Hi
Here I am agonising over colour and clarity, looking at inclusion maps, eye clean definations, cut (NB: there is no compromise on cut for me!) and the search continues for that perfect stone for my ring.
and what size I can get with the possible combinations and budget allocated.
But in the end, with all my angst and analysis, once I have that lovely sparkly ring on my finger, apart from the obvious appearance, who else will really care if it is a shade of colour higher or lower, clarity a bit more or less, assuming it is eye clean.
So, has anyone IRL asked you any questions beyond size (which seems to be what most non-diamond obsesed people focus on)? Have they asked what colour, clarity is it, or even the cut?????????
In a way, it is funny, I am enjoying the process and I am agonizing over the various combinations that are possible in the 4 C''s but in reality apart from me no-one is ever gone to loupe it or stare at it for hours
.... sighhh.... the process continues
Anyway, it is fun obsession, but I need to get some perspective sometimes.
