Hello Pricescope
I am looking for advice on a LGD Cushion cut. Here are the specs I am targeting:
1.8-2 ct
Square Cushion Brilliant cut over the Cushion Modified Brilliant (e.g., crushed ice)
Color: D, E, F
VVS2 or better
Ratio: 1-1.1
I have also considered table, depth, and girdle but I'm not sure what are good targets. Here is what i have been using:
Table: 61-63%
Depth: 62-67%
Girdle: Thin to Slightly Thick
Other considerations/questions
-I noticed there are online stores that sell loose diamonds for considerably cheaper than other stores. However, these vendors tend to have limited options for settings. If its possible to find a good diamond at a good price from an online store that can also set the stone that would be ideal.
-Related, since cost varies a lot between stores i have some flexibility here. Ideally, i would like to buy the stone for <$1000 but would be ok going higher for quality.
Finally, here are a few stones i found. Would be curious to know if they are good choices (prices might not be the best from the listed seller)
