Same Diamond as Above, Zoomed Out

Diamond Magnified 20x - Click to Enlarge

also has a great selection of engagement rings to choose from to match with this diamond.   If you’d like a setting that’s both svelte and elegantly simple with some pave accents, you might like to try ’s 18k White Gold 0.30ctw Common Prong Diamond Engagement Ring.  This ring is a great way to show off this round brilliant diamond.

Today’s diamond is really the perfect example of why I decided to do a daily diamond series of selections of specifically diamonds.  Take a look at the zoomed out photo to the left.  That picture is still significantly larger than the actual size of the diamond, and it’s still completely clean to the naked eye.  Other than the very small black crystal on the top left in the picture, there’s a very faint feather that’s so faint it’ll be completely invisible to the naked eye.

Even though the stone is an I1, it will still be clean to the naked eye.  It’s a big advantage that the center of the stone is completely clean. Furthermore you will be able to obscure a good portion of the inclusion with a prong of the setting.

I recognize that the Length/Width ratio on this stone is really pushing the bounds of what is considered .  GIA defines as having a l/w ratio of 1.00 to 1.05.  This stone has a l/w ratio of 1.06.  So I would recommend for anyone considering buying this stone to look carefully at the picture above to ascertain for his or herself whether or not the stone looks to you.  If so, then go for it!  If it looks off- to you, then it’s better to pass on it.

Moving right along from the $3000 diamond budget, we arrive at our next diamond in the series.  This time, I have picked the best diamond for a $2500 budget.  We have finally breaches the 1.00 carat wall.  There actually were several 1.00+ carat diamonds that I found for $2500, but they all had eye-visible I1 inclusions.  Today’s diamond was the largest diamond I could find for $2500.  Even though today’s diamond is under a full carat, it still has the diameter of a full carat diamond.
