Hi,
I'm looking at engagement rings with the Petite Pave setting in 14k from James Allen.
I'm looking for the best 1.5ct stone, with a budget of ~$10k. A couple questions:
- Would I be okay dropping to a H color/SI1, in order to meet my budget?
- Would I be better off going with I color and VVS2?
I found a couple that looked good using the HCA tool:
1.51ct, H, SI2 (GIA 6225545935):

1.50ct, H, SI2 (GIA 5226330915):

1.50ct, H, SI2 (GIA 6231232037): the largest inclusion seems to be on the outer edge of the face; can the setting prongs be placed to cover it?

Thanks in advance
