Need Help Finding an ER for my Mom from my Stepdad

[gracieloufreebush]

The earring was a great idea but I want to go with something certed and at least excellent cut. Thanks so much for the idea though!

Niel thanks I reaaaally like that one! He hasn't set an actual budget but I think 1600 would be the max. If I use this diamond with their cheapest setting the total comes to $1768 which is too much. But I really like the diamond and think it'd be perfect. hmmmmm...

What do we think about this one? http://www.jamesallen.com/#!/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.50-carat-i-color-si1-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-186148

I asked if it was eye clean and the customer service person said that they do not have it in house. But she said "99% sure it is eye clean" due to its size. I would put it with this setting most likely (my mom hates knife edge) http://www.jamesallen.com/#!/engagement-rings/solitaire/14k-white-gold-2mm-comfort-fit-solitaire-engagement-ring-six-prong-item-7995.. But idk how good JA settings are...

Whiteflash sells ritani. The cheapest ritani setting is under, 250 I would ask if they could set it in that.

if not i would buy the diamong from WF and i would have it set locally. You could find a place that sells stuller and have one set, or even the cheapest ritani would put him under 1600 i imagine (dont know NY tax)

Or if you are close to NY you could ask IDJ to set it, i dont know if they have a showroom but they have lots of cheap solitaires. they are 325 on there site but they say for best prices to call, so i bet they would come down

BAH! just realized that ritani is knife edge
