Hey everyone,
I'm completely new to diamonds and have been trying to do a lot of research before making my purchase. It's coming close for me to make a decision, so now it's time for me to request help from the wise and knowledgeable! The diamond I'm currently looking at is listed below with a price of $4,800. Does anyone see any problems with it or any recommendations? My max budget for the diamond itself is $5000. Ideally I was trying to get a better color, but wasn't able to find much without sacrificing on the carat (which I've already reduced from 1 ct to 0.9). I know if I jump down to a clarity of VS2 I can go to an 'H' color. The setting I'm planning to use is also below. Any thoughts and opinions would be very helpful! Thanks!
