I recently got a bug to upgrade my pendant. I bought a .305 bezel set pendant in February of last year, but it kept rolling and as a result I never wore it. The diamond is beautiful and I think I will get another similar size stone and reset it in a pair of earrings. I had planned on just changing the setting to a three prong, but I looked on the WF website and thought, do you really want to change the setting now and upgrade later this year? Well, clearly I decided I didn''t want to do that. They had two stones in the .60ct size and I called Bob and asked his opinion on them. He said that this would be his pick and I went with his judgement. Thanks Bob! : ) I know the .60 are hard to find so I wanted to jump on it. I had planned the three prong pendant, but I also like the symmetry of the 4 prong, plus the 4 prong meant that they could do it in a matter of days. I sent my "proceed" email and faxed my CC authorization over on Wednesday at about noon EST. I picked it up from Fedex the following Friday morning. How is that for quick!!
The pendant is stunning. I also like how the .598 is still bigger in diameter than the .30 in the bezel setting. I doubled carat weight and went up substantially from a visible perspective.
Specs:
Report: AGS
Shape: A Cut Above H&A
Carat: 0.598
Color: I
Clarity: SI1
Depth: 60.1
Table: 56.1
Crown Angle: 34.7
Crown %: 15.3
Pavilion Angle: 40.6
Pavilion %: 42.7
Girdle: Thin to Medium Faceted
Polish: Ideal
Symmetry: Ideal
Culet: Pointed
Fluorescence: Negligible
Measurements: 5.49-5.52X3.30
HCA: 0.6
Setting:
Platinum 4 prong basket fixed on a 16.5" 1mm platinum chain.
I absolutely cannot tell a difference in colour between the G and the I. Both are beautifully white to my eyes - lucky me!
I have a bunch of pictures to follow. Thanks again to Whiteflash, especially Bob Hoskins. A pleasure to work with you again!
I wish you well,
Bridget
