Hello ladies,
My boyfriend and I have recently begun searching for an engagement stone and could use some help in finding "the" one
I've been looking online for months now, but haven't yet found her.
Though there's no budget per se, I would ideally like to find a stone whose specs are worth spending money on (i.e. a stone of good value). This is one of the reasons the search hasn't yet come to fruition. I am also a little OCD and need to know that all options have been explored and compared then narrowed down to the best possible choice.
Ideal specifications:
- Cut: Round brilliant, Ideal hearts & arrows
- Carat: 3.2-4.0
- Colour: F-G
- Clarity: VS1-SI1 (ideally VS2, since I worry SI1 might not be eyeclean, while VS1 would inflate the cost unnecessarily)
Currently, there are 2 Whiteflash ACA's that fit close within these parameters, but each with its limitations...
Stone 1: 3.05 carats, F, VS2, $70K (limitation: wish it was a little bigger)

Stone 2: 3.987 carats, G, VS1, $118K (limitation: wish it was a VS2 as this would decrease cost to a more palatable one)

Thank you all soooooooooo much!!
Any suggestions and insight would be so deeply appreciated.
Thanks again,
Stephanie
