wooo to all
Have looking around and much decisions I put the 2.36ct RB back in layaway. Anniversary is July 7th.. Hoping hubby lets me get it out sooner. We are going to New York City for a week in June would love to have that sucker on
I went to several jewelers and looked at stones. This stone comes from a small local jeweler, not the high cost fancy one that just about wore me out with my side bands...hehehe. He is just a small local guy that gets one big stone here or there. Normally only deals in 1.0ct or smaller. He called me a while back and said he had the stone. I went and looked at it, loved it and waited on the certificate. When the cert. came it was a EGL stone rated at SI3.... I was bummed. The stone was a BEAUTY but the rating made me worry. So I took it off layaway and he put it out. After looking and looking I just kept thinking about that stone. The jeweler was giving me a fair price and trade and the stone is really really nice and clean except one small feather on the side that can be hid with a prong!! I have seen SI1 and SI2 with more flaws than this stone. So I went back in today and talked to the jeweler. He marked the stone down to $8800.00. I just don''t think I can pass it up. I have seen it and it is GOURGEOUS!!!
The picture is really poor. I will try and take better ones. The stone is really white....
Here are the specs. Please tell me if I am missing something bad.
Please tell me if this is a bad deal! I feel comfortable with the visuals and brillance of the stone but need to know if I
