Last friday I came across a sound like a really good deal diamond from an Australian diamond broker.
www.diamondexchage.com.au
I got 2 options :
Option 1 - New ring custom made : 18k White Gold 1/2 Bezel Set with side stones (6 x 0.05ct F SI1). Price AUD 4,450 / USD 3,050
It will have a center diamond that has the following character:
Carat 0.70
Colour F
Clarity VS1
Total Depth 62.10
Pavilion Depth 43.00
Table 61.00
Dimensions 5.57*5.61*3.47
Crown Angle 33.00
Pavilion Angle 40.80
Girdle 4.46
Culet none
Fluorescence None
Lustre
Polish G
Symmetry G
Cut VG
Report GIA
I went to their office and view a similar like diamond in color, clarity, and cut. However, the polish and symmetry were different.. The one i viewed has VG/VG polished and symmetry.
The center diamond itself only AUD 3,000 / USD 2,050. The setting cost an extra AUD 1,500
Question is, will it be much different from the one i see?
Option 2 - Already made ring : Six claw white gold coronet, yellow gold band. Price : AUD 5,100 / USD3,550
The center diamond as follow:
Carat 0.82
Colour G
Clarity VS2
Total Depth 61.80
Pavilion Depth 43.50
Table 57.00
Dimensions 6.03*6.00*3.72
Crown Angle 33.50
Pavilion Angle 41.00
Girdle med - s th
Culet n
Fluorescence None
Lustre
Polish VG
Symmetry EX
Cut EX
Report GIA
The diamond color & clarity are of lower grade but it has VG/EX Polish/Symmetry but of course I cannot choose the setting
Thank you before hand for any professional advice I could get
p.s. This engagement ring gonna be my first diamond ring so big decision for me
