Proposal Ring - Part 2

[Scylla]

Can refer to this article on how to rate H&A. Quite well written and detailed.

good read.

mine almost no gaps between hearts and arrow heads

Got more info here.

The gap is caused by the lower girdle halve length. If the longer the length, the wider the gap. Both are ok. As long as they are all equal length and symmetrical its ok.

nice

The lower girdles affect the appearance of the diamond by its H&A pattern, its contrast pattern, and its light performance. Longer lower girdles produce thinner arrows and have more pin-fire flash. They can make the diamond look brighter when coupled with shorter star facets. Shorter lower girdles produce thicker arrows and bolder flashes. The lower girdles and the star facets can be combined to optimise for bold or pin-fire flash.

think aga aga based on numbers like hca tool still need to see aset scope

another good read http://www.hrd.be/en/download-file/d=a5bfc9e07964f8dddeb95fc584cd965d

apparently small but clear gap between V and heart is desired as its guidelines.

Green and red is just a matter of angle of reflection right? in the end it is still shiny.

Green is not good my friend.. Green and white area won't be shiny

That ASET scope is a "Poor" light performance according to the chart

You can see it in here too

 

[Scylla]

green is less intense light return iirc

Finally got time at home to upload them
The Asscher got no fight next to the Octavia. The more I look at the diamond, the more I like it..

This one is with the LED bulbs. Super sparkling. I saw some of you bros bought the ring box that comes with the LED light right? So this should be the same effect

This one is with the fluorescence light tube. They say the effect is similar to a cloudy day.

I must say, their service is very good. Their staff Sam offered to help me do a nicer video of my diamond for me after learning that I was planning to use it for my proposal video.. Or maybe because he saw my video taking skills very noob

Very chio eh! So obvious the Octavia looks better. Good choice bro!

PM me the link / photo, I can help you to post here



Ya.. Those are display sets, so they will order a new one for you. This is what I heard from them previously, you can check with them.

For House of Hung, they will make new ones for you as those on the shelves are just for display purposes. I like how they are able to customise the designs for you. Personally I really lvoe the look and feel of Platinum, so I told my fiance back then that I don't bother that much about the diamond as compared to a platinum band haha! I like how it really feels like a metal because of the weight. Our wedding bands (shown below) are also made with 95% platinum. My fiance finds it a little heavy.

For those who are thinking whether to choose white gold or platinum for wedding bands, I think it's best to match the same metal as the engagement ring (because both white gold and platinum have slightly different hardness, which may end up 1 scratching the other). Also, please do try the weight of the rings too. We tried some platinum wedding bands at Love & Co, and we felt that they weren't as heavy as compared to those from JP (or house of hung) One reason probably may be due to the thickness of the bands (I don't mean the width of the ring).. Yet, when we questioned the salesperson, she told us the density of platinum is lower than that of gold (and I rolled my eyes ).

Happened to accompany my friend to SK. Was quoted around 3k for a 0.5c ideal cut. Seems quite ex?

The lady also said its from Belgium, better than from South Africa

triple ex? colour? clarity? carat alone cannot determine price about the country of origin I'm not too sure.

Hi guys!
Just purchased a Brian Gavin Blue diamond and hoping to hear your opinions on it!
It's a 0.717 I VS2 Signature Blue Round, triple ideal, strong blue fluorescence. Price is ~ S$3200 which I thought was pretty good?

Looks very yellow and bluish. I dont think its a good diamond.

Google Brian Gavin Blue.. pretty well reviewed and seems like an interesting alternative at a much cheaper price than the typical colorless diamonds we are used to..
