I apologize if this has been posted before, or if there is a link here and I missed it. When I tried to search, nothing came up, so I may have been putting in bad search criteria, or there may really be no posts about this.
After learning about AGS ideal stones, Hearts and Arrows and ACA at Wf and seeing all the images at GOG, I think I have a pretty good grasp of what a well cut stone looks like in those images. I have seen some pretty ncie stones in person and I have seen a few dogs that are a sea of darkness when you look at them with a loupe.
I am curious as to what an average or poorly cut stone would look like under the ideal scope and the hearts and arrows images. I do not own an IS, so I''ve never tried to use one on a mediocre stone. I would be curious to see some of the images we have grown accustomed to seeing from online vendor and for well cut stones on an average or poor stone. I would like it as a point of reference.
Does anyone have this or know where I can go to see some images?
