OK, so I got my diamond yesterday and got it appraised today. WOOO HOOO! I am very happy with it...the specs are listed somewhere but basically it is a 1.78 G SI1. It appraised for around $2K more than I paid. This was a truly independent appraiser. Of course, I have to go back once it is mounted.
Now, on to the setting *sigh*...I''m having a hard time visualizing exactly what I want. I''ve printed out several pics and like aspects of many of them. I have an appt with the jeweler sun. Any suggestions to make life easier for them? Here''s a pic the guys at DCD''s took for me (I can''t figure out how to take a decent macro shot on my DRebel). I think it has a lot of scintillation for an EC. The steps are awesome and I like the more pronounced clipped corners (wasn''t sure I would). It has like a 1.5:1 ratio, which I also like. Thanks for all your help in assisting me to find my diamond!
