I wanted to run, but I can’t. I already paid a deposit and I’m locked into the diamond. I made my peace with it. Jeweler is working on the setting now.
1.8 carat D VVS2 3Ex Natural
The proportions are far from ideal, but almost perfect for what she wants (I think). As a result, I know the fire isn’t there, but I do appreciate the whiteness and clarity (assuming my research findings and newfound knowledge/understanding of those implications are correct). I know you can’t tell it’s a VVS2 and a D color, I know I paid a premium, but that was more of a principle thing on my end.

Girdle 3%
Now here’s my question:
Since there is a lot of light leakage, how do I strategize on the setting/mounting to solve for the light leakage that will happen due to these proportions? Ig make the basket thicker, etc? In theory, will that even help? She said simple and elegant - so, this is a round, solitaire in platinum.
