Color differance

[ChrisT]

I bought my fiance a .86 round F VS2 engagement ring... I still need to buy a wedding band for her. Any idea''s? She wants something simple and classic. I am looking at a 1/3 carat (5 stone) diamond band... if it is H color - will there be any differance seen? Help- I am new on Pricescope.

While most people normally try to stay with an adjacent color grade (in the case of an F, adjacent would be E or G), I think the stones in a 1/3 ct. 5-stone band are small enough that there shoudn't be a discernable difference.

Yes, you shoudl be just fine with H color stones.

The 5 stone, 1/3 carat diamond band I am looking at is from Blue Nile... does anyone know much about them? Has anyone seen there diamond bands in person or know how there diamond band's prices compare to others? The one thing that worries me is that the "average color is an H, average clarity is a SI 1"... does that mean I could buy a band that ends up being an I color??? Again, I am new to all of this... your comments are greatly appreciated!
