Original GIA Report ships with diamond.  We also include our comprehensive appraisal for identification or insurance purposes. How much will my new diamond appraise for?

This is a Fancy Intense Yellow in desirable carat and a quarter size ring. The stone was cut to have great color. It broadcasts the yellow loudly.

It was cut to have great sparkle- which it does.

It was cut to have good visual size for it's weight. Which it does.

But it was not possible to cut a perfectly symmetrical diamond and achieve the other goals. It's symmetrical in it's outline- important for working well in a ring.

What is not symmetrical are some of the facets on the back of the diamond. This has little effect on the overall visual presentation-even looking with a loupe you'd need to look hard. It does however, affect the price to a large degree. Probably 35% less than a VS1 stone with VG symmetry.

The slight feather visible in some of the photos is why I grade it SI1.

Perfectly eye clean in person.

This setting was made for the diamond. The stone works amazingly well as a solitaire. The contrast with the white gold is stark. We made the shank in 14kt White gold, and the head (part holding the diamond) in 18karat yellow Gold
