Hi everyone. I''''ve been "lurking" on this site ever since my boyfriend of six years and I decided to start talking about marriage. Even though its "his" job to do the diamond searching, I''''ve become obsessed with looking at rings and reading up on diamonds. This site is so unbelievably awesome and the pictures of everyone''''s rings are beautiful.
We did a "dry run" as my guy likes to call it at Jared''''s to do some diamond prices. I fell in love with this diamond:
.71
F
VS2
Sparkly and looked beautiful in any setting. I always thought I would like a bigger diamond but I loved this diamond so much.
So here''''s my question. Jared quoted the diamond at 3,500. This seems like too much for less than 1 carat and I''''ve done some internet pricing and have seen for less. Does this seem reasonable?
Also, if you guys wouldn''''t mind, the setting will be in 14K white gold but they mentioned having a platinum mounting for durability. Does anyone have any experience with this? Is it necessary? Does 285 sound reasonable for this?
Thanks so much for help.
