#3 is my pick... simply because it scores more "ideal". It really is stunning!

Mine too. #3 is the least expensive and faces up larger than your other options. I saw your other post...and I think you need to decide what's more important to you. If you think you want to get a larger stone, then I suggest you put your money towards the biggest stone you can afford and then upgrading the setting later on.

Thanks 04diamond<3!

The setting will be the same for both. it's just a matter of smaller diamond (1.0 cwt) with uniqueness and ideal performance vs. slightly larger diamond (1.25) that has great but not as ideal optics.

Glad you were able to find a video with these three. After seeing the video, my choice is definitely #2 (G/VS2). There's not a large enough size increase or difference in performance between 2 & 3 (to me, personally) to warrant going down to "I" in color. So given these three, I'd go with #2.

That said however, I saw your other post asking for our opinions between the uniqueness of a smaller diamond vs the larger size of a high performing modern cushion. I'd definitely go with the larger size of the modern cushion, no question, but I'd insist that you work with Jonathan to find a HIGH PEFORMING cushion (which he can do for you in his sleep ). In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if he was able to find something that has a little larger spread but is still within your budget.

Which of these two shapes does your future fiancee prefer?
