Scores 0.8 FIC on the HCA

I've never seen an FIC in person, but the idea of one intrigues me. I don't know if I should take a chance on this one or go for a TIC instead. I don't know if it makes any difference, but I'm looking for a center stone for a 3 stone ring. The other stones will be 20 pts each and won't be FIC's.

You''ll never know you until you purchase it. Just choose a vendor with a good evaluation period and good return policy.

40.3 pavilion would be better there might be some contrast issues up close but if the lgf% is long enough it could be fine.

Do you have an IS image?

I think there are better choices quality wise, but I was intrigued by the concept of a FIC so I thought I'd consider this one.
