In a few months, I''ll be buying a ring for my girlfriend. I like fancy cuts, and I have a slew of questions to ask about certain ones. Mainly, what do I look for in each one?
1. What minimum color or clarity should I go for if I go Emerald?
2. Oval?
3. Pear?
4. Asscher?
5. Radiant?
6. I''ve seen plenty of good ones for an Emerald cut, but could anyone recommend a nice setting for a Pear, Oval, Asscher, or Radiant cut diamond? I''m pretty set on Platiunum for the metal.
7. Are these online jewelers pretty reliable? They seem to be. I''m looking mostly at Union Diamond and James Allen...how are they?
8. Is there any way that I can see pictures of the actual diamond before I buy them it an online jeweler?
I will appreciate any assistance. I''m looking to spend between 4-5k for the whole she-bang. Thanks.
