My heart diamond from JannPaul is also flawless.

Don't want show. Nanti my girlfie know. After my proposal then only show.

Hehe.

Now working with event planners, videographers and her siblings to make it a big surprise! This is the proposed location.

Hahaha yup that's the one.



That hut has seen many weddings, ROMs and marriage proposals.

Yea man. As what Master kambingkoh said, RM12,000 very hard to get a 0.75 carat liao nowadays. A year ago maybe, cuz our MYR was still *relatively* strong against the USD. Now you need to look at at least RM15,000 and above for 0.7x stones. I am talking about those with good cuts, not those anyhow cut ones with the H&A senget here and there macam kena belasah by the cutter.

As for Tiffany & Co., one word: FOOK IT! Ohh, that's two words, my bad. Why?

Read this: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-43...vercharges.html

Both also E colour and VS1 clarity, how come the price differ so much one?? That's more than RM1,000 for the 0.03 carat increment bro! I believe there must be something not right with 5182302471; either that, or you silap put the price tag.

But you wrote you prefer the 0.37 one wohh. Like that better get a 0.39 to maximise carat weight haha.

No bro, what I meant is for him to try and look for a 0.39 to maximise carat weight.

Ohh my gods bro. Have you bought it??? If you haven't then better don't get Forevermark bro. I saw their diamonds before, totally not worth. You are paying more for the brand.

Ohh OK.

Mind sharing its certification number for the pros here to have a more in depth analysis?

Ohh my gods 62.9% depth ahh bro???



Sorry to say that your diamond will not look like a 0.46 carat bro cuz of the deep cut.

I don't understand why he wanna go for the big brands and sacrifice cut. It is not like watches or handbags where people look at brand names first. Very seldom we come across people asking for the "brand" of the diamond.

Yes lahh, getting a Tiffany or in his case, a Forevermark for the future wife will make her feel good, but that's all about it. When she compares the bling factor with other super ideal cuts out there, I don't think she will feel good anymore.

I have seen a Forevermark diamond under various scopes. Fulamak!! Don't know how it made it to 3Ex man. Arrows all senget, light leakages everywhere, really facepalm.

I guess that's what you get when you self certify your stones.

"Tak ada 3Ex, kita bina 3Ex!"

18kw? 18 kilowatt ahh bro?



Can give more details ahh?

Carat?
Colour?
Clarity?
3Ex? 2Ex?

If can, provide the GIA/AGS/IGI cert number too, thanks.

Very sound advice from the pro.



beast_doadore What he said is true bro, you can't really compare the average diamond size between Malaysia and the US. They are earning USD bro, we are earning MYR here, so our purchasing power is very much diminished because of our relatively weaker currency.

It all boils down to your budget. You set a budget, then work out the 4Cs from there. If your initial budget is RM10,000, stick to RM10,000. Of course, plus minus a few hundred is fine lahh. RM10,000 can only get you a 0.5 carat stone, so what? My friend got his then wife-to-be a 0.33 carat ready-made ring from SK, and they are now happily married with one daughter.

Got consider princess cut bro? Much cheaper than rounds.

Buy loose diamond and customise the pendant setting lohh.

Since you guys so happily post drillz of your diamond, I also post mine lahh.



It is a 0.74 E IF heart brilliant.

Kindly share your thoughts.

I see, thanks for the compliments.

The shape of heart shaped diamonds or generally, fancy shaped diamonds are more of a personal preference. Some prefer it to be slightly elongated, while some prefer a slightly plump shape. Unlike round brilliants whereby they have a set of strict requirements, fancy shapes do not. This is because the stone is cut for its shape and not to maximise brilliance. As long as the viewer finds it sparkly and likes the shape of the cut, then he/she is fine.

In particular for heart shapes, JannPaul recommend the slightly plump version, or what they call the "happy heart". It does give the illusion that it looks bigger carat for carat compared to an elongated heart.

In terms of the 4Cs, it is advisable to get 0.5 carat and above and not less than F VVS. As heart shapes do not have as much light return as rounds, body colour and inclusions cannot be masked as easily. This I have to agree with them cuz I personally compared a F colour and a G colour heart shaped diamond, and the difference is very much distinguishable even under LED lighting.

So there you go folks. My humble findings on heart shaped diamonds. Hope this helps you guys in searching for your own fancy shapes.

I am sorry, but I seriously LOLed at that.

The things a girl can do to get something that she wants.
