I recently got engaged and received a .49 princess cut diamond in a 14k white gold channel-set diamond band. My fiancé and I agreed that an upgrade on the diamond would be in the near future, and I’m looking to find something in the .7-.75 range. I’d like it to be near-colorless, and don’t mind inclusions as long as they aren’t visible to others…my current diamond has one that only I can see because I stare at it so hard, but it doesn’t bother me. We purchased the diamond at shane co and would like to use their easy upgrade policy to purchase the new one if at all possible. My budget is in the 2500$ range, and we spent 1500$ on my current diamond. I think the most important thing for me is a good cut so the most light shines through…I don’t mind a few minor imperfections like small inclusions that are not visible and lower color grades as long as the diamond doesn’t show it isn’t colorless.
$2,500 is more than enough for a 0.70ct.
This is a fantastic diamond. Bright, eye-clean and fantastically cut. What do you think?
Thank you for sending me the link for the diamond, it’s just what I’m looking for. I’m glad to hear that my budget is reasonable for the size diamond I want.
Thank you!
I’m glad to help. Please let me know how it looks when it arrives.
