Hello Everyone on PS,
I discovered PS last week and it has been a great help for me since I am currently in Dubai looking to buy a stone for my gf's e-ring. Thanks to HCA I was able to rule out the poor performers. Now I have three candidates but I would like to listen to what the experts think.
Here are the options
all three have cut EX polish EX sym EX
a. 1.53ct G VVS1 Flr: Faint. Total Depth: 59.4% Table: 59% Crown Angle: 31.5 Pav Angle: 41 Girdle: Medium slightly thick (faceted 3.5%) Cutlet: None
b. 1.53ct F VVS2 Flr: Faint. Total Depth: 59.4% Table: 59% Crown Angle: 33 Pav Angle: 40.8 Girdle: thin to medium (faceted 3%) Cutlet: None
c. 1.51ct F VS1 Flr: None. Total Depth: 60.7% Table: 58% Crown Angle: 34 Pav Angle: 40.8 Girdle: medium (faceted 3.5%) Cutlet: None
Is fluorescence a big factor ? and what about BIC vs TIC ? For the setting, should I go with 18k gold or platinum?
PS: I am basing my purchase solely on the certificate, as the stones are outside of Dubai. All three stones are within my budget but I want to make sure which one I will be getting the most of it.
Thanks in advance
