Which diamond is better? BN Signature Princess

[smtevo]

Which of these diamonds would be the better choice? I am going for more of a sparkle than anything else. On the GCAL report I see that one has light leakage in the middle and the other one doesn't, does that effect anything significant? Please just tell me which diamond would be the best of the two and not that I should go somewhere else to purchase my diamonds

Since these stones are "In-house" I would call BN and ask them to compare them side-by-side and tell you what they see.
They both look to be beautiful stones but I like the faceting pattern on the second stone better. The slight leakage in
the middle of the first stone is no big deal. A lot of princess cuts have that.

You are paying for very high clairty...any reason you dont want to drop down to an VS1/2 and save money? (or go larger)?

I was told that I would be able to see the inclusions with a naked eye on the VS1 and VS2s, was I told wrong? I wouldnt mind going down to save some money.

Those look very nice, how do you get those to show up on BN? I can only get GIAs to show up.

yes you should not be able to see inclusions with the naked eye on VS1 and VS2

If you change the diamond polish and symmetry to excellent and ideal search look for the ideal polish and symmetry those are AGS ideals.

You should not be able to see anything in a VS1/2. A lot of PSers drop down to eye-clean SI1s to save money or go larger
(we mostly go larger )
