58/100 · Investigate

The report asks for a more careful visual review.

What reads well

SI2 is often not eye-clean in a cushion; view an image or video of this exact stone.
Clouds are referenced on the report; confirm the stone looks transparent rather than hazy.
Surface-reaching characteristics are listed (cavity); check their position on the plot for durability.
Very thin to very thick girdle: a very thin edge raises chipping risk (thicker points are common in fancy shapes).
Screening only: for this cushion, check images or video of the exact stone for the facet pattern (bold, chunky flashes or finer "crushed ice") and any dark areas under the table.

Table · Ideal: At 61%, the table sits within the typical 56–66% range for a cushion, balancing brightness with fire.
Total depth · Closer look: 69.4% is deeper than typical for a cushion (61–69%). Extra depth holds weight below the girdle, so the stone can face up smaller than its carat weight suggests.
Length-to-width · Ideal: A 1.01:1 outline is within the classic 1–1.35:1 range for a cushion.
Polish · Ideal: Excellent polish is the top finish grade — facets are cleanly executed with nothing that would soften sparkle.
Symmetry · Favorable: Very Good symmetry is a fine result; the difference from Excellent is rarely visible without magnification.
Girdle · Closer look: Very thin to very thick, faceted: 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 · Ideal: F is in the colorless range and faces up white in any metal.
Clarity · Closer look: SI2: inclusions may be visible to the eye. Confirm with images or video before buying.
Fluorescence · Ideal: None: no meaningful effect on appearance.

With 69.4% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 3.00 ct cushion?
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 you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
