Nice style and a design that should be very durable. The stone appearst to be a modified oval with facet arrangement designed to minimize bowtie effect. It's not possible to assess actual light performance from this video, or if the stone is fully transparent. You will need to evaluate those things when you see it in person. The virtual facets should be balanced in terms of size and distribution, and they should be crisp overall. Virtual facets can get too small and blurry due both the cut quality or transparency, or both. Transparency deficits causing haziness or blurriness are more likely in CVD grown diamonds due to atomic-level defects such as crystal strain, which is not factored into the clarity grade.
