The stone is has nice brilliance- but I can't decide of I love the shape.





The 50% depth means this sucker is HUGE for it's weight......
Any and all comments are welcomed!!! ( even if you don't love heart shapes!)

I prefer a shorter, chubbier heart but there's no doubt it's a beautiful stone.  The more I look at it the more I like it.

I think a stone such as this can be used in a halo necklace and be absolutely gorgeous and stunning, especially at that depth.  But not so easily in a ring where I think you need the chubbiness and associated width to spread across the finger.

I like it, even if it is a bit skinny.  So's my sister, and I like her, ok.  Evil

It looks like it has plenty of sparkle and brilliance, it is a pretty darned high white, so if you can pick it up for not too dear, I think it would turn around fairly rapidly.  Being on the Tunky Fart side of the hill, I'd love to see it as a halo ring, or brooch, or necklace.  I think the halo could give it a bit of extra girth and be a sensational piece.  drool

I like it - I'd wear it as a ring.  Most of the heart diamond rings I see have that kind of diamond in them rather than the chubbier kind.  I'd be happy with either!

I voted "maybe."  My decisive nature is coming out.  Roll Eyes

I do tend to prefer the chubbier pears, but this one does have a pretty pleasing shape.  I think I would be more inclined to like it as a pendant than in a ring.  If it was in a ring, maybe bezel set like Lynne's heart?  I can't imagine it with side stones for some reason...  maybe my imagination just isn't good enough today.

I too normally lean towards chubbier hearts, but I think it would look lovely bezeled Smiley 

Maybe its just me, but is the stone assymetrical???  If so, then that would bother me more than the skinniness of it.

It's a bit tall for my tastes (I like them like this  heart2, when I like hearts at all) but I agree with Mikla; it'd look great in a necklace.

Not for me. But then again, I don't like hearts in general.

I think it will looks great in a bezel.  I would like a fatter one in a ring, but for a necklace it is great.
