Hi all,

My last find didn't work out and now I'm on the hunt for my stone!!! My budget is $6k, but I can stretch it to $7k. I found a few that I like and would like your help to finalize the choice.

Thank you!

I would stick to option #2 or #3, either will be stunning. Have you run these through the HCA tool to see what they score?

Your first and last option provide no pictures, or IS images.

Love that WF stone!

I'd call GOG to see if that stone is eye-clean, as the inclusion is right under the table.

Which vendor has the setting you want?

 

[fstuff004]

GOG is closed today so I'll call tmr.

Here is the setting

Would this look good with <1 carat? I was told that it may look weird and need adjustment if the diamond is <1 carat. The ring size is 4.25.

Thanks.

Hi

I love the first stone and third stone, I would suggest to check if B2C could provide you the IS Image or ASET Image, HCA score is 0.7
and the price is the lowest.

Thanks all!

The GOG 1.09 carat is "eye clean". I am waiting to hear back from b2c jewel, crossing my fingers that they have the images.

The more I look, the more I find other amazing stones Here are 2 more, cheaper in price, with great performance. What do you guys think?

Also, are they too small to sit nicely in the setting?

Who told you it needs a 1ct stone? A jeweler, I hope! If you put a stone in it that's too small it may look off (the basket may show around the stone instead of sitting below the stone, if that makes any sense), and the prongs may not be able to be adjusted. If it's made for a 1ct I'd stick with a stone close to that diameter. I think the second GOG stone (0.94 G SI1) may fit (and it's beautiful!)
