Hi all,
I was wondering if you had any thoughts on these two diamonds:
Diamond #1:

ASET: https://enchanteddiamonds.com/diamonds/image/medium/O180-0802Z8716_AST.jpg
Diamond #2:

ASET: https://enchanteddiamonds.com/diamonds/image/medium/O171-735146Z13_AST.jpg
Personally, I kind of liked #1 better since I felt that #2 has too strong of a bow tie. But since I wasn't quite sure why the green and red in the ASET of #1 was so faint, I was worried that maybe the light performance on #1 wasn't as good. Also, I was unsure how visible the cloud would be on #1, especially since it is on the face of the diamond.
I would also love to hear any other suggestions if you have any. My budget for the diamond was originally 15k, but I think the setting I like will be less than I had originally budgeted, so I have a little bit of wiggle room (2k or so). I think she cares more about size than color / clarity, but I kind of wanted to stay in the colorless (D-F) range since I wanted to do a platinum setting and I also preferred a clarity in the VS range.
I appreciate your inputs; thanks!
