Hi all! I’m new to LGD and need help finding an eye clean RB and would prefer H or whiter. Looking for at least 10mm (but bigger is even better ) for max $5k

After being able to pretty much just pick anything from CBI, WF, BGD and VC, I’ve found this task hard. This one doesn’t have to be an AGS0 or Gcal 8x (I’ve noticed there’s a big markup on those) I’ve searched until I’m cross eyed using the preferred parameters but see a lot of stones with a grainy look and I’m trying to avoid that.

My current most worn is a 2.25ct CBI in a J and I’m fine with that color so not too color sensitive.

Thanks!

How about this?


Not sure why I didn’t get a notification for this reply but I’ve added it to my short list. I’ve also found these two that I have on my list (under budget on other sites) and was wondering what you thought @Kim N @DejaWiz

Like that this has a GIA report https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...eferral&utm_campaign=labdiamonds-ps&?a_aid=ps

Would HPHT be a safer choice? https://www.adiamor.com/Lab-Diamond...lent-Cut-Round-Diamond/D52187129?rfr=shopping

For the price, that HPHT with no blue nuance looks amazing!

No issues with the 34.2/40.9 combo?

Nope...in fact, the slightly shallower crown angle pairs better with the slightly steeper pavilion angle.

The 3.66 would be my choice as well!

I feel that this PA/CA/TW combo is far to risky, and there is some clear indication of leakage under the table:

I agree, I wouldn't buy this diamond.

I’m reminded why pricescope sucks.

Are you not supposed to mention other websites other than Jamesallen.com? Seriously, if that’s the case, I didn’t know it.
