looks a little deep with thick girdle.

On the deep end and the thick girdle is a waste of beauty. What is your budget? People on the forum could suggest you some nicer stones. Here is a link to help you with good proportions and ranges.

Grr! We can''t seem to get this right!

We are trying to stay under $5000.

We would like at least an si2 (si1 is preferred), 1 carat. At first, we were only considering F or better in color... but since we want yellow gold, we heard that the color doesn''t really matter as much.


Thanks for all of your help so far, everyone. This is so frustrating! lol

Nice Work Mrs. W!

I agree if you are putting it in yellow gold I would also take advantage of that and save a few bucks!
