i''m looking at purchasing some round diamond studs for my wife (approx. 1 ct t.w.)
does anyone have an idea of the "typical" quality one should purchase in a stone for earrings as compared to a ring?
I''m fairly set at getting something G-H color and SI1-SI3 clarity, but I''m not sure what i should be looking at for cut (table and depth %, and crown and pavillion angles)
I''ve found a lot of good info on Firescope.com but just don''t have a good feel what I should be paying for diamonds that will be in earrings.
I''ve seen prices (where no cut info is given) ranging from $1200-4000 (set stones).
anybody have any suggestions? thanks
