Hello Everyone!
First of all, let me start by saying what a great site! I''m a new person trying to understand engagement rings and after reading this forum, I was able to go into a jewerly store and comprehend with the sales rep.
I''m having a diffcult time deciding a .94 carat or a 1.01 ct. My gf has a size 4 finger, so I''m guessing both diamonds would look big on her. My questions Im trying to answer are: What would be the best price for what I''m getting. And what does a cut 61% total depth with 56% table always result in the most sparkle? I want something that has a lot of sparkle and fire, would i find it in these two examples or am I completely lost? LOL
A. .94 ct
--or--
B. 1.01 ct
Both are great diamonds, but would you rather have something a fraction smaller with greater color/clarity, or bigger with just a slight difference in color/clarity?? Suggestions or anything would help!! I''m looking to buy in 3 weeks.
Thanks so much!!!
