Hello

Could you please help me buy a diamond?

My budget is 15k for the loose diamond alone. This diamond seems to have good specs. Any recommendations?

What is more important to you? The ct weight or the cut?
This one is an ACA WF Round around your price point with ideal cut specs and better clarity, in spite of being graded VS2.
It’s lighter ct wt:

This one is an I color, but heavier ct wt, EX cut, even better clarity grade at VVS1, and under your max budget:

I would prefer to have this A Cut Above diamond from Whiteflash. The others aren’t ACAs.
 
Thank you for your input. Cut is more important than ct, weight, but I was hoping not to go lower than H in color.
 
This one is interesting.. JA True Hearts- 1.71ct G VS2 w/ small table crystal "freckle" which you can see in Magnification but most likely it's eye clean in real life...

I have a "True Hearts" diamond and it is beautiful. :kiss2: But I think the crystal on this table would bother me.

Thank you for the info.. I have been looking at this Diamond all week but cant make up my mind.. what size is your diamond if you dont mind me asking? I have tried on different sizes from 1ct to 2c and a 2ct looks stunning but my hands are big.. I am 7.5 ring size.
 
Thank

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to this post. I have been stalking that diamond,l and I am wondering if I should save up a bit more and get a bigger diamond since I tried on a 2ct and I really loved the size on my hand. I do know that cut is # 1 on my list though
 
something to keep in mind the jewelry store folks don't mention is DIAMETER of the stone.

If you are, for example, considering the three mentioned above stones, not only do you want to think about the carat wt BUT also the diameter of the stone.

Not all (for example) 2 carat stones have the same diameter; in fact there are stones that weigh in at 1.97, for example, that are the same (or very nearly the same) as a 2.02 stone and then there is a price 'bump' at 2.0. Something to keep in mind.
