hearts for #2?


if hearts are good - flip a coin!

Both are lookers. I would ask Brian to pull them out and tell you the pluses and minues of each one -- maybe one is a more colorless diamond than the other, or was graded harshly for clarity, or sparkles really well. I would trust his opinion.

I spoke to Brian and went with his opinion. We bought the Diamond 1.
G SI1 eyeclean
1.211ct.
I hope we made the right choice.
They made the experience so easy, especially for myself buying from Australia.
What do you guys think?
