Opinions on 2ct diamond ring, any thoughts?

[weemie]

Hi all, I have been stalking this ring for ages, and decided it was time to get some opinions! Weighed out of setting at 2.00 carats, it’s not certified (often the way I buy things so that isn’t always a worry for me) and is rated as SI1 and G by the jeweller. What do you guys think?

Love it

Love it

Thank you! It’s hard when you’re not able to go see it in person, and overseas makes it hard to return!

I will happily accept it, thank you.
* I happen to love a Belcher, I have one with a spinel. They are tanks that you really can wear without worry!

I love this design. The prongs have been tipped and may be more “blobby” than a finer taper to the tip. There appears to be a sizable feather and a couple noticeable flea bites on the girdle. So maybe not SI1. Yet, if priced accordingly, some oddities can be overlooked. Overall, it’s a beautiful design and the stone looks pretty. Are there any pics of profile view (crown/etc)?

Is that supposed to be the same stone?

Apologies, my explanation didn’t get added with the pictures! I’m so sorry! No the gypsy set one is the one I’ll be letting go if I decide to go for the bigger 2ct, it’s 1.5cts and transitional! I had said @ringo865 thank you so much for that, it was exactly what I needed to hear! The one I would be letting go to buy the one I asked about is vvvs1 n/m transitional but faces up very white and I'm not sure I could cope with less than SI1! Also I hadn’t seen the nibbles or the feather. The price is very good for a 2ct but now I'm not sure it’s worth letting go of my gypsy for!

Perhaps it is the way the prongs are aligned, but the culet looks off-center to me. Is the stone an old mine cut? Not mind clean for me.

To me it looks much smaller than a 2ct...

 

[weemie]

Thanks everyone, I think I’ll be sticking to my own for now! I needed that clarity and some tough love!

I actually but the bullet on another smaller purchase without checking with the pros, very naughty of me but it’s so my style! Should be here in a couple of weeks! It’s a 1960’s retro heavy 1.75 ct ring (I had thought 1.5 but it’s more) I can’t wait, what do you guys think? Apologies some are a bit blurry, I took pictures from a video!

Dont feel like you always have to check in with the "pros"...if a ring speaks to you and the price is reasonable for what it is then
go for it! (On the other hand, if it's a large purchase and you don't feel comfortable without others' opinions, that's Ok too).
