This board has been a great help and I''m almost there!
I''ve been looking for a princess-cut diamond for an engagement ring. I want the best cut possible for a diamond just over 1 carat and spending no more than $6,500. Here are the stones I''m choosing between (all the stones are GIA certified):
#1: 1.07 carat, F color, VS2, depth: 68.6%, table: 71%, measurements: 5.76x5.66mm, ratio 1.01, Very Good, Very Good, None
Price: $5091
#2: 1.07 carat, E color, VS2, depth: 69.7%, table: 71%, measurements: 5.78x5.67x3.95, ratio 1.01, Good, Good, None
Price: $5425
#3: 1.20 carat, E color, VS2, depth: 69.4%, table: 63%, measurements: 5.94x5.92x4.11mm, ratio 1.00, Good, Good, None
Price: $6460
#4: 1.31 carat, G color, VS2, depth: 71.7%, table: 69%, measurements: 6.01x5.97x4.28, ratio 1.00, Excellent, Good, None
Price: $6319
All diamonds are GIA certified, and I get to examine the diamond and even take it to an appraiser before I purchase it.
Can anyone tell me which stone (on paper anyway) sounds like the best diamond for the money? Which one should I examine?
Please help!
