Your thoughts .....would be greatly appreciated!

Aloha guys!

i found this time online & wanted to see what your thought on it are:

Carat: 0.90
Cert: GIA
Cut: Ex
Color: J
Clarity: VS1
Depth: 59.7
Table: 59
Crown Angle: 33.5
Pav Angle: 40.8
Girdle: Medium(Faceted)
Polish: VG
Symmetry: Ex
Culet: None

it scores a 1.2 on the HCA, but the Depth/Table percentages are what Im wondering about since the Table seems pretty large compared to the depth...

Ill try & post a picture of the diamond(suck @ this computer stuff so not sure if i can figure it out)...they dont have idealscope pics so Im not sure.....your thought would be greatly appreciated!!!

It's very nice.

Dimensions and price, please?

 

[stone-cold11]

Yap, looks good. Table is slightly larger, some prefer that.

 

[BigPhilly808]

here are the dimensions:

6.28 X 6.31 X 3.76

and priced @ $2452

 

[JulieN]

Dimensions check out (wanted to make sure you were getting the size benefit.) And the price is good.

Do you have it reserved? Please reserve it before you answer my second question: which retailer is offering this?

 

[BigPhilly808]

hahaha! thanks for that advice...i will let you know once tis on reserve

Isn't this an example of a 60-60? You might find this informative: https://www.pricescope.com/wiki/diamonds/60-60-proportioned-diamond

I mean, this looks like a good 60-60, but just to be aware of the possible issues ...

Angles are complimentary so nothing to worry about, 60/60 or smaller table size. It is a worry when no angles are presented, as some jeweler will automatically assume a stone is good as long as it has 60% table, 60% depth.

The stone is slightly shallow AND it is painted. That is a bad combination.
The stone will have reduced contrast and will perform well when not facing directly at you and from a arms length. But not well face up and close up.
On the plus side - it has a great spread.
I would recomend it for earrings and pendants.
For people with good close up vision it is not so hot - if you use it as an Ering - the wearer can hold it away a little from the other girls in the office

wow really? thanks for that tip Garry! when you say it is painted, what do you mean by that? And is that something you can see in the picture? That way I can look for signs in future prospects! Thanks again for your help!!

Perhaps some nice person will link you to John P's article.

That's funny. That was my intuition from looking at the picture without being familiar with of any of the technical details you mentioned. It just didn't look good to me.
