Hi All,
Thank you for taking the time to review. This stone was recommended to me and trying to explore all aspects of it before deciding to move forward on this one or keep looking. The stone will be for a solitaire engagement ring. I have seen pictures but won't see the stone in person till it arrives.
The HCA is 1.2 but I'm a newbie on this trying to learn how to read the Hearts and Arrows image and rationalize the results. When comparing against Ideals can see the differences but in terms of classifying the category on this stone I'm unable. Also unsure on how impactful this is on the stone after set when viewed under normal day-to-day conditions.

I'm a fan of this stone due to the measurements for the weight and being eye clean. But realize it's proportions are outside what some users have stated as cutoffs.

Appreciate the community’s overall thoughts balancing out all the metrics on this stone to help me come to a decision.

Thanks in advance

This what we refer to as a 60/60 diamond which means a table of 60 and depth of 60 or close to it. This diamond has the personality to give more white light return and less fire. It does fall outside of recommended ideal proportions and most people on PS favour a more balanced stone.
 
I suggest reading on 60/60 by doing a search here on PS. There are some beautiful 60/60 stones.
