Hi, everyone. Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I have been trying to find a close replica of the original Tiffany setting and after looking at countless posts on pricescope, I have started to lean towards the Vatche U113 platinum setting. If you think there is a better option, any opinions are greatly appreciated.
Now I am trying to find the best location to buy the Vatche U113 setting and the diamond. I am looking on White Flash at the moment. Would you recommend buying both the setting and diamond together there or buy the setting there and then find the diamond on a different website with more options? Which store should I have the setting and diamond put together at? This will be my first diamond I have ever purchased so any advice would be very helpful. This is the information that I've gathered so far that I am looking for in a diamond:
Round
Carat - 1
Color - G or H (Have some wiggle room here since cut/clarity are more important)
Clarity - VS2 (I will be buying the diamond most likely through a website so I will be unable to see the diamond itself in person. I don't want to risk having a diamond that is not eye clean. VS1 seems unnecessary.)
Cut - GIA Excellent (Cut is the most important)
Additional Guidelines I found here on PriceScope:
depth: 60-62%
table 54-57%
crown angle: 34-35 degrees
pavilion angle: 40.6-41 degrees (sometimes 41.0 if the crown angle is close to 34)
girdle: avoid extremes, look for thin to slightly thick, thin to medium etc.
Polish: Very good + above
Symmetry: Very good + above
Can anyone help me find some diamonds with the information I've shared?
