Is it better to go for quality or for size?
I am setting it in a micro pave halo so it will appear larger then it is.
Anyone have any experiences buying anything online? Probably much better to see it in person, no? Can anyone recommend a good diamond wholesaler in NYC.
Here are the choices.
I Have not seen this one yet.
Cut - Cushion Modified Brilliant
carat 3.00
Color H
Clarity SI1
[Eye Clean]
Polish Excellent
Symmetry Very Good
Fluorescence none
Measurements 8.83 X 8.50 x 5.23
Culet - none
Girdle medium - very thick (faceted)
57% table
61.5% depth
This I have seen and it is magnificent and the nicest one I have seen. However I think I may want to go larger?
