JA RB/Setting Advice

[morrison.jt]

This has been a long process, but I am finally starting to get it nailed down..I think...the setting we have picked is the Danhov ME29 through James Allen. This changed my direction as far as stone because I figured I might be able to lower my standards on color slightly and get a larger stone..this may have been misguided...I''m considering the RB linked below..cut appears solid, the clarity is solid as well. I am concerned that maybe I went a little to far dropping down to I color, but it allowed for a much larger stone. This stone does have "medium" fluorescence which I was lead to believe might help this thing face up a little better in the white gold setting with it being an I. Any advice or other suggestions/opinions would be greatly appreciated. The halo setting was something I hadn''t accounted for originally and I''m not sure how that will affect diamond choice. Anyone who has, or has seen this setting have any opinions. Thanks for all you guys help.

That appears to be a nice diamond you have chosen, also the fluorescence may be a bonus. What I would do, is to ask your rep''s opinion at JA whether the diamond you have chosen is a good fit for the setting, chances are it will be, but it may give you some reassurance to ask a professional who has seen both the diamond and the setting.

Ditto what she said. Beautiful setting by the way
