1.50 ct Round Brilliant Diamond

40/100 · Investigate

The report asks for a more careful visual review.

What reads well

  • D color is in the colorless range.

What deserves a closer look

  • SI2 is often not eye-clean in a round brilliant; view an image or video of this exact stone.
  • The GIA cut grade is Good: the lab's own assessment points to less brightness and fire than its top tier.
  • Crown 39° / pavilion 42.4° fall outside the pairing zone associated with strong light return.
  • Table 64% and depth 66.6% sit outside the preferred round range.
  • Slightly thick to very thick girdle: a thick girdle carries hidden weight and can reduce face-up size.

What to check on the exact stone

  • Does the center turn dark or lose sparkle when you tilt the diamond face-up?
  • With 66.6% depth, does this stone face up smaller than a typical 1.50 ct round?
  • Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
  • Is this SI2 diamond eye-clean face-up from about 10 inches away?
