Hi,
I’m looking for a Princess Cut Diamond that is at least 1CT or larger that will be mounted on a solitaire Platinum Ring.
Approximate Budget: $5K for the loose diamond
Metal: Platinum Ring
Style: Plain Solitaire
Plan to purchase next month.
Thanks!
What do you think of these?

I think they are great choices. They are both fantastically cut and eye-clean.
Thanks. Any other you would recommend now that the inventory could have changed as it’s been a month since we talked? Also between the two above which one would you choose?
I’d still recommend those. This is another option:
Okay, I’m thinking of leaning towards the 1.06CT one. But I’m trying to decide between a Solitaire Ring or a Paved Halo. What do you think? Would the color of the diamond be an issue with the side stones in the Halo ring? The Halo one is significantly more than the Solitaire in Platinum. I will probably go with the White Gold to keep the cost down if I went with the Halo instead of Platinum.

H color is perfectly fine with that setting. You have nothing to worry about with either setting you chose.
