We’ve been shopping for diamonds at a variety of sites and we’re having a lot of trouble narrowing things down. She prefers them as close to square as possible. And she seems to be somewhat color-sensitive. We just want a superb cut. Here is a partial list of our top picks.

Is there anything specific we should be looking for to determine which ones have the best cuts and value?

If cut is your priority, then BGD diamond is the way to go. Their cut is incomparable to others, the diamonds are incredibly brilliant and truly impressive. Not only do these conform to the strictest of cut parameters, but Brian himself selects them for optimal brilliance.
The stone from Blue Nile is great as well. The G SI1 from James Allen is cut a bit too deep and the D VS2 is no longer available.
Thanks for the advice. We’re actually considering another BGD stone which is a little bigger. It seems like your advice applies to BGD across the board, so perhaps we should just go ahead with it? This stone seems to have the same facet pattern as the other as well.
Here’s the link.

That’s why we love BGD so much – with them, you know that all their diamonds will always be absolutely perfect.

This one is another gorgeous option. It’s fantastically cut and perfectly square.
Thanks. I purchased this diamond yesterday.
