Any diamond suggestions for a RG pendant

[Staceyjan]

I have a Plat .35 pendant in an I color from BG and I love it but now am itching for a RG one. It seems that over time the .35 now looks small. I do not mind going lower in color. (I do want to keep my current one so I would not want to upgrade now.) The M buttery ring that was reviewed many months ago from a PS'er is still in my mind. Price range is $1000-12000 for the diamond. Any suggestions?

I was looking at this one: https://www.briangavindiamonds.com/...0.520-j-vs1-round-diamond-ags-bl-104097387021
But, would prefer to go as big as possible and lower in color. I do not mind having fluor in the diamond.

Are you after a super ideal?

Yes, if possible.

Yours is the best I could find. Or this one (but I still think yours is better) https://www.briangavindiamonds.com/...ls/0.521-k-vs2-round-diamond-ags-104097387022

They may be running low on inventory right now due to the holidays. I would call them and WF and ask them what's coming down the pipeline.
It may lead you to a slightly larger stone.

I emailed both vendors. Jamie at BG suggested the above. I really don’t mind waiting dor something lower in color is I could go a smidge bigger. I will keep searching...

@Wink at HighPerformanceDiamonds has posted lower color CBI diamonds (and owns one himself). They have a Q color right now, but larger than you have. You might chat with them to see what is coming in the pipeline. GoodOldGold also presently has a Q Ascendancy right now (also bigger than you need).

OP, I just want to say that I much prefer the 0.52 J VS1 blue over the K color diamond for approximately the same price. I would pick that one if I were you.

I think I would also like blue in the diamond esp since I am going with a lower color. I just posted a question asking about the process with Wink. I was not able to find a website to see his settings and it seems that I would source the diamond from him and then get it set w another jeweler? If that is correct, would I offend other jewelers if I did not originally purchase the diamond from them?

We went live with our new site back in July I believe, and we are working on the mountings module. You are welcome to purchase just the diamond from us if you like, and we also are VERY proud of our Workshop and would be honored to also make you a mounting.
