12.05 ct Oval Laboratory-Grown Diamond

78/100 · Considered

A balanced profile with a few questions to carry forward.

What reads well

A 1.62:1 length-to-width ratio is outside the classic oval range; the outline will look more elongated than typical.
The table 65% sits outside the typical oval range.
A 54.5% depth is shallow for an oval; check images for a see-through window in the centre.
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.
Treatment status is not stated on the report. For a laboratory-grown diamond, ask whether it is as-grown or post-growth treated.

Table · Closer look: A 65% table is larger than typical for an oval (53–63%). Large tables can read bright but flatter, with less fire and contrast.
Total depth · Closer look: 54.5% is shallower than typical for an oval (58–63.5%). That spreads the stone face-up but raises the risk of windowing — a glassy, see-through center.
Length-to-width · Favorable: A 1.62:1 outline is longer and slimmer than the classic 1.3–1.5:1 range for an oval — a matter of taste, but worth seeing in person.
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: Slightly thick (faceted): a durable girdle thickness that doesn't hide meaningful weight.
Culet · Ideal: Pointed: no visible culet facet when viewed face-up.
Color · Ideal: F is in the colorless range and faces up white in any metal.
Clarity · Ideal: VVS2: inclusions, if any, are only visible under magnification.
Fluorescence · Ideal: None: no meaningful effect on appearance.

With a shallow 54.5% depth, can you see a glassy, see-through patch in the center?
Does the large table look bright but flat, with less colored fire than you expected?
In a face-up video, does the bow-tie flicker as the stone tilts, or stay a fixed dark band across the center?
Can you show me the inscribed report number under a loupe before it is set?
