Hello everybody,

I am new to this game and would like to start off by thanking everyone on this forum for providing everyone with such a wealth of information. I just recently began the process off looking for rings, first in stores then researching online to find out why some diamonds ''sparkle'' and others don''t. That''s when I stumbled onto this site and its forum. I think I know what I''m looking for in a diamond now, at least the general characteristics.

I am looking for a diamond that fluoresces blue in the sunlight, I''ve read that not all diamonds with fluorescence even very strong fluorescence will do this though. Another concern of mine is in buying an overblue diamond though this shouldn''t be too big of a problem since I can always just return it, though that would mean eating the shipping charge. Yet another concern of mine is with the GIA/JKD case, I''m am looking for a D color diamond and eye clean (VS1 or higher) diamond, should I be concerned with exaggerated grading? Sorry all, this is my first diamond purchase and I just want everything to be perfect!

Anyways, the purpose of my post was to ask anyone who has a diamond that fluoresces in the sunlight if they can post their particular diamond''s stats (color, clarity, cut, polish, symmetry, fluorescence rating, etc. anything!) and maybe a picture if possible. Thanks in advance!

To answer your main points, I would stick with GIA and AGSL graded stones if you are concerned about the reliability of the grading. They are considered to be the most reputable of the grading labs.

If you are specifically seeking fluorescent diamonds, I would visit Whiteflash.com, GoodOldGold.com & JamesAllen.com and send an email to each explaining exactly what you''re looking for.

You may find something which suits you by searching their inventory, but if not they will be happy to look to find a diamond to suit your needs.

Fluorescence is lovely in a diamond, and these vendors will check the stones for you to ensure it''s not having any negative effects on the appearance of the diamond.

If you do a search using the box above on ''fluorescence'' you''ll find lots of posts of pictures & stats of stones like this owned by PSers.
