Diamond Advice

Hey everyone,

Hoping to close out a purchase this week and can use everyones help. I have three diamonds I am considering with each having different flaws.

I put a hold on this stone before I noticed the other two. It's priced at 9000 and seems to have good results on their tests except for symmetry.

An H&A diamond that doesn't do as well in the fire trace and scores a J color.

Has a great price and very good test results but is an SI2. The inclusions appear white and I was told white inclusions are typically eye clean. Do you know this to be true?

I am looking to set the diamond in this setting or one similar.

What do you think? My only concern with the setting is that the halo may be so large that it may take away from the center stone.

The link to the setting isn't working.

I'd wait until there are people there (maybe tomorrow? Don't know with this storm...). They'll be able to pull all the stones, assess them for eye cleanliness, and give you an idea of which one performs the best - they may even make you a video!

I like the G SI2; most of the inclusions are on the edge of the table, so they will probably get "lost" in the facets junctions at the table's edge; the small ones under the table... maybe. Let someone there look at it for you.

Thank you, I will try that. And I agree, I think its my favorite also, but concerned with the inclusions.

Here is the correct link to the setting.

Beautiful setting! I'm sure Marie will be able to make sure the stone size fits the setting.

Great! Thank you. Much more reassuring to have opinions other then my own.
