Looks like they are on the way (no longer available) so congrats! Looking forward to your science-y pics.
Remember when mrs-b said JA was trying to look up her skirt?
Welllllll I got the stones today. Not fluorescent enough for me, sadly. The M colored one just looks a little whiter in the sun. The D is much closer to what I want, but i think the fluor isn't strong enough for me. I see it, but it isn't super strong, milky, etc.
Both are going back. I'm super paranoid about taking stones out of the protective box once I decide to return because I have this fear they'll get damaged. I'll try to take pics tomorrow before I return, but no promises haha
I'm so sorry these weren't the ones. So the search will be back on again in a week or so?
here's a small D Medium Milky Very Strong
0.40 Carat Natural Diamond, Round Cut, VS2, D Color, GIA Certified
Round cut, 0.40 carat natural diamond, certified by GIA. D color and VS2 clarity. Priced at $481, 55% lower than our fair price estimate.www.rarecarat.com
OMG, I’m obsessed!
Lovedogs, are you sure this isn’t “the one”? It is both a unique cut, nice size, and really unique flourescent “color”. The only high flourescent diamond I saw in person once was a deep blueish violet. This one glows pinkish faint violet, so incredibly unique. (I’m curious about what flourescent color you are looking for, just for my own edifcation.)
VSBs
A smidge over budget. I like that 1.17...how yellow is that K?, although it is probaby not a PS sanctioned cut. It has that look that brings me in...extreme clarity look. I can't explain it. 3.9 HCA Leave it to me to like funky/not so pretty stones.

Best chance of a strong overblue is vsb+si2 clarity based on clouds not shown and also gaining not shown comments.
To get a strong overblue you need high reactance+a lot going on in the stone.
It will also likely be a bit milky even without UV.
The thing is the most of those get filtered out before entering the US market.
