Hi Guys,
My wife has lost her engagement ring a couple of weeks ago but luckily I had it fully insured and the insurance company is going to pay to have it replaced.
My jewelry designer is shopping around for new loose stones to have another ring made. She came across a diamond that is slighlty bigger but spec wise seems to be lower but still highly recommending as a "fair" trade off and make a good replacement.
The ring she is proposing is 2.26ct G/VS1, $27,515. The original ring I had was 2.15 carat H / IF clarity $25,000. (Both excellent cut) Can some one please give me there analysis on it being a fair replacement? It doesn't seem right. Based on my research, having a IF clarity ring should be exponentially more expensive..wondering why the new diamond is priced higher? It only seems to be slightly bigger and only 1 color grade up? Do you guys think this is a "fair" replacement?
Thanks!
