Need help between two stones!

[ccoughlan]

Hello!

We are deciding between two stones, please let me know if you have thoughts or if we should start at square one (details below). I am concerned about light performance and if they will appear dark in the center.

Thank you!!!

Hi there! Pics and/or videos would really help PSers give feedback.

Based solely on the proportions and angles, I would definitely say #2 with the 40.6/36.5/57 combo may be worth getting more info on.
Are you able to get ASET or Ideal-Scope images to assess light return?

 

[ccoughlan]

Thank you both! We will be looking at a few more options and will come back with pics.

I'd lean toward the second based only on numbers. It wouldn't be an instant "yes!" though without pics/vids

Hello!

We decided not to go with the last two stones but curious to get thoughts on this new one, sorry the pics are a bit blurry! It will be set in yellow gold. Curious if the I color should be seen as an issue? In my opinion it still looks very bright face up but wanted to check!

The new stone looks like a much better option than the original two you posted.

I color will be nice in yellow gold IMO.
