2.33 ct Marquise Diamond

87/100 · Refined

A strong candidate on paper; confirm its light pattern in imagery.

What reads well

  • A 2.15:1 length-to-width ratio sits in the classic marquise range.
  • Face-up spread (14.62 × 6.81 mm) is typical or better for a 2.33 ct marquise.
  • Excellent polish and symmetry, the top finish grades.
  • VS1 clarity is typically eye-clean in a marquise.
  • Faint fluorescence: no haze risk to weigh.

What deserves a closer look

  • I color in a 2.33 ct marquise may show some warmth, especially at the points.
  • Screening only: for this marquise, check images or video of the exact stone for the bow-tie and whether the two points line up end to end.

What to check on the exact stone

  • With a shallow 57.6% depth, can you see a glassy, see-through patch in the center?
  • In a face-up video, does the bow-tie flicker as the stone tilts, or stay a fixed dark band across the center?
  • Will the ring setting use protective V-tip prongs or a bezel to safeguard the two delicate points?
  • Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
