Proposal Ring - Part 3

[KingKenny]

Hi guys,

Just got these specs (images below) from JP. A bit concerned on the following:
(1) ASET image - quite a number of white areas at the circumference
(2) Girdle is Med-Slightly Thick. According to http://yourdiamondteacher.com/diamond-4cs/cut/, super ideal cut should be Thin-Med
(3) Crystal, Cloud, Needle, Feather - So many types of inclusions!

1. ASET looks standard for a Super Ideal.

2. From what I know, as long as you avoid the two extremes then should be fine.

3. I believe JannPaul has checked the locations of the inclusions and the eye-cleanliness of the diamond before passing it as a Super Ideal. So you can rest assured.

Arrows looks straight to me le. I used ruler on my monitor screen and can't find any misalignments

The girdle is normal.

The inclusions is only the inclusion types. More type doesn't mean worse. Eg. it has 1 crystal type inclusion, but it can also mean it has 10 cystal inclusions.

hi, thanks for your reply, i didn't notice that too! will that be an issue? overall is the diamond ok to purchase?

If you are bothered by the slight misalignment, then request for another diamond with the same specs. If you ask me, I think it will not be visible to the naked eye.

Haha bro, you might have mixed up my comment on the arrows misalignment. That one is for the Solasfera bro. This Super Ideal looks fine to me.

You look at the 12 o'clock arrow body and arrow head bro. Both are not aligned.

This looks very similar to the scope images I've gotten from JP. My ASET image has a bit of white on the circumference as well. Mind if I ask about the specs of the diamond?

I think is normal for this type of cut??

Mine 0.43 carat the aset scope looks almost like that too.

Can but not signature cuts lar. Normal 0.7x carat 3Ex ideal cut at JannPaul costs from $4,000 up. A simple 18k white gold solitaire setting only around $800.

ah, okies, think should be ok ba. haha. thanks!

ah, okies, think should be ok ba. haha. thanks!

Actually i was thinking that it should be photo issue. Solasfera is a patented cut, the alignment cant be off, and if it's off, many more facets should be affected and should logically ends up failing the ASET scope?

Best is you check with them.

Request for Ideal cut preferably G color VS2 and see what size you can get....i'll strongly recommend at least get an ideal cut.

Getting a ring, how does Meyson compared to JP?

I found a diamond 0.91 G VS1 and the HCA score is 1.3
Light return - Excellent
Fire - Excellent
Scintillation - Excellent
Spread - Very good

Does this mean its good already? I don't need a the color and clarity to be too high. As long as its bright and sparkling, can already.

HCA is only to eliminate very bad ones, but you need ASET scope to check whether if yours is a good one, it could just be an average diamond.

Low HCA score doesnt mean its good. Lousy diamonds can have low HCA scores too. After you find a diamond with a low HCA, use the ASET scope to further check.

You shld watch this

Thanks. I was confused about it. The jewellery shop sales guy told me the HCA is good enough and the aset scope not accurate, no need to use. Then another shop told me GIA cert excellent cut can already. I dunno who to believe

View all together. Those who say no need this no need that are hiding things from you or just don't know enough.

That's why this thread support JP because JP show you everything, aset, hca, gia, hearts and arrow (if applicable), they even show you the real thing and not only images, make appointment and they got these scope you can view it yourself and judge, the sales assistant will even bring you outside the shop to see how 2 diamonds of different quality look when under sunlight.

That time I bought my wedding band from another shop and I happened to see their engagement ring and MY GOD that diamond is YELLOW to the naked eye, I don't even have to try. Heng already got engagement ring from JP.

That's true. Only JannPaul let customers snap photos like no tomorrow haha. Throughout my 5 or 6 visits there to view diamonds and settings, I have snapped more than 100 photos haha!
