GIA report 1553609316
2.21 ct Oval Diamond
81/100 · Considered
A balanced profile with a few questions to carry forward.
What reads well
- A 1.40:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic oval range.
- Face-up spread (10.40 × 7.44 mm) is typical or better for a 2.21 ct oval.
- Table 63% and depth 62.1% fall in the typical oval range.
- Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
- Medium blue fluorescence can make J color face up a touch whiter in daylight.
What deserves a closer look
- Clouds are referenced on the report; confirm the stone looks transparent rather than hazy.
- Confirm this SI1 oval is eye-clean from an image or video; the report plot shows where inclusions sit.
- Feathers are listed: check the plot for any that reach the girdle or surface, which matters for durability.
- J color in a 2.21 ct oval may show some warmth, especially at the tips.
- Screening only: for this oval, check images or video of the exact stone for the bow-tie (a dark band across the centre) and whether both ends look even.
The reading, field by field
- Table · Ideal
- At 63%, the table sits within the typical 53–63% range for an oval, balancing brightness with fire.
- Total depth · Ideal
- 62.1% is within the typical 58–63.5% range for an oval, keeping weight where it contributes to face-up size and light return.
- Length-to-width · Ideal
- A 1.4:1 outline is within the classic 1.3–1.5:1 range for an oval.
- Polish · Ideal
- Excellent polish is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
- Symmetry · Ideal
- Excellent symmetry is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
- Girdle · Ideal
- Medium to thick (faceted): a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
- Culet · Ideal
- None: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
- Color · Favorable
- J may show slight warmth at the tips of an oval, especially next to white metal. Yellow or rose gold tends to complement it.
- Clarity · Favorable
- SI1 is often eye-clean in an oval, but not always — check where the inclusions sit.
- Fluorescence · Favorable
- Medium Blue fluorescence is rarely visible in normal lighting.
What to check on the exact stone
- Does the diamond look crisp and transparent in natural light, or is there any milky haze?
- Does the feather reach the outer edge where a setting prong could put pressure on it?
- Can I view this stone in daylight to see if the blue fluorescence helps it look whiter?
- Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
