Any opinions on this diamond?

[Honeybasil]

I have a jeweler helping me create a ring, and this was their initial suggestion for the diamond. so I’m hoping for some insight! Thanks!

Just an fyi, your diamond can easily be found, as you missed something.

This is similar to the one you posted except a bit more money, recommended to me by @Kim N. I needed a larger one so didn't grab it:

I don't personally like 60/60 stones so I would pass. Have you seen it in person?

Thanks, PinkAndBlueBling, this is definitely what I'd recommend to Honeybasil.

Honeybasil, the diamond you posted isn't very well cut. It shows signs of an unevenly cut pavilion, which can result in leakage under the table. And like lovedogs, i prefer diamonds with more balanced performance. 60/60 style diamonds tend to favor brightness over fire.

Thank you so much!! And thanks for catching that I didn’t mark out all the identifiers on the report, but I guess I won’t worry about it since it doesn’t seem like a great diamond. I’m actually trying to make a 3 stone ring, so I’d love help finding three stones. I like the one you suggested - I’m also looking for side stones about half the weight of the center stone. And is there a vendor you recommend where I could get the stones set into a ring? This is my first dabble in lab diamonds…

@Honeybasil It's the code thingy in the bottom corner. I didn't want to point it out in case you found a great stone.
Anyhow, since we have a lurker problem, place that one on hold in case you find the two side to go with it.

Thanks! If I just order loose stones, any recommendations on where to get a setting? Not sure if vendors want to set outside LGD…

Everyone here loves LA based David Klass. He’ll def set outside stones. I think some ppl use Sako. Maybe CvB, too?

I'll put in another recommendation for David Klass for the setting.

How about these two for side stones? Definitely put the stones on hold while you're considering them, as they might get bought out from under you. The second diamond is pretty tilted in the video, but I think it's still a good one.
