I have been working with a local metal smith who is a professor at the University. I want to get a 1/2 carat diamond ring with a platinum cathedral setting. I have the following specifications. He is getting three diamonds in this week for me to look at that meet these criteria. What would be a good price to pay for such a diamond. 0.5 carat Ideal Cut (good score on HCA) Color: F to G Clarity: VS2 to SI1 Let me know what you think of these specifications and what pricing would seem fair. Thanks a lot. I don't have a lot of money to spend, but I want to get the best ring possible. |

You should pay about 1100-1700 on the internet for a nice ideal SI 1 F-G... Add a few hundreds for a VS 2... Since you're buying locally, expect to pay about approx 1400-2200, depending on the jeweler and stone... Giangi _____________ |

I am actually also looking for a similiar stone and this is the price range I've been getting as well: 1,400 all the way to 2,200 for hearts and arrows .6 carat SI1 H or maybe G color. Also, does anyone have any opinion on what are the most important cut-qualities for top- quality diamond in this size? The H&A looked impressive but a little icy, maybe there's ideal cuts that have more fire instead? Is that a function of table/ pavilion/ crown angle? And would you just have to go by measurement ranges or pictures when shopping online or does anyone recommend a dealer in So. Ca? Thanks. StoneSeeker
