Have you looked at Jewels by Grace? I saw you said you liked OEC and warmer...she has some to die for rings and loose stones.

Just started to browse her site... oh my!! <3

@rockysalamander @Matthews1127 I think I found one that I love! It's a J but VVS2, Ideal and True Hearts, 1.24ct. It has fluorescence but I think that will only help it. Going to look at J's in person on Saturday. I currently have it on hold but also hesitant to link it... cause I THINK I want it. We'll see after I view some J's in person! I'm a little worried about the setting which is white gold and has F-G pave diamonds.. thoughts? It's a small 2.2mm band and the diamonds go 3/4 around. I think I'm okay with a little contrast but I don't want too much... another option would be changing the setting too...

Don't hesitate until you've looked at J's to see how you feel about them. As you mentioned, the fluorescence will help it face up White against higher color diamonds. AGS000, and a VVS2!!! I don't blame you for wanting to investigate further with color!!
Best of luck!! Hope you'll share pix of the diamond, if you decide to purchase!!!

I agree. It will come down to color and your thoughts on it. Fingers crossed for you.

When looking at diamonds, take them out into natural and indirect light. Stores will often let you do so. If not, at least go over to a window. The key is to get away from the special bedazeller lights -- usually placed over the cases and viewing areas If you have to, use a piece of paper to block the light from above.
