Hi all,
This is my first time ever posting anything, however, I've found myself struggling to make a decision. I've researched enough and educated myself enough to at least know the fundamentals about diamonds. My significant other has made it clear that she really likes the idea of a laboratory grown diamond, and she really isn't all that picky...just excited to be married--finally
I have made the decision to go with Brilliant Earth for a laboratory grown diamond and have narrowed it down. My big question is, why does this first diamond...
1. https://www.brilliantearth.com/rings/cyorings/view_diamond/4098857/?sid=
...look different from these other two diamonds.
2. https://www.brilliantearth.com/rings/cyorings/view_diamond/4418075/?sid=
3. https://www.brilliantearth.com/rings/cyorings/view_diamond/5116784/?sid=
After getting some opinions, most of my family liked the first one above, but there's something that makes it look different from the other two and I can't definitively tell what it is other than possibly the "lighting" or "angle"? I recognize that there are differences in the visible inclusions, but the difference I need help with is what makes it look whiter when you look at it straight on?
Any help and opinions on which of the diamonds is better and why would be great! I am planning on either getting #1 or #2, and my significant other would be happy with either. She had originally picked out something much worse, but didn't realize I wanted her to have something nicer; something I would be proud of for her.
Thank you!
