Hello.
My budget for the stone is $2,800. I will use a petite micropavé ring in rose gold.
I feel that this stone is good value: Blue Nile LD10665428
I also found this: Blue Nile LD13170410
As for the two diamonds you found, here are my comments:
Blue Nile LD10665428 – Nice diamond. But the extremely thick girdle might take a bit of the weight. However, it’s not a big issue.
Blue Nile LD13170410 – This one is a little bit deeply cut. Out of these two, I would stick with the one above as it should refract light better. But it shouldn’t be bad either.
I found these alternatives:
Blue Nile LD13093941 – This one is slightly bigger but it’s rectangular.
Blue Nile LD13336461 – I don’t think the crystal on the table would be visible. You can ask BN to confirm the eye-cleanliness.
I did call BN about the diamond with the inclusion and they confirmed it’s eye clean. Let me know how that impacts any of the diamonds.
It’s up to you which stone you like the most. You won’t make a mistake with any of those diamonds, they all are very bright and brilliant. I would personally choose this diamond Blue Nile LD13338357 as it has perfect specs, better cut than the other two and the size is more or less the same (see the actual measurements). Also, it’s reasonably priced.
I got it! Thanks for your all of your help!! She is going to love it!
