Max33 Rough Rock Total Posts: 1 Last Post: 12/22/2004 Member Since: 12/22/2004	Any advice on choosing between the following rings: 1.1 ct. round center stone (2) .5 ct. round side stones 2.1 ct. tw. Color H Clarity SI1 Russian Cut Gold band, white gold setting $8500 .9 ct. round center stone (2) .4 ct. round side stones 1.7 ct. tw. Color G Clarity VS2 Russian Cut Gold band, white gold setting $8000 Both rings would be coming from a trusted jeweler who is a friend of the family. So, quality and workmanship is not an issue. Unfortunately, we don't live in the same city, so I can't compare the rings in person. I have her opinion, but I'd be interested in others. (Even if they are just anonymous internet postings!) My girlfriend puts a higher premium on quality than size. But neither of us are interested in having me pay for something that you can't notice with the naked eye. So, based on this limited info, does anyone have an opinion on whether the increase in size in the first ring is worth the lower clarity and color (or vice versa)?
