I'm still becoming familiar with all these things (like AGA cut class), so I'm not entirely knowledgable. I want to buy a Blue Nile signature ideal cut round diamond.
The diamond I'm considering got an HCA score of 1.4. Light return, fire, and scintillation were all graded excellent and spread was graded very good.
On the AGA cut class grader, the diamond got a total grade of 4A. Doesn't this mean that it is a below average cut? If it's getting this overall grade, should I NOT buy it? Here are the details from the AGA grader:
Length:6.83
Width:6.86
Depth:4.22
Total Depth:61.65%
Table percent:57
Crown height:61.6
Girdle (from):Medium
Girdle (to):Medium
Polish:Excellent / Very Good
Symmetry:Excellent / Very Good
Crown angle:34.5
Pavilion depth:40.8
Tab Percent: 1A
Crown Angle: 1A
Crown Height: 4B
Pavilion Depth: 3B
Girdle: 1A
Depth: 1A
Polish: 1A
Symmetry: 1A
TotalGrade: 4A
It is a signature ideal cut from Blue Nile, 1.21 carat, D, VS1.
