Re: Engagement/ Wedding rings and bands
hey guppies :)
i've come down to chosing my center stone. i have a few in mind but want help from those of you with experience dealing with bluenile. help me select the stone that will give me the best WOW factor. the setting is a Four-Stone Diamond Engagement Ring Setting in Platinum (5/8 ct. tw.) VS2 and H in color with a 5 stone diamond band (.75 ct tw). here's the specs for the center stone i'm considering. it comes with a GIA report. please give me your honest feedback. i don't have a hard preference for a particular color or carat or clarity, but do want an excellent cut as i've learned thats the most important C :). i want the center stone to look bright and bigger than what it really is and just WOW people with its fire :). here's the specs of the stone i'm considering:
Price: $3,003
Bank wire price: $2,958
Carat weight: 0.74
Cut: Ideal
Color: G
Clarity: VS2
Depth %: 61.5%
Table %: 55%
Symmetry: Excellent
Polish: Excellent
Girdle: Medium
Culet: None
Fluorescence: None
Measurements: 5.83 x 5.85 x 3.59 mm
is this a good stone for the price? if not, can someone suggest another one from bluenile.com?
the setting (including the band is going to cost me $3300...its platinum and the diamonds weight a total of 1.45 carats- not including the center stone)
my budget for the entire ring including diamond, setting and band is $6500 max.
