Should I consider this?

[ashjade]

Ashjade - before we start evaluating other stones, just run by me what the previous stone lacks. If there's something more you're looking for, it would be helpful to know, so we can steer you in that direction. I think that 1ct H SI1 stone is a cracker - did you have reservations about it for some reason?

I think it just makes me nervous that it’s an si1 instead of a vs1/vs2. Maybe I’m being silly, though.

I think the SI1 is a nicer stone - more clearly defined pattern, higher crown.

Eye-clean is eye-clean. If I was buying, I wouldn't give it a second thought and I think you're worrying needlessly.

Thank you so between this one and the heart and arrows one, would you stick with the 1 carat still? Hearts and arrow is .86 carat. The SA said both were great choices.

I would stick with the H SI1. The H VS1 has too much contrast for my liking and as mrsb mentioned not as defined facet pattern. I too don't like to pay for something I can't see clarity wise.

Hi @ashjade -

My choice, compared to any other stone put forward on this thread, is the 1ct H SI1.
