Hi,

I'm narrowing in on a pair of diamonds for studs. I would like any feedback on the two diamonds below - my thought process is, they seem like a sweetspot balance of price/quality (H/SI1, .6ct each) my only concern is if these will be too small (when I was originally looking at .75ct but couldn't find as good a value pair) and confirming they are in fact good diamonds. I am planning to use three-prong martini settings and am considering Brian Gavin's jackets to compensate for the smaller size.

Any feedback is appreciated.
Thanks,
Avi

looks good to me (though I'm no expert!)...can't wait to see the final product!
 
They're v nice diamonds and they're very well-matched - though if they're going back to JA you might request a retake of the hearts pic on the second one, for submission to your insurance company.

They'd make a lovely pair of earrings!
