Is it true that Round Diamonds look bigger on the ring than Princess Diamonds?
Also, do you still offer to help find a good online engagement ring diamond? Let me know and I would like to have you help me.
Yes, that is why they are more expensive.

What is your budget and what type of setting did you want?
Nice to hear from you.
My budget is up to $11,900 for the diamond. I know I want a 1.5 carat round diamond and hopefully an excellent / ideal cut (I have read this is the most important characteristic). Open to your feedback on color and clarity. I believe I want the diamond to be “eye clean.”
Looking at a Solitaire Platinum setting.
At the moment I have 3 diamonds on hold at James Allen – let me know if these look ok or are there others that might be better.
