Hello Everyone,
I have lurked here and tried to learn from this wonderful site. I have read up a good bit on EC diamonds. It is a very tough choice when it comes to buying a diamond and I am going crazy. I have found two that I am interested in and hope you guys can give me a bit of help and some courage.
Diamond 1:
Stone shape: Emerald
Carat Weight: 2.20 carats
Color: F
Clarity: VVS1
Certificate type: GIA
Depth 65.1
Table 64.0
Crown 12%
Fluorescence: None
Girdle: Medium
Cutlet: None
Symmetry: Very Good
Polish: Excellent
Measurements: 9.08 x 6.42 x 4.18 millimeters
Length-to-width ratio: 1.41
Diamond 2:
Carat Weight: 2.21
Cut: Emerald
Color: F
Clarity: VVS2
Report: GIA
Measurements: 8.40 x 6.31 x 4.41 millimeters
Length-to-width ratio: 1.33
Depth: 69.9
Table: 69
Girdle: Thick
Culet: None
Polish: Very Good
Symmetry: Good
Fluorescence: None
My questions are these:
1) From the info I have given, what price range should the diamonds be in?
2) Is it a good idea to go with a lower Color or Clarity in order to get a biger stone or should I get the best I can afford when dealing with EC diamonds?
Thanks,
Happy Holidays
