Hi everyone, I'm looking to make a solitaire pendant n the .45-.50 range. I've found these stones on bluenile but am not sure what is getting me the best bang for my buck.. Can you please please please help me choose? Basically what I want is for the stone to be very white in all lights (sometimes I notice my ering is has a hint of yellow and looks cloudy n certain lights, is this normal?), excellent cut, eye clean...thanks so much!

what color is your ering? also, color is most noticeable from a side view (which you would see when wearing a ring, but not so much a pendant)
 
I would recommend looking at vendors who provide pictures and idealscope images such as James Allen, Good Old Gold, and WhiteFlash. What is your budget for the stone and what kind of setting do you want?

How often do you clean your e-ring? That is the only reason I can think of that it would look cloudy in some lighting and not others. What is the clarity? And the surroundings and certain lighting can make a stone look tinted. You need to look at the stone in natural daylight (not in the direct sun) and see if it shows color there.
