OK, six jewelers loupes. I'm calling that "galore"
So, here's what you've got to do to win, if winning a jeweler's loupe sounds like something you'd like to do..

I'm going to post photos and a video of a diamond graded by GIA , you're going to guess the color.

NO guessing till I post a video of the stone- I mean you can, but you'll be guessing at a disadvantage as others will see the upcoming video. I should have a video done tomorrow.

The first six correct guesses win a ten power jewelers loupe.



Here's photos of the subject of this contest.









Good luck one and all- all are free to enter.
The contest will run till Dec 20
Reserve the right to add rules I forgot since we haven't run a contest for a while


PS
Just for fun, I invite you to guess the table size. The table is the flat part on top of the diamond. The size is described as a percentage of the total area comprising the top of the diamond. For example- a 60% table.
I've crudely outlined the the table of the contest stone here.

This is an area near and dear to me- as the trends in diamond cutting have gone in one direction. To the disadvantage of round brilliant diamonds in general, I believe.

Look at OMC jumping right in before the movie.   

That's fine. It's to offset my natural advantages...

(actually, I totally missed the bit about the movie, but who cares; it's for fun!)

Now, if the prize were the diamond, one might have done things more carefully.

Annie, you are TOO funny. 

(Actually, we ALL know that NO ONE, I mean NO ONE, can come CLOSE to being as "modest" as DJM). 

That rather depends on who wears them. Ahem.

Modesty is my middle name. Coyotes are well known for their modesty. And what am I, but a modest coyote (who doesn't read posts carefully)

HI Everyone!

omc- maybe the photo with the lines I drew is throwing you off a bit...hint: I probably drew the lines on the inside of the facet where the table meets top corner- plus the lines I drew have thickness

OK...WAIT JUST ONE MINUTE!

Can you all give me an example of when I was being immodest?  And what's with the doctor dig?

On the off chance you are still referring to the "DARE", all I can say is:
"MOVE ON FOLKS"  Geesh, it's like wearing a freakin' "scarlet A" around here.

Don't listen to them OMC.

As promised, the video


The diamond is just a little bit below 1.00ct djm!

OMC_ this time you overshot on the large side.
But we're getting there!

It's a visualization thing.
One would need to be able to look at the entire top of the diamond, and see how much space the table occupies.
Hint: its smaller than 60%

Sheesh!  I'm just gonna sit back and enjoy the fun!  My eyes are so bad a loupe wouldn't help me at all.      

Table=54%
Color= fancy intense pinkish brownish greenish yellow
Fluoresence= strong blue

Sparkly

Fancy brownish yellow, table 57.5%

That was my first guess but I changed it!!!!!!

fancy light brownish yellow, S-T range
47% table
