I think I'm set on G to get a bit more carat size... is this a good decision or should I get an smaller F?

If we're talking a real GIA or AGS graded "G" it's a great color for all but the most color sensitive people around. A G is going to be a great value for most people!

A G is going to be a great value for most people! I agree! G would be fine for MOST people if it's a very well cut RB. What shape stone are you planning on?

For me G would be splurging! Since I'm a size girl, I wear an I (which I love), but if money wasn't an issue, I'd get a G. I don't think I would actually pay for more than that.

Depends on what is more important to you ... size or color? G is a great color and is near colorless. Many people are hard pressed to tell the difference b/n D - F range and G, therefore, if size is important to you, "G" is for "GO for it!" If it is a "mind clean" issue, then stick with D - F range or else it will always bother you. For whatever it's worth, I am a D - F girl typically, however, I know for certain b/c I've seen them, that there are tons of G's out there that would more than make me happy. The difference b/n say F and G, for example, is so subtle that it is likely not even noticeable many times once the diamond has been set. This is, of course, given that we are taken about well cut and accurately graded (AGS/GIA) stones. Good luck with your decision!  * Too much of a good thing can be wonderful * ~ Mae West |

Definitely go with the G. Unless you are extremely color sensitive, you won't be able to tell the difference. The majority of the people won't be able to see the difference between the two colors.

I love "G" color. I have an H, and it is extremely white. I vote "G" and bigger size!

H-K with strong blue fluorescence might also be worth a look...save big $ money or go for a larger stone. |

Nothing is more sacred as the bond between horse and rider...no other creature can ever become so emotionally close to a human as a horse. 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 |

Definitely go with a G. I have an I and it's icy white so a G would be amazing!

Date: 1/22/2008 9:37:56 PM Author: neatfreak If we're talking a real GIA or AGS graded 'G' ... This is key. Many people try to get a 'feel' for color grades at jewelry counters in commercial markets. Not apples to apples. If you're rolling with GIA/AGS it's a wonderful option. John |

If it is GIA or AGS "G" this will be totally white, I would even go down to an H!!!

I personally think "G" is a great color for value! I personally would go as low as "H-I" for some cuts.

I have an "H" and it appears VERY bright and VERY white in most lighting conditions. Here are a couple pics! http://www.pricescope.com/idealbb/view.asp?topicID=77041 I would definitely be happy with a "G" color diamond!

Hello! I think a G stone will be perfect! I'm no expert by any means but I've learned a lot here on pricescope and have been blown away by how white J stones look!! So I think a G will be awesome!! Good luck!!
