Hi, I was wondering if you guys could help me out with a dilemma I'm running into?
I'm looking for a round diamond of excellent cut and parameters (including no fluorescence)
My budget for the setting and stone is $5000 so with the platinum setting I have in mind I believe that leaves around $3300?
I believe a 0.8 carat looked best on my 4.5 size finger and am interested in the best quality possible but I'm wondering if that's possible when I actually preferred the colorless to the near colorless diamonds and I feel like for my own peace of mind I am leaning towards VS as opposed to S. (They seem to sparkle more) and I've already convinced myself down from a 1 carat largely due to budget
The problem is I think the stones I'm drawn to are closer to $4200!
Is there a way around this? Or is it worth it to fork up the extra for stone I really like? It looks at that rate the total spent would be close to $6000..
Thanks so much!
