Need advice on which diamond to choose

tomdchi · Feb 7, 2014

I am looking for a Tiffany Legacy replica and found one at Excel diamonds that looks really good. I am trying to figure out the best center stone for it. Can someone help me with that?
Here is a link to what they have for 1 carat cushion cuts:

Thanks!

What is your budget?

Budget for stone.
Budget for setting.

Hi Gypsy,

I am looking to spend 6K total.

The excel diamonds setting would run $2,288.60 but if I order before Friday it would only be 1,830.88.

So that would leave 4K max for stone.

Would a a rectangular or square L/W shape be better for this setting?
