Hello All,
I am looking to buy a pair of diamond stud earrings for my soon to be Fiance. I was wondering if anyone had any additional beginners advice (I've done some research online), I've never purchased this kind of jewelry before so please hit me with it all. I am just getting out of the military and this is my 1st big significant gift to her. I am looking to start our jewelry life together and hope to upgrade as time and anniversaries pass. Below is what I'm looking for, and I have a budget of abt 1000.00 dollars (I can go a little higher but would like to stick there). Let me know any other particulars I should be addressing when shopping (% of the angles of the cuts, this arrow and hearts cut?,...ect). Any recommendations on where to go online or physical store would be great too! I am also looking for a unique setting, some online settings were kind of plain jane and boring, I am leaning more for an antique or older more detailed look in the setting. I hope everyone can understand this lady has stuck by me through some hard times (military separation) and deserves a really thoughtful and love filled gift! Thank you!!!
14-18k or white gold or platnium, 4 prong basket, screw back
Shape Round
Carat 0.50 - 1.0 (TW) for the pair
Color G - J
Cut Excellent, Ideal, Very Good
Clarity VS1-SI3
GIA Cert preferred
