I just want to point out, I notice pricescope lists a diamond concierge service:

Premier Diamond and Jewelry Community | PriceScope

PriceScope is the largest Diamond and Jewelry Community with Diamond Search and Comparison Tool, Diamond Consumer Forums and Diamond Guides

www.pricescope.com

I think what it basically is professionals help you pick out diamond(s). I haven't used it. I just noticed it is there.

my original diamond was a 1 ct from blueline as well. when I researched for an upgrade, I also came to the forum for help. people here are super helpful. So I am not discrediting the help that people here are giving, in fact I value them immeasurable. I am just listing some other options for you to consider.

While I was debating on my upgrade, I stumble on

@uyalison Thank you for the information, I’ll definitely look into them!

@Karl_K I appreciate the explanation even though it’s a little complicated to my comprehension. But I kinda have a sense of what you are saying. So would be it easy for human eye to detect excellent scintillation from very good? I apologize for the excessive questions, just trying to make sure it’s gonna be my perfect diamond! Thank you again!

In my search recently I have been looking for diamonds with more scintillation under the table as @Karl_K mentioned. I love that look and I definitely can see it, even when I have compared them side by side with super ideals. I have seen a AGS 000 (non-super ideal) next to super ideal and I notice that the non-super ideal seemed to show more fire / scintillation from under the table. I think I prefer larger tables and a little steeper diamond. But I can also appreciate the stunning beauty of the precise cutting of a super ideal. If
you can see the contrast as enhancing the beauty of the precise cutting you will notice a different kind of beauty. I think both types of diamonds can be very beautiful. It just depends on your preference.

It should have excellent scintillation, I would not call it very good at all taking into account the info the hca does not use.
The difference between an ideal cut type and a 60/60 type is eye visible but well cut I would not call either bad.

@LLJsmom @Karl_K Words can’t express my appreciation for all the super useful information provided. Thank you all again! I have never seen a 60/60 in person and honestly just heard it for the first time when I was going through previous posts in Pricescope during my diamond search. And I haven’t really examined any other diamond close up other than my original diamond, which was probably cut to the super ideal standard (if considered that). So at this point, I guess I will just have to see the diamond in person and it’s scheduled to ship in two weeks! It will definitely be a very anxious two weeks for me! But I will definitely post pics when I receive it! Thank you all again for all of your inputs, I’m truly truly grateful that I’ve found this community! Happy holidays to everyone and best wishes!!!
