Hey all,
I''m looking for a hearts and arrows rb diamond for this setting:

I originally thought of a g colored diamond but after looking into it some more I''m thinking I may be able to get a larger stone if I get a I/J (or even K?) diamond. With the yellow gold setting, will there be a difference between colors? Also, with the sidestones in the setting being g-h, should I not go past H? Thanks for the input.

I believe the lowest colour JA do are J. A J or K are a softer white than the colourless stones, yes you could certainly go for a lower colour to get the maximum size for the budget if you wish. Also it is best to keep sidestones within 2 colour grades of the centre diamond, so J would be the maximum. Yellow gold setting is fine if that is what you prefer.
