Cool New I1 Princess Cut- How can an I1 be nice?

« on: April 28, 2008, 08:45:39 PM »

SO, if a stone has this much imperfection, I would grade it I1.
But that does not neccesarily mean it's a bad diamond.

Many people equate clarity with overall quality ( especially sparkle)

A flawless might not sparkle like this I1 if it's not cut as well.
BUT- the problem I see is that many times what's passed off as an I1, is far worse that that......

What a pretty stone! I love the sparkle and the rainbow colours inside it. It's a nice size and price too.

This would make a stunning engagement ring.

Any setting plans? I could totally see it in a split shank with double claws, with or without a halo. It has real presence. Yellow melee would be nice, too.

Normally, I'm not a fan of Princess cuts (I realize and totally respect the fact that the shape and cut looks phenominal on most.. but not me). But, even as a die-hard anti-Princess cut gal, I must say that this diamond looks exceptional. I can see why it is in inventory. Gorgeous, clear crystal. And, yes, I actually LIKE it... very much! Evil

I'll bet that it is one of those diamonds that you just can't stop watching.

I love this diamond and I actually like princess cuts with some color. Sure you can see the glitch with the arrows but I can tell you that you'd not be able to see it easily at all. The faceting is absolutely superb. It think it's the slight color that makes it show so nicely, too. It's a real winner. If it were mine, I'd have to do double baguettes.
