Re: Expert HELP PLEASE choosing RB 1ct Scope Images Attached

Any other comments, please? I have to make a decision today.
 
yup, first and third are better than 2. First stone is a 60/60 make which is nice because it may be brighter (good for an I color but may have less fire though) balance and nice spread for carat weight and priced well. The third is more Tolk cut and will have a balance of brilliance and fire (if lighting conditions are favorable for fire) and is an H with the same spread as the first. You can pick by the style cut assuming both are eye clean. If there's a significant price difference, I'd go with the cheaper one as I think you'd be very happy with either choice. Does the vendor have any comments on the stones? Good luck with your selection! How do you plan to set it?
 
1st and 3rd. and between those two it's up to ur personal preference. the arrows on the 3rd one are closer to the center of the stone (a.k.a. longer) and the 1st one has a bigger "blank" space in the middle and the arrows start further away from the center of the stone.
 
Thanks for your response. I am still a little undecided. The 1 and 3 image actually go with the 1st and 2nd stats (I listed them in the wrong order). The gem inspection said that the H color, 2nd image had slightly more brilliance than the other two, but that is not really what the ideal scope images are saying - it also has an inclusion that will be visible (maybe half of it can be covered with a prong) and it is the most expensive. The 1.15 I shows slightly more warmth than the 1.09 I, but both face up white, there is a $900 difference between the two. I currently have a .90 H VS2 that is eye clean and lots of sparkle, but it is smaller than I really want for my center stone of a 3-stone ring. The measurements of the .90 is 6.17x6.22x3.84 I would love to have a H VS clarity in a 1.20 size, but my budget will not allow it :|

I am going to make a final decision today. I have seen some of the I colored stones of the members in the show me your bling posts and I cannot see any color.
