Please review diamond for me:
It’s going in a yellow gold solitaire setting.
I wouldn’t recommend it because of the knot – it might disrupt the integrity of the diamond. We always try to avoid knots, etch channels and cavities as much as possible. But the cut is perfect. Before I recommend any alternatives, could you please tell me whether the setting you chose has white gold prongs or yellow gold prongs? If it has white gold prongs then J color would be a safer choice.
It has white prongs. Thanks!
Perfect, thank you. I found these diamonds for you:

I like the one on the bottom so I am going with that one. This has been a big help!
That’s wonderful news! It was my pleasure helping you. I hope that stone will meet (or exceed) your expectations.
