Understand cut must go for excellent.
How about colour and clarity? What is the minimum?
some people think that minimum for colour is F, cos they are more sensitive to the colour difference. some people think that G is good enough.
for clarity, i feel VS2 is the minimum. then again different diamonds have inclusions at different spots. a VS2 diamond with side inclusion may look better than a VS1 diamond with centre inclusion.
most importantly work within your budget.
Hi all, i am planning to get a proposal ring.. was wondering if 8k is enough to get a 0.7-0.8carat brellia or octavia.. i have been scouring around the thread but i have no idea.. or shud i revise my budget?? Many thx :/
$8k can get 0.7-0.8 carat inclusive of standard setting for super ideal diamond. if you want brellia/octavia, add about 20% more. if you want more elaborate setting, all in all should be about $10k.
