Just wanted to get opinions from people. I really like the solasferas, and was looking to purchase one as my budget would allow, the two up for comparison are both from gog,

0.83ct G SI1 Hand Selected Solasfera
6.10mm x 6.14mm x 3.75mm
Table Percentage: 52.64%
Depth Percentage: 61.42%

0.94ct H SI1 Hand Selected Solasfera
6.36mm x 6.44mm x 3.89mm
Table Percentage: 53.13%
Depth Percentage: 61.16%
http://www.goodoldgold.com/diamond/1863/

Obviously great briallancescope ratings on both, and they both look great except for the size difference and price. The second stone is .26mm wider, but would that justify the $1300 price difference? My gf ring size is 6, and I was really hoping to have money saved up after the stone for martin flyer setting in pink diamonds, which she loved. Would the small difference in size really be noticeable in a bezel or prong halo with pink diamonds?

The second question is whether I should just go for a bright RB Ideal cut, if I am going to use this setting in light of the stone being overshadowed by the setting which will not do the solasferas any justice.

Any advice wil be appreciated. I will attempt to attach the setting which she liked.

Just wanted to bump this up, I have indeed read the old solasfera threads, but this was not addressed. Again any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please correct me if I''m mistaken, but the spread doesn''t seem all that great on the .94ct.
