I want to purchase the Brilliant Earth "Petite Twisted Vine" engagement ring setting in platinum in a size 7. That leaves $4,300 in my budget for the round-shaped diamond itself. For convenience and time I would like to purchase a diamond from Brilliant Earth such that I can have the entire ring shipped to me as soon as possible. Can someone help identify a diamond that is currently available on Brilliant Earth that would work the best with this particular setting within my budget? I am having trouble figuring out what specifications are best and have run out of the 3 initial free HCA calculations. Thank you!

Only Trade people are limited to three HCA scores a day, I thought?

I’m honestly unsure what will look best. I was thinking super ideal with E/VS2/around 0.85. But this is after limited research since I am knew to this. So if you have better ideas on what’s best to make it look beautiful within my budget, I am open to ideas. Thanks!

Id highly recommend shopping around beyond brilliant earth for diamonds, even with a short time frame. I personally found their prices to be very inflated for the same stones (literally the same stones)

Try one of the ps vendors many of them have diamonds on hand which will greatly speed up the process. I also personally had great success with Martin at USA Certed diamonds.

Every setting is made to fit a specific size range of stone. What size range, preferably in mm, does the setting you bought allow?

Options a BrE. They call these "super-ideal", but that is not the case. They are simply using that term as a sorting criterion for stone within a set of angle ranges.

I love stones with character.

I like steep crown angles and the ASET shows this is a very well cut stone.

The second stone rockysalamander recommended looks very nice and would be a good choice. The first stone she linked has a carbon inclusion just outside
the table at 12 oclock she probably didnt see.
