Both stones are great!!! I guess if I had to choose, I''d choose #1 because it is a little larger.

Ditto, looking at just the IS''s..


However, you didn''t put the color/clarity on the first, or the prices. Depending on what those were, it might change my opinion.

Color, clarity and price added to both now. Sorry for leaving that out.

No problem!

Ok, I changed my mind.

I''d go for the second one now. The size difference is not worth the extra money, plus, 2 is a higher color. So 2 gets my vote.
