Hello!
I''ve been around for a couple of months now researching and have decided it might be time to move on a diamond (thanks for the heads up on the upward moving price trend Karl K). I''m being quite picky in looking for a G SI1 that is 100% eye clean from the top and one I can possibly even cover any inclusions visible from the side with a prong. I have attached the GIA report of a diamond I have on hold that I am set to purchase tomorrow for $13,150. It does face up fairly large for a diamond of 1.78ct at 7.80 x 7.82, which is also important to me. I''ve been considering going with a 2ct diamond but my custom setting and wedding band will be $7,000 so I am already beyond the limits of my budget and with the price increases coming I just don''t feel like waiting any longer. This is why its important to me that the smaller diamond face up somewhat large for its size.
How does this diamond look to you? It is in house and I was told it was a very pretty diamond that faces up totally white and is closer to the VS2 classification in clarity.
If any of you wanted to run a search for diamonds that are larger I would appreciate this a LOT. My budget is realistically about $15,500.00 for the diamond. I like to think that with all of the reading I''ve done over the past two months (literally at least an hour a day) that I am qualified to make an educated decision without running it by the PS members, but you guys are awesome and I can''t realistically compare to many of you here, let alone the combined knowledge available
.
Thanks for reading and any suggestions you have!
