Hi everyone, it’s been a long time since I was active here, but I just got this 1.5 carat, LSI1 OEC from lovely Jocelyn at Gilded Lane. What does everyone think (I don’t have her yet)?
My new OEC!

Here she is mounted in platinum (but the setting is a little crooked & it’s being redone)

I think I'm jealous as it's the sweet spot in size for me. If it was a P or lower, we'd have to physically fight for it.

Can you post the GIA report showing the clarity plot? I am wondering if the grade setting inclusion is that large whitish blob under the table, and if so, it sure looks like it will be eye visible. I’d also like to see a profile showing the crown height. The table is a little larger than I might like in this make and wonder if obstruction under the table will be an issue.
It’s a “Diamond Dossier,” so no plot. The grade-setting inclusion is a feather.

Well listen, I’m noticing the tone here in RT when it comes to old cuts these days is pretty non critical. If you like that vibe then ignore my post.
I would ask about that visible mark under the table in the videos to make sure it’s not an inclusion and just to know what it is.
I’m not wild about a 51% table with a 66% depth. With that depth I think a smaller table is usually more compatible and this combo could lead it to be a little darker in the central area than one light ideally prefer. If you care to evaluate this ask for pictures resting between the fingers with the camera looking straight into the table, ideally in natural light. Also similar photos (between the fingers) in a range of lighting environments including indoor and in unflattering lighting.

I appreciate the honest feedback.
I’ll do this! Thank you so much for your help!So I am NOT knowlegeable about this but after reading a few threads about OECs… it seems that SOME obstruction (that’s what we’re talking about, right?) is pretty common in these stones, no? Like… is some amount of it to be expected? Or am I way off?
