The Ring

The
Daussi Cushions are a lovely colorless Pair.
I love the
way they look as side diamonds



Custom made
14karat white and yellow gold setting.

Can a diamond graded "Fair"
Symmetry be pretty? Could it even be well cut?


GIA grades
diamonds for Color and Clarity- that's widely known. Although GIA grades the cut
of colorless and near colorless diamonds it does not grade
fancy shaped diamonds for cut.
There are
categories that relate to cut- and it would be easy to assume that if the "Polish"
and Symmetry" are both Very Good, the cut is very good.
But it's not
nearly that simple.

The
diamond is not symmetrical- I can see it in the photos. Theoretically, all
the facets on the bottom of the diamond should meet in the center of the
diamond. The spot where they meet is called the "culet" The culet on this
particular is off-center.
I'll admit
at first blush I was about to dismiss this stone.
But I kept
looking at it. More accurately, I could not take my eyes off it. The fact it was
not symmetrical didn't matter.
It's
really nice looking. Other than the symmetry, everything is really nice on
the stone. It's a VS1- extremely clean.
The color is
very strong for Fancy Yellow- the stone is close to Intense.
The "Fair"
symmetry is reflected in the price which is at least $500 less that it would be
if it had Good ( or better) symmetry.
I
believe you get a very good idea of the sparkle and beauty of this diamond in
the video.
