So far, the stone looks excellent! However, do you have any more information such as color/clarity (is it eye clean?). How about the certification and an ideal scope information just to make sure?
 
Thanks kcoursolle! :)

It''s a AGS 0 VS stone. Anything I should watch out for this particular stone?

Would one be able to describe the ''characteristic'' or ''personality'' of this stone from the numbers?

Thanks!

It''s most likely a real dazzler! It should show a good balance of white light and colored light and should be an overall excellent performer. Since it''s high clarity and AGS, there isn''t much to worry about. As long as the vendor is reputable, the price is reasonable, and you are fine with the color, then I think you should be fine.

Just to cover all of the bases, what is the girdle on the stone? As long as it''s not "very thin" then you should be fine.

Hi Zeiss,

The diamond looks great! We can''t really judge the personality of the diamond, but suffice to say by the numbers it should be a great performer.

Do you have the diameter measurements also for the sake of completeness?
 
Hello,

Girdle: Faceted 1.7 - 4.1%
Measurements: 6.95 x 7.02 x 4.30 mm

My vendor sent me images of the diamond (attached) but I have no idea how to interpret the image.

Thanks!

Zeiss

It''s a 1.28 carat diamond. Am I seeing leaks under the table?

I''m sure there''s another one out there for you, and if you''d like any help finding one, just ask.

Thanks Ellen.

I have been eyeing this diamond for so long and I''ve got myself emotionally attached to it, even tho I have never seen the real thing.

The diamond was offered to me at a little over 10k, it''s a 1.28Ct E VS2 round diamond. I just did a search from the "Search by Cut" tool but I couldn''t find one that come close.

Do GOG or Whiteflash offer stones of ''better'' or ''similiar'' quality?

Thanks!

Sure. Most of GOG''s will be better, as most are H&A, and you do pay for cut. WF has the Expert selection, which are geared towards value, and many are just off from the ACA title.

Would you be willing to lower your color preference a bit? If so, I think we can find you a stunner! Down to G is safe at almost any size. I have a 1.40 G from GOG and it''s seriously nothing but white.

And you''re welcome!
 
Hello,

I''m "allowed" to drop the color to a "F", which is the absolute lowest color I''m "allowed" to consider.

Thanks Ellen for letting me know that the one I have missed is not a TRUE H & A stone, there are better stones out there! :)

lol Ok, are you "allowed" to drop the clarity any? Otherwise, we may be looking at a slightly smaller size, unless you can up the budget.

And you''re very welcome.
