What
is the "perfect: shape for a marquise diamond. If you shop most internet sites,
the shape is broken down to a simple formula. 2:1 or something like that.
I'll
bet there's a chart somewhere purporting to know which is best.
EXCUSE
ME, but I do not prefer allowing others to decide what is beautiful to me!!
What
if I like a really long slender Marquise- maybe that's the shape that works best
with your finger.
Another aspect common to many diamond selling sites on the web is the lack of
photos.
The
photos are how we can demonstrate to you why we own this diamond- and why you
might like to purchase it.
This
isn't a long slender marquise. Rather it's a more "Reubin-esque" shape. It's got
a little meat on the bones- but not too much.
I find
it quite seductive. Of course this is a personal thing.
The
color is another aspect worth discussing.
GIA
graded the diamond K color. That means it's got a slight tint.
I hate
the term "off white"- this color isn't off anything! There is ZERO
reduction in sparkle due to the K color. It's just got a warmer sparkle. Many
people might fin this actually preferable.
An
important aspect to all this is that a K color is about 40 cents on the dollar
as compared to a D color. Buys you a whole lot more diamond! Even in an ultra
clean VVS1 clarity, the K color is still affordable.
