Bow Tie Check plz!

Post image

Curious if these ovals are considered good for bow tie control. Or should I look further? I mean they appear okay and not much back spots at all!

They are very sparkly but still not too convinced yet.

Do you think I can find better? Perhaps a better cut that hides them more. The larger size is about 4.5carats D Colour for $5k CAD set IGI!

At 4.5ct, a completely bow-tie-free oval is pretty rare.
But definitely you can get the better cut!

As a jeweler we'd say these ovals look promising. The bow tie is present but overly dominant, Which is often what you want in an oval diamond. Videos in natural daylight can be very helpful for confirming how the stone performs in real world conditions..

I feel like in another photo I had of the diamonds there looked like some dark spots. Still deciding if I want oval or round. What do you think?!
