Hello hello! I need some help finding an affordable round brilliant stone. I'm not in a time crunch at all so if anyone has any free time in the next few months, or comes across a great stone, I'd love if you could share it with me please! Originally I liked this hearts and arrows (those are the most sparkly, right?) LG691512551, but someone grabbed it before I could. It looked very eye clean to me and was sitting at $644.
I'm leaning more towards the following specs:
Color: E/D
Clarity: VVS2 or up
Carat: 2.15 to 2.4ish (a bit flexible on this)
I've been looking mainly at HPHT as they seem a bit clearer than CVD. I've noticed a lot of CVD are grainy in the 360 videos.
I would love to stay under the $750 range, but not sure if that's possible with the price increases lately. I've been trying to search on Calavera, but their website isn't super user friendly yet. I'm a complete diamond newbie and just on the hunt for finding a beautiful diamond with a ton of sparkle, while not breaking my boyfriend's bank haha. It's hard shopping for a stone online without seeing it in person, but retail stores just mark up the prices too much.
thank you!
