Hi,
I started looking at diamonds and I was hopping to get some opinions on a following diamond. Also, if you guys have suggestions on alternatives that would be great. I am looking for something in the ~1.25 carat range, I+, VS+, AGS0, and maybe H&A.
The diamond I am currently considering is: http://www.whiteflash.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut-loose-diamond-2231149.htm
Newbie questions:
1) Does it really matter to have H&A?
2) I have attached the sarin picture, I am not sure how to interpret it. Is it a good stone? I was confused by the girdle measurement, since it seems more like thin to thick. The deviation there worries me a bit.
3) Does it make sense to order the setting from the same place I am getting the stone? I was thinking of buying the diamond online and getting it set at a local jeweler.
4) Are there alternatives out there that are comparable or better for the same price range?
