Looking to buy the wife a pair of Round dia studs . Prefer 3 prong setting in 18K wht gold or Plat.
TDW 2.2 to 2.5 CT TDW . A good match pair. Budget is $12K . Please let me know what you can find. VS1 – H or better . $8K-$12K max.
I think you should reconsider your parameters.
1) I don’t think you can get a 2.20ctw H VS1 well cut pair for that price.
2) We never recommend that clarity. https://www.diamonds.pro/truth-about/diamond-clarity/ and certainly not for studs https://www.diamonds.pro/education/stud-earrings/
Ok I am opento what you can recommend.
Here is a pair I’d recommend for you:

What do you think?
Looks like a nice pair. What can you tell me about this dealer??? Are you tied in with them??? And how and I guess a fair question why do you do this for folks like me. ?? Your help is greatly appreciated . I will contact this dealer and discuss these stones. They can set these correct ?? Lastly I did want your opinion on settings, Why do some recommend 3 prong over 4. My wife likes white Gold or Plat. Thanks.
1) We recommend about 5-6 websites that we have thoroughly vetted. James Allen happens to be our favorite. We have secret shopped them (in JA’s case, multiple times) and have had plenty of feedback from readers about them. https://www.diamonds.pro/reviews/james-allen/
2) While our goal is to help people, we are not altruistic 🙂 If I wasn’t making money I probably wouldn’t be answering your email at 7am right now. https://www.diamonds.pro/truth-about/diamonds-pro/
3) I would stick with 4 prong. They are more secure.
