Welcome

Matatora is right, we need more info to help you. If you look at the vendors listing at the top of the page, you can look at those to get an idea.

Actually, if you look at the "Pricescope your diamond" toolbar at the top of the page, the last three boxes in that line of boxes takes you to the three databases on this board designed to take you to excellent options for shopping for what you''re looking for.

Using Ira's suggestion I used the pricescope your diamonds tool and couldn't find what you were looking for unfortunately. This isn't the usual sort of diamond you are seeking , many good vendors have a diamond request form, you could use that or ring them and ask if you know of any such diamond available. Maybe if you adjust your clarity specs a bit that might broaden your range. Bear in mind an S12 of that size and shape might not be eyelclean , so get your vendor to check carefully. Let the vendors know what you want and it might take a little while to find the right one but this might be the best way to go.

ETA - I found 2 4ct J si1 with the search tool with Abazias and other vendors, one with a GIA cert is above budget at $25K and one with an EGL at around $ 20K - they are out there just might take a little work and time to find the right one. I couldn't find an S12 with this method - however in such a large diamond an SI1 might be a better bet.

Do you possibly mean DBL? It''s Diamonds By Lauren at www.diamondsbylauren.com. David posts here quite often and has an excellent reputation.

Limited info comes up when you search on it on this forum, but you will find this entry.

Labs other than GIA & AGS, generally, may represent value, but in virtually all cases, their use may raise questions (since the more widely recognized GIA & AGS are readily available, along with some quality second tier players, including AGA and PGS), like, why were they sent there to begin with, and is the color and clarity as advertised, really. A follow up use of an appraiser is customary for any purchase, but may be considered a more central part of your "pre-checking process" in these cases.

Just my 2 cents.
