Hey first time posting here although I have been stalking this site for a while. So….was looking at a diamond from WF and waited too long and now it is gone. There is a second diamond which fits my parameters the only thing that bugs me is the crystal seen in the pic. Its eye clean so it shouldn't be seen with regular 20/20 vision right? I anticipate proposing in August wanted to see what you guys think? Should I bite or wait?

That looks extremely clean to me, and the only advantage to waiting is if you prefer to pay more!!! That is a beautiful stone! Hope you have it on hold! Do you have to wait until August to propose?

What setting are you thinking about?
 
Was debating on Etoile du coeur setting





versus 'Sierra' setting





She likes simple 4 prong.

May I suggest one more? I think design-wise, the Legato Sleekline is a finer setting.

Unfortunately they don't have any pics with a 2 ct stone, but that is a beautiful size in that setting. I think the Etoile setting may be set too low causing the wedding band to hit the prongs. I like the Sierra better of those two.

Vatche Caroline is beautiful, too:

Awesome thanks!!
 
Lovely stone. I second Diamond Seekers setting recommendations. They are the two nicest four prongs at WF I feel.
 
Thanks guys. Got the diamond with the legato setting…great suggestion.

Here are some pics..excuse my hairy finger ha ha
