I am going to spend approximately $2300 on a stone for my engagement...
So far I have narrowed it down to ideal cut, D color VS1 or better stones in the .60 carat range....
I cannot go up in size without drastically affecting the price, so I would assume I''ve already decided on my purchase.
Just getting one more thread full of advice before I ship out the loot!
I tried cutting the corner in the Color and Clarity areas, but found that it does not affect the price enough to sacrifice either....
Does this hold true everywhere? And does the price sound appropriate for a stone of this description?
It has all the desirable crown and pavilion angles, wonderful clarity, nice depth and so on...
Basically I''m asking....Is there a way to up the size without sacrificing noticeable attributes? Ideal cut is a must, so as I said I think I''ve about reached the end of decision road.
Regards,
Seth
