Need Guidance for 3 ct Round Brilliant

[njblinger]

Hi all, I'm ready to dip into the LGD world but don't want to spend too much as a start. Is it possible to find a 3-3.5 carat round brilliant for under $5k? Not too color sensitive, can go up to H or I. Most interested in ideal cut and lots of sparkle. TIA!

Hi, I'm looking to get it as a travel ring and I have a couple of settings that would fit since I change my settings every couple of years

Hello Kim
I am new here and found this thread - so instead of creating a new one....
I too am looking for an Ideal H&A 3.0-3.35 carat LGD for a ring with a narrow triple pave setting (2.4-2.7mm). My parameters are DEF, VVS2 or better
I have found a few but I would very much like some 2nd.3rd,4th opinions before I make my final decision and purchase. I have looked at Ritani and Frank Darling as well as James allen and adiamor - and I am quite overwhelmed. I found the same stone on Ritani and Adiamor - same cert ID but a price variance of almost $3k - with Ritani being the lower of the two.
I am trying to stay around $6k or less
Here are the links to a few I have considered so far

The first one has potential, but I'd want to see an ASET image to confirm there's no leakage. The second one has blue nuance and is not as well cut.

Have a look at this one as well, a very clean VS1 according to the plot and video.
