Best I1 Clarity Diamond for $17000: 3.05 Carat H Color Pear Shape
ByNothing like the start of a fresh new Daily Diamond series. This one is particularly exciting for me. This series, more than any other, will leverage my skill and experience in the diamond business with James Allen‘s virtual loupe to provide you with unparalleled value. Buying I1 clarity diamonds is not possible with other vendors – most don’t offer then, but even those who do don’t offer magnified pictures. Since the majority of I1s are not eye-clean, you’d most likely wind up being disappointed.
Also, I don’t recommend you buy an I1 without consulting myself or another expert. I am confident that I can tell whether or not a diamond will be eye-clean based on its virtual loupe photo. But this is only because I have looked at so many diamonds through a loupe and without that I have the strong sense to be able to distinguish which magnified stone will be eye-clean and which stone will not be eye-clean.
Today, we begin with a $17,000 budget and have landed ourselves a monster 3 carat Pear Shape.

James Allen also has a great selection of engagement rings to choose from to match with this diamond. Unlike smaller stones where you don’t want to take away from the center stone, a giant stone like this one can afford to sit on top of some bling. I think this ring from James Allen would be perfect for a monster diamond like this one: Platinum Baguette Tapered Baguette Diamond Engagement Ring.
