Q&A: Help Finding a Pair of .80 Ctw. Round Cut Diamond Stud Earrings for Around $1,600

By Mike Fried,

Hi,

I’m looking to buy a pair of diamond stud earrings. My budget is £1200 for the stones only. I am based in UK and would prefer to buy from Blue Nile. I’d love the stones to be 0.3-0.5 carat.

I would appreciate your help.

Thank you.

We have great experiences with Blue Nile jewelry:

What do you think?

I used your advice in the past when I bought a diamond pedant for myself and also recommended your service to my brother in law when he decided to proposed to her girlfriend.

I would need your help once again.

As per my previous email I am looking to buy a pair of diamond studs. I would need to place an order as soon as possible. The diamond I am looking for would need to be in total around 0.8 carat and not less than color H. My budget is around £1200

Would you recommend any particular stones from Blue Nile?

I’m glad that you were pleased with our service.

I like this pair for you:
Blue Nile LD09474431
Blue Nile LD09124365

They are well cut and match perfectly.

What do you think?

Thank you for your suggestions and for a discount code.

Unfortunately one of the stones is no longer available.

Also I was wondering if we can low the clarity of the stones and increased the weight. Do you think it is possible to find a pair of stones with each being 0.4 carat, H color, ideal cut and si1-si2 clarity?

Thank you.

I found this beautifully cut pair:
Blue Nile LD09163625
Blue Nile LD09061242

They look really great.

What do you think?

I like them both. Is it ok that one of the, is 0.39 and another is 0.41? And I think the bigger one is already gone 🙁

I am on holiday at the moment so I can read the emails straight away but I have to place an order tomorrow or the day after tomorrow the latest.

I really hope we’ll find something together.

Thank you.

That’s too bad. It’s really difficult to find a good looking SI2 diamond.

The difference in size would not be noticeable.

This one will make a good alternative:

Best wishes.
