Get an 1.51 H SI1 (white small inclusions) graded by EGL, ex, ex, looks well cut in pictures HCA - 1.2 according to the angles, identified as eye clean by the vendor in a 14k white gold solitaire setting (that you prefer aesthetically).
or
1.47 H, SI2 (no magnified pictures or inclusion plot) graded by GIA without a cut grade or angles to run the cut, but looks well cut, eye clean according to the vendor, in a designer pave setting 18k, that you are not that crazy about for about $1000 more than the first ring?
My obvious gut tells me that I would rather get the GIA stone based on the fact that it is GIA alone and looks well cut, but I hate to spend the extra grand to end up with a setting that I am just so, so about.
