so I’m purchasing an engagement ring and am looking at oval diamond. I know I am putting a lot of pressure on myself because I want to get the perfect diamond. I’ve found myself trying to assess diamonds by the numbers. I know these numbers play a significant role in the way the diamond looks, but being able to view the diamond itself is critical. I’ve been told many things from different jewelers and sometimes they contradict each other. Then I look online at what’s recommended and I begin to second guess myself. I’ve began to think a little more about brilliance and fire. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Btw, this is the diamond I’ll be taking a look at tomorrow (I’ll add GIA # after I view it). What should I be asking or looking for?
