Hello all this is my first post on PS. I have probably spent 50+ hours researching various facets of diamond purchasing and am looking for some adivce for those who have purchased a loose diamond in australia (SYD) or where online.
Budget is 3-3.5k for the stone.
Carat: a 0.9-1ct
Colour:I or better
Clarity: Si1 or better or "Eye Clean"
Depth/Table; less than 75%
Girdle: Medium to thick
Stone will be set in a yellow gold classic solitare princess setting.
Obviously wanting as good a cut as possible but as im not getting a top-dollar princess cut will be hard to find diamonds in my budget with ASET images etc.
Have been looking at James Allen, Jogia diamonds, sydneydiamondcompany etc.
Would prefer find a wholesaler in Sydney so i can view the diamond personally. Otherwise after advice on who to purchase through online.
Regards
Patrick
