Hello! Long-time lurker. What a wonderful community here. Over time I've learned so much from the posts, replies, stickies and Knowledge page. Thanks so much!
I'm narrowing down my search for an EC for her engagement ring. I'm reaching the point where I can't really proceed much without actually seeing them in person. Because of that, I'm curious if you could take a look and point out anything worth...pointing out!
It's been some time, but I actually used to sell engagement rings. I remember enjoying whiter stones, but I'm also a believer that one can typically see size before color (for example, a passer-by is more likely to notice a 0.25ct difference than a G-to-F difference). That said, all of the ones below are within my personal range, so I'm open to any thoughts. In particular, I'm also curious about your thoughts on table%/depth%, as well as length/width. I understand the latter is pretty personal. I've read that a 1.5 ratio is the "norm" but I think I tend to like things to be more square to rectangular, if I had a choice. I'm just not sure where things actually begin to square off. Perhaps a 1.35 ratio?
It's my first time doing this, apologies if I've left anything out. All the GIA certs look pretty similar. The recipient is a lovely, youthful gal who will truly enjoy any of these stones. I'm eyeing Victor Canera's Evelyn Setting. I think that's about it for now.
