I Love My Sailor Cut Rock Total Posts: 240 Last Post: 11/14/2009 Member Since: 1/29/2009	Hello Pricescope, I put another ring on lay away today!! My camera is dead but I plan on going back to the store later today to snap a couple of photos. The stone is uncertified weighing about 1.10 carat. The store gave me the option of sending the diamond to GIA but will include an appraisal from the store at no extra cost to me. The color is M or N and clarity is eye clean, that good for me. I'm not sure of the specs but its a beautiful stone. Its currently in a pave setting with pave on the prongs as well but I really don't want pave and herd they can be a pain with loosing stones so, they will rest the stone in a more simple setting of my choice. The price is 3,066.00 which I don't think is bad at all. Should I have it sent to GIA? It does look a little deep...maybe? but I still love it!! My e ring is a .84 but its an early RB cut very shallow with very little table or griddle so it faces up nice and big. so I am use to my shallow diamond, it could just be me. Pictures will come but could someone give me a good link to N or M color stoned Thanks

I would have it appraised or certed before I purchase. You don't want to pay for excess depth (that you can't see) that affects the light return of the stone. Halfway down this page is LittleGreyKitten's M colored stone. It is hard to ascertain diamond color from photos, though. http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=113724&pageNo=7 Honestly, 3k is high for an M-N colored stone of that weight. Coati, G.G.

When a horse dies, the memory lives on because an enormous part of his owner's heart, soul, very existence dies also...but that can never be laid to rest, it is not meant to be... - Stephanie M Thorn
