Hi all,
Newbie here, who has been spending some time lurking and getting aquatinted with the forum
I am in the process of designing / buying the e-ring. It is going to be in rose gold (going for the coppery end of the scale rather than pink) with a centrepiece around .95 - 1.3 carats in a half bezel, and a half-eternity melee.
I have been advised that I should be looking at a J or K diamond for the centrepiece, because I am going with rose gold. I definitely dislike the very white on rose gold contrast, and for sure want something a little warmer to complement the metal, but is that grading a little too far down? I don't want the diamond to look too yellow/brown...That said the advise I've had so far is that anything H or above would be a waste of money.
I'm also slightly nervous that if I get a centrepiece around that kind of colour grade, the melee is going to look weird if it is too white against it. For example, I'm looking at asking Whiteflash to make this ring, using ACA hearts and arrows centrepiece. They have told me that their melee will also be from ACA range, and will be either F or G How would that look with a J or K I wonder?
Thanks!
