Hello everyone,
I'm a new member on price scope, but have spent quite some time on the site trying to understand diamonds and trying to find exactly I'm looking for. I know 10X more now about diamonds than I did a month ago, but I am still having trouble when it comes to finding the best diamond to purchase. Many of you know diamonds better than I ever will, and in all honesty I am asking for your help to find a diamond that fits my criteria.
I am 24 and don't have tons to spend on a ring. My budget is around 7k for everything. The setting is going to be around $700 so that leaves me about $6300 for the stone. Every time I try to narrow it down and determine exactly which stone I think I want, I get overwhelmed, not to mention there are tons of stones on many of these sites that meet my criteria. Well, the time has come and now I need to buy one. My girlfriend will really appreciate the largest diamond I can get, but quality is still very important.
From what I have been able to gather, I would like the ring to meet or surpass the following:
Round brilliant cut
.9 carat (preferably over 1 carat)
H color
vs2
very good cut
Do you have any recommendation on specific diamonds that meet these criteria?
I regularly see people post a link to a specific diamond and ask for peoples thoughts. More times than not, others recommend another diamond and it is generally agreed to be a better, more brilliant diamond. That is what I'm looking for!
Thank you in advance!
