Looking for a round or cushion cut diamond to go in a halo setting. Looking to spend up to $1300 for the diamond.
I looked around and I like these diamonds for you:
Blue Nile LD08495751
Blue Nile LD08527592
Blue Nile LD08732210
They are well cut and any of them will be very brilliant.
What do you think?
Thanks for getting back to me.
I did some more searching and wanted to know what you thought about these diamonds:
1) www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.55-carat-g-color-si1-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-2803720?a_aid=dmnd1357
2) www.jamesallen.com/loose-diamonds/round-cut/0.56-carat-h-color-si1-clarity-excellent-cut-sku-1048593?a_aid=dmnd1357
3) Blue Nile LD06936341
4) Blue Nile LD08694037
5) Blue Nile LD08697502
Thank you!
You’re welcome.
Now, on to the diamonds:
1) SKU2803720 – I’m not a huge fan of its cut and also, the cloud being the only clarity characteristic is a concern. It negatively affects the brilliance.
2) SKU1048593 – again, its cut is nothing special. We recommend avoiding IGI lab if possible: https://www.diamonds.pro/education/igi/. Their lab is less consistent and they inflate the color/clarity grades by at least one (on average).
3) LD06936341 – this is a very nice diamond, I like it a lot.
4) LD08694037 – this one is cut too deep and will be less brilliance. And the cloud is another red flag.
5) LD08697502 – the table % of 61 is too high. The diamond will lose some of its brilliance. It’s better to keep it under 59%.
I’m looking at a ring at Blue Nile:
Blue Nile LD08404274
Blue Nile Truly Zac Posen Graduated Halo Diamond Engagement Ring
My budget for the diamond is around $1750 at the moment, does that one look good? And do you have any coupon codes for BN?
Thanks.
