This video compares a loose white sapphire vs a diamond engagement ring for their performance.

In the first segment, we compare the appearances of these 2 gemstones in office lighting to see their contrast patterning and brightness.

In the second segment, we place the white sapphire beside the diamond under sunlight environments to assess their fire and sparkle factor.

As you can see in both these tests, the diamond ring is hands down the better option. The white sapphire is inherently hazy and is poorly cut.

White Sapphire Vs Diamond - Side by Side Comparison

$6 Prong White Gold Tiffany Style Diamond Ring on Finger (0.616ct H VS2) For more indepth readings into diamond details, go to: https://beyond4cs.com/color/h-diamonds/ https://beyond4cs.com/color/choosing-a-diamond-color/ In this video, we have a spectacular treat for you as we review a super ideal cut hearts and arrows diamond. In a Tiffany style 6 prong diamond engagement ring, a 0.616 carat diamond is mounted on a setting made of 14k white gold. Here are the specifications and details of the AGS certified diamond: SHAPE: Round CARAT WEIGHT: 0.61 COLOR: H CLARITY: VS2 CUT: Ideal POLISH: Ideal SYMMETRY: Ideal FLUORESCENCE: Negligible L/W/D (MM): 5.44*5.46*3.38 L/W RATIO: 1.00 DEPTH %: 61.90 TABLE %: 56.10 CULET: Pointed CERTIFICATE: AGS CROWN ∠: 34.50 CROWN %: 15.10 PAVILION ∠: 40.90 PAVILION %: 43.20 The total costs of the ring cost in at around $3000 and it is a fantastic deal. If you were to buy a similar looking ring from Tiffany or a branded store, it would cost you at least twice as much and you also end up with a diamond with lesser cut quality. This diamond was handpicked for its ideal proportions and cut performance. Its light return and precision were analyzed using the idealscope and hearts patterning images provided by the vendor. Using the same exact proven method I teach on Beyond4cs.com, you can also select a perfectly cut diamond like this. And as you review the video and watch the ring being worn on my finger in different lightings, you will see that the ring is full of sparkle and displays intense fire properties. When the ring is reviewed in spotlight, the diamond facets act like mirrors to reflect and refract light. Can you see the 8 distinct black arrows when the ring is brought upclose? In other lighting conditions like daylight and shaded outdoor environments, the diamond looks really bright and has great scintillation. Now, I want to emphasize that this is only a H near colorless diamond. Yet, it looks extremely white and if a D color diamond was placed beside it, I can tell you that most people would not be able to see differences. In the diffused light environment, it is the most unflattering condition to look at diamonds but yet, the diamond can hold up because of its ideal cut properties. FYI, the finger size is 7 and the engagement ring is worn on a relatively large sized hand. Do you think the 0.6 carat diamond is too small or do you think it is proportionate to the size of the finger? Also, what did you think about the simple look of the diamond ring? Are you a solitaire person or are you someone who prefers more elaborate settings like halo or pave? Finally, what did you think about the diamonds performance and sparkle? Which lighting environment did you enjoy looking at the most? Leave a comment below! I love to hear what our viewers think!
