Need help finding the right diamond?

[The6ixontherun]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for help to find the right diamond for my girlfriend engagement ring!

I'm looking for a diamond in the $2600 range not much more.

I want the best bang for my buck, round brilliant diamond. The diamond will be going into a halo, so it doesn't have to be to big.

Quality or quantity I heard is best!

Do you have the halo already? What's the total budget for both? What color is the halo? What size is her finger? What ct rings has she been looking at it sending you

I do not have the halo already, regular halo, size 8.5. I'm looking at .70-.75. Total budget is 3500-4000

I like the ACA better posted above, but here are a few additional options to look at. Everyone makes a basic halo. If you only have diamonds on the halo and a plain band it will be less and much easier to re-size in the future.

Open to preloved and vintage cuts?

Be certain, as you are shopping, that the halo dimensions are matched with the diamond and also be mindful of the color of the diamonds in the melee - make sure they are similar to the color of the center stone.
