New Member looking for stone suggestions in 2 carat range

[ManAboutTown]

I'm looking to get engaged in the next 3 months or so and am SO glad I've found this site. You guys seem really helpful!

I'm thinking about a 2 carat round diamond in a simple solitaire

My budget is around $25K (just stone)

I'm thinking of the following criteria: (although I'm open to feedback)

Cut - Excellent

Color G, H or I

Clarity VS2 (eyeclean SI1??)

Angles: (as I currently understand it)

Table 54-58%
Depth 60-62%
Crown 33-35%

I'm totally open to online vendors, seeing the success people here are experiencing! I will mention that I'm in NYC and if there are any vendors that I could go to, such as GOG etc; that might be interesting, but not a requirement.

Thanks very much for your consideration!!!

I see 2 Whiteflash stones ( so far limiting to VS2 and not SI1)

AGS 104074032001

AGS 104071131016

sorry I haven't figured out yet how to link the stones here......

Also looked on Crafted by Infinity website. How should I go about narrowing those down?

Just cut and paste the link right into your post. That's all you need to know.

As for Infinity: http://www.winkjones.com/index.php?page=view-id-diamond-infinity-new&id=1265 This is the best one (and it's a sweet stone) in budget.
