Please help me decide on diamond for a three-stone ring

[mrsbrilliant]

I am choosing between the below two round diamonds for a three-stone ring. It will be set between two 0.5ct diamonds.

Carat: 2.07ct
Color: D
Clarity: SI1
Cut: Ideal
Symmetry: Excellent
Polish: Excellent
Measurement: 8.18 - 8.22 x 5.06mm
Depth: 61.8%
Table: 56.5%
Crown: 34.3
Pavilion: 41
Girdle thickness: medium (faceted)
HCA cut advisor score: 1.6

Carat: 2.03ct
Color: D
Clarity: VS2
Cut: Ideal
Symmetry: Excellent
Polish: Excellent
Measurement: 8.09 - 8.15 x 5.00mm
Depth: 61.6%
Table: 57%
Crown: 35.2
Pavilion: 40.7
Girdle thickness: medium to slightly thick (faceted)
HCA cut advisor score: 1.4
Hearts and arrows

Both diamonds look eye clean to me, but I'm a bit of a novice. The 2.03ct is about 20% more expensive than the 2.07ct. While I can stretch for the more expensive stone, I would really appreciate any opinions on whether it's "worth" the jump in price for the better clarity and hearts/arrows.

Any help would be very appreciated! Thank you so much.

Unfortunately I don't have hearts and arrows images - it's just listed as a note on the report.

These are both lab grown diamonds, correct?

Yes that's right. Oh I've just realised I should have posted this somewhere else. I'm sorry - newbie mistake! Am I able to move the post or should I start again?

You can hit the report concern button and ask the mod to move it to a different forum.

We really need to see images of the stones. Post them or links to the stones (after you put them on hold).
Admin will move your thread once they see the message.

Both of them have good specs and HCA scores.

Which one looks better to your eyes in various lighting conditions?
That is what matters most.
