Its amazing how much price varies for diamonds. If you buy a 1ct diamond with almost perfect Cut, Color and Clarity your looking at 10K for just the stone.


I highly recomend Soloman Brothers in Buckhead, Anthony really took care of me when I bought my girls ring.

I will never buy a diamond as long as DeBeers has a cartel clutch on the industry and overvalues every stone.

Buy Moissanite instead. Physically indistinguishable from a diamond except via a couple of specialized pieces of equipment, twice the brilliance and refractive index as a diamond, and almost as hard (9.5 hardness index instead of 10). Even better, they're not naturally occuring on this planet!
