I think the experts here need to know the dimensions and the cutting... and if possible, scope pictures.

Dimensions if you got the GIA number, pple can search online for them.

I am afraid this may not exactly be a gd choice.
1. The girdle - The best girdle thickness is Thin, Medium or Slightly Thick. Diamonds with Thick, Very Thick, or Extremely Thick girdles weigh considerably more.
2. The Depth is too deep. There probably will hve more light leakage.
3. The table is kinda big
4. The crown angle too steep
5. The dossier does not show the location of the inclusions.
6. Have u seen the stone in person? Is the stone mounted?
7. Never get full carat diamonds eg 0.5,0.7, 0.9 or 1.0
8. Search on bluenile they hve similiar spec stones for $7k+ without setting. Whiteflash at USD 7k+ virtual stk without setting.
9. HCA is 4.3 - Good - Only if price is your main criterion

I agree with Lurker_13.. The diamond is not a good choice.

My super ideal cut is a 0.91 F VS2 is already about the same size as your 1ct diamond and even cheaper.
The measurement is 6.19 -6.21 X 3.83.

Fellows, am searching for Wedding Band... Has anyone tried vivodiamond? If yes please help to post some reviews. :)
Their price seem attractive though.

As for JP, any idea if they focus on Proposal or Wedding Band?

Saw the goldheart celestial series and they cost 6-8k, am thinking if JP's will be better priced.

I see a prominent leakage at the 11oclock position.
But it's likely because of this little flaw your diamond is at least 1k cheaper than the super Ideal. It might be a blessing in disguise
Apart from that everything else looks good!
