Your thought on these proportions please.

[mwilliamanderson]

I contacted Wink and Melissa at WolfCBI last week to talk about resetting my CBI into a white metal and going from a full bezel to a semi bezel. To make a long story short, I heard about the LGD they’re selling and asked to see their inventory. I’ve recently become enamored of Garry’s Round Brilliant Diamond Visual Tendencies chart and am intrigued by the idea of owning either a Bright BalaInced or Fiery Balanced diamond. Do any of you own a diamond in either of these proportion categories and do you love it? Of course they have a bunch of the Tolkowsky (All Around) proportions that we all like and recommend but I was intrigued by these two in particular. I’ve had an I and a G so I’m not concerned with the color here, just interested in thoughts about the proportions on these two diamonds and which one I should consider. Or should I stay in the recommended Tolk zone. Thanks for your thoughts!








Here are the certificates from the stones in question.

Thanks for weighing in DejaWiz. I’m leaning towards the fiery one myself!

Thanks lovedogs. I know you've owned many different cuts, have you had something like this 40.6/36? I was so excited to see it!

Here are a couple videos showing two diamonds that musicloveranthony owns...the loose diamond is a 40.8/36.5/56 with 75LGF - very beautiful.

Thanks @DejaWiz! I had seen that beautiful diamond but hadn't paid attention to the proportions. It's killer, and I really like that unplated metal too.

I haven't owned anything with those specific proportions, but I'm sure it will be gorgeous!

Yes! I love it I have it in a tray in my room with a few pieces of gem rough that I have. So, I look at it almost every day
