Greetings, everyone.
I am struggling with what diamond to purchase for my girlfriend's e-ring. I have been looking at Whiteflash almost exclusively, as I have heard that there is no livelier stone on the market than their ACA. Ideally, I am looking for something just shy of 1 ct. I am not opposed to going above the 1 ct mark, but I cringe a bit at the huge premium for such a small return. Additionally, though my gf has always dreamed of having a 1 ct e-ring, after seeing them on her hand, she says that she wouldn't want to go any larger (how wonderful for me!). Unfortunately, Whiteflash does not have any slightly less than 1 ct ACA diamonds unless I drop all the way down to the 0.8 range, which I am extremely hesitant to do.
I did find the following Expert Selection stone that comes pretty close to meeting my expectations, but to me, being ES just screams "I was almost perfect, but I blew it." It's a mind clean issue.
So I thought I would come on here and get some opinions on the diamond. I have a lot of respect for the people here, as I have learned a lot from reading all of the posts, and everyone is very helpful.
So here is the diamond. I would love to get some input.
Thanks!
