That does look really nice. im happy I came on this forum and didn't go with what I was originally going to do. Thanks for all of your help!
Yeah that is going to ASET out poorly. Did you get the ASET on the 1.2 I posted for you. 1.3 and 1.2 in cushions is not a meaningful size difference don't skip lovely stones because of you inexperience. A well cut stone always looks better and bigger than a poorly cur stone. And with cushions I keep telling you this but you aren't getting it: dimensions not weight matters.tyty333|1469799264|4060520 said:diamondrookie22|1469798311|4060513 said:http://www.b2cjewels.com/dd-8469303-1.50-carat-Cushion-diamond-G-color-VS1-Clarity.aspx?sku=8469303&utm_source=pricescope.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=pricescope.com
Obviously id have to see it in person to know for sure, but what do people think about this diamond? Seems pretty reasonable.
See if you can get an aset on it. Looks like it is going to be fuzzy on the inside rim of the table. Aset will show if true or not.

This is within your budget, has a vintage look and faces up large. It is a J, but you can ask Grace how white it looks and if it is eye-clean. Not a cushion, but lovely old-world charm.

This is a cushion within budget. http://www.oldworlddiamonds.com/diamonds.php?ITEM=diamonds&SHAPE=C

ETA: THis says it's for a round.... not seeing this setting for a cushion, i hope i didn't rais hopes for nothing!
If you did that other Stuller setting, i'd definitely do an infinity style wedding band with it. But you say she adores infinity signs so i think the infinity in the gallery may not be for her.
Color does not = quality. Some people LOVE warmer stones. Myself, one day would love to have a K+ colored pear. Love them SO much.
Near colorless is not easy to distinguish by just anyone. i wouldn't be adamant about an E or F unless you know your girlfriend is truly color sensitive. Usually the artist types will be able to see color in a near colorless stone. Some G stones will be closer on the spectrum to an F and others closer in spectrum to an H. You can always have it inspected or compared to an F stone before buying.
Good summary on near colorless stones:

Unless you're certain she'd look at the stone and immediately know that it's not an F colored stone, i wouldn't dismiss the option.
Yes it is on A_F scale. I can look for.you later. Hold off for now.diamondrookie22|1470774793|4063996 said:Is that a B on an A through F scale? Do you think it is worth it for the price?
