Hmm. Okay.
I'll post three options.
First option:
http://www.jewelsbygrace.com/loose-diamonds/1-ct-to-2-00/1-72ct-old-european-cut-diamond-ags-k-vs2.html#.VDCuoBbLMq8
I'd try to negotiate a bit on the price of it so that I could afford this setting in 14 X1 metal: http://www.stuller.com/products/122118/9143292/?groupId=119127&fromProductDetails=True (setting is about 400 bucks or less).

Can be any shape, color, clarity, etc. and let's not count out any "pre-loved" stones!
GO!!!

Something like these (probably could find better ones, but these were easily searched!):

These are excellent places to find an exceptional, possibly even signed piece, for less than typical retail, if you know what you're buying and buy well.
RandG|1412514039|3762411 said:Mrs.-Blop: Thank you! These are modern rounds, H VS1, 2.50 center, and 1.25 on each side. I searched a long time and found a 2:1 ratio worked best for me. Some people like 3:1. I would try both.
