IS Diamond 2:
Gemologist Opinion:
"I am happy to tell you that the gemologist found the 1.50 carat-H-VVS1 (diamond 1) to be the best performer of the three. It has an excellent amount of brilliance (white light return), with a great amount of fire (dispersion of color) and sparkle that is well balanced and symmetrical. It is a true "H" in color and faces up a nice white. The 1.60 carat-H-VS1 (diamond 2) is a very close second. It has an excellent amount of brilliance, fire and sparkle that is also well balanced; it was just a little weaker than the 1.50 carat. It too is a true "H" in color and face up a nice white.
Is it just me or does it look like the first diamond was tilted in the IS? Should I be worried that the first diamond is not XXX as well? Between the two I probably would have picked the second one, but the gemologist seems to think differently... Which one would you choose? Thanks for the help!!!!
