Q&A: Help Choosing a Round Diamond for a Platinum Engagement Ring with Around $4k Budget

Hi, I’m looking for a diamond (0.9-1.02 Carat ideally) from James Allen.

1) My budget for the diamond is $4000.
2) Platinum setting
3) I’m planning to add it to the Setting
Platinum 0.40ct Common Prong Round Shaped Diamond Engagement Ring
SKU: 11104P.

I’d appreciate your wonderful expertise and advise! Thank you.

Just to be sure, you want the diamond to be round as well?Sometimes people buy a setting that says ’round’ and customize it for a different shape…

I plan on getting a round stone. Thank you for your help!

In that case, I love this one for you:

Its bright, eye-clean and a great cut. What do you think?

I love this diamond too. Thank you for your suggestion. I think my girlfriend will love it!

Thank you for your time!

My pleasure. Let me know how it goes.
