What do you think of this one? Any other suggestions. The price for this is about 8650. Thanks in advance.

My first thoughts would be that the crown/pavilion angles are on the steep/deep side.

Crown angles between 34 - 35 degrees, and pavilion angles between 40.6 - 41 degrees are what we would usually aim for.

Before committing to it, I would suggest getting an Idealscope image for this diamond, so we can see if it appears to be leaking light.

*ETA* I don't know if your budget will stretch to this awesome stone: 1.53ct J VS2 H&A AGS0 Ideal cut $9418 bank wire price

The incredible cut will make it look at least as white as the I colour you posted.

The first diamond has a shallow pavilion angle, so an Idealscope would be necessary to evaluate it, however I much prefer the diamond Cleo suggested!
