Hi everyone,
What a fantastic world we live in where I can sit across my screen in Sweden and have a chat with you all.
I'm searching for a diamond that is going to be set on a wedding ring. I don't see it as an actual investment so I'm looking for a diamond that gives me the best bang for the buck. In other words, I don't want to pay extra for anything I can't see with my bare eye. If it doesn't make a difference to the beholder (my wife to be) it's not worth my money.
I've done some research and I'm thinking about settling with a 1.00 CARAT K-VS1 Excellent cut round diamond on a 18k yellow gold setting. I've chose the color grading to be as low as possible (k) since the diamond will be on a gold setting and excellent cut since I've read that it's what matters the most. Here is the diamond: https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...k-color-vs1-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-1534442
I've been reading some more and some sites suggest even going as low as SI2/SI1 to save money because the difference would be none to the eye vs a VS1. I found a diamond, but according to some experts the inclusions will be visible to the eye. I don't know if this is bullshit or not so I really want a second opinion from you guys. Here is the SI2 diamond:https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...k-color-si2-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-1769776
All help and general feedback is much appreciated!
Best regards
Parto
