So, I am not new to the forum, but I have been rather shy about posting my ring, since it was purchased pre-pricescope. I would like to know if by looking at the stats, anyone can tell me how bad or good the stone really is. Don't be afraid to be honest. Thanks.

EGL USA
1.43 carat
round
7.47 x 7.34 x 4.36 mm
depth: 59.0%
table: 58%
crown: 11.6%
pavilion: 43.4%
girdle: thin to medium
cutlet: small
polish: good
symmetry: good
color: g
clarity: vs2
flor: none
 
1.9 according to the HCA - I think you did well for a pre-PS purchase!

Thanks for your reply. Wow! Can't say how happy I am to hear this. Ever since pricescope, I am very insecure about my stone.
 
I'm not big on numbers but you could buy an aset scope or idealscope and see for yourself how good the cut is? i think you can use a beginners aset scope on a set diamond but im not sure on idealscopes
 
Please post pics! We want to see.

I noticed it has a small culet. Is this a modern round brilliant or an old cut stone?
 
working on the pictures, but i only have my phone camera. it is a modern cut.
 
Considering it's pre-PS and EGL... you did great.
 
Thanks for your opinion. I am very tempted to sell it so that I can purchase autumngem's 1.97 carat.
 
Going bigger is so tempting. Prior to PS, I always though 1.5 ct is huge and couldn't imagine going bigger. Then I got my 1.7 ct and was like .. whoa this is it. With all the 3-4 ct around, I am getting totally immune to size.
