I''ve narrowed my choice to two stones. Below are the figures. At least the one''s I remembered to write down. I''ll probably take both stones to David Atlas''s AGA for independent appraisal before deciding, since these are from a store right around the corner. Asssuming both pass with flying colors, what would you recommend? Setting will be either in 14K white gold or Platinum, ring being a 0.30 tcw channel bead set.
