3.00 ct Radiant Diamond

54/100 · Investigate

The report asks for a more careful visual review.

What reads well

The table 72% and depth 80.3% sit outside the typical radiant range.
Face-up area is about 18% below typical radiants of this weight, suggesting hidden weight in depth.
Very Good polish / Good symmetry is below the Excellent/Very Good standard and can soften sparkle.
Extremely thin to extremely thick girdle: a very thin edge raises chipping risk.
Screening only: for this radiant, check images or video of the exact stone for the sparkle pattern (defined flashes or "crushed ice") and any dark or see-through corners.

Table · Closer look: A 72% table is larger than typical for a radiant (60–70%). Large tables can read bright but flatter, with less fire and contrast.
Total depth · Closer look: 80.3% is deeper than typical for a radiant (61–68%). Extra depth holds weight below the girdle, so the stone can face up smaller than its carat weight suggests.
Length-to-width · Ideal: A 1.29:1 outline is within the classic 1.2–1.5:1 range for a radiant.
Polish · Favorable: Very Good polish is a fine result; the difference from Excellent is rarely visible without magnification.
Symmetry · Closer look: Good symmetry is below the grades most buyers target and can slightly soften crispness. Worth seeing the stone in person or on video.
Girdle · Closer look: Extremely thin to extremely thick: thin sections of girdle are more vulnerable to chipping. A setting that protects the edge is sensible.
Culet · Ideal: None: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
Color · Favorable: G is near-colorless and faces up white in most settings, though a radiant can show a hint of warmth at the corners.
Clarity · Ideal: VVS1: inclusions, if any, are only visible under magnification.
Fluorescence · Ideal: None: no meaningful effect on appearance.

With 80.3% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 3.00 ct radiant?
Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
