Thoughts on this oval diamond?

[layercake11]

Hi all, can I get your thoughts on this oval diamond? My wishlist is that it is eye clean, faces up white (in a yellow gold halo setting), good fire and brilliance.

We've started explore more lower color grades, as I've seen a few in person and was surprised at how nicely they present (and in white gold for that matter!). This would allow us to move up in clarity, because eye clean is hugely important to me.

Thoughts appreciated!!

will you be happy with strong fluorescence? Just for comparison purposes:

These are 'virtual' stones, i.e. not in 'stock'.

Thank you! I do not mind fluorescence, as it will not have an impact in how it looks in standard settings. Likewise, I’ve read (including from GIA site directly) that strong blue florescence can actually have a positive effect on I color and below diamonds. So I view this as a non issue or even potentially a good thing for this stone

I guess you are still on the hunt because you have a prior thread.
I did post this on that thread, post #16. Hope it was some value. Good luck.

This stone is a lot better than the 1.5 "I" you were asking about.

Why you ask?

The darkness and whiteness/brightness you see in the north circle and south circle should flash on/off as the stone is
rocked north/south. Those should be well-defined facets that return light nicely.



Here is the 1.5 "I" so you can see the difference. Unfortunately, the photog setup is different between stones but I hope you
can see the difference.
