Last Minute Mother's Day help needed with diamond stud selection!

[I like ice]

My son in law has asked for help finding a great gift for my daughters first Mothers Day. He would like to find some round brilliant diamond studs with a tcw of at least 1.3 in a white gold setting. Budget out the door of $4,500. Cut is much more of a priority than color. Anyone see any great deals out there?

What color is he able to go down to? Whiteflash has these ACAs (top of the line cut)

Actually they have several pair around 1.2ish in his price range. I would call Whiteflash, tell them what you are looking for and let them picking
out 2 that match really nice.

Here are the settings they have for studs

Where is he located? I feel like he could easily do SI1 or SI2 clarity and I or J color with excellent or ideal cut and get at least 1.5 ctw and have gorgeous earrings within budget. There are these from Blue Nile but they take 7 business days to ship. If he is near NYC - maybe IDJ can do it within the timeframe...

Why 7 days to ship? I ordered my BN studs one afternoon and they were here the next morning. (Just meaning are you sure it takes 7 days?)

That's what it said on the website when I added the earrings to the cart. Maybe because it is a busy time??? OP should definitely call and see if they can rush them as it might be the best option if they are not located near any PS vendors...

Thanks for the help and all of the options you found! Timeframe seemed to be the big constraint. I didn't find anything ready to ship, so finding someone with stones in house and set in time might have been a challenge. We are in Michigan so not a hotbed of PS jewelers nearby LOL. I did actually find a pair of pre-loved earrings which I think she will be thrilled with!
