[jewels2]

Hello!

I really liked working with James Allen and am now looking for a pair of diamond studs. I found this diamond and would like opinions and also can you please help with a matching stone? Thanks!!!

James Allen has a matching pairs search engine: http://www.jamesallen.com/diamonds/matching-pairs/

The specific 0.83 I VS2 you found doesn't show up among the pairs displayed. You can always ask JA directly to help you help you identify a match. They certainly would want to.

If want to look for them separately, you will want to find a match that has the same cut grade, a similar table %, similar diameter, same color (or one grade off), and same clarity (or one grade off).

The BGD stones most likely look more similar to each other, although I would go for higher color and lower clarity for roughly the same price.

^^^ Thanks! I saw those also ... will there be any noticable differnce between these and the slightly larger ones from BG or JA?

In terms of size, I doubt it. I need at least 0.3 mm difference in diameter in round stones to see a memorable size difference in person.

There is a tiny size difference, but the big plus to me for going with the .77 BG stones is that they are H color and also BG has a great trade-in policy in case you ever do want to go larger.
