Aug. 31: Today's recommended diamond is an Asscher cut. We are nearing the end of the Asscher cut series.. The diamond is a 1.21 carat diamond with F color and VS2 clarity. The diamond is an Ideal cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $6,540. This is another great example of a diamond that has it's share of inclusions and flaws, but it eye clean. Even knowing where they are, and you still can't see them. That makes it a good buy.
Aug. 30: Today's recommended diamond is an Asscher cut. We are nearing the end of the Asscher cut series.. The diamond is a 1.31 carat diamond, with G color and VS2 clarity. The diamond is an Ideal cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $7190.
Aug. 29: Today's recommended diamond is an Asscher cut. The diamond is a 1.51 crat diamond, with H color and VS2 clarity. The diamond is a Premium cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $7,890. The H color is a bit high for an Asscher, and might show the slight yellowish tinge, but the VS2 makes it eye clean, which you can tell by comparing the certificate plotting of inclusions to the actual diamond - it has its share, but you cant see them when looking at the diamond.
Aug. 27: Today's recommended diamond is an Asscher cut, and we now move below the $10k marker.. The diamond is a 1.52 carat diamond with F color and SI1 clarity. The diamond is an Ideal cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $9,840.

Aug. 24: Today's recommended diamond is an Asscher cut diamond. The diamond is a 2.01 carat diamond, with H color and VS2 clarity. The diamond is a Premium cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $12,540. The H color is a bit high for the Asscher cut diamond. Asscher cuts will show the yellower shading earlier than most other cuts, because of the more open facets. Still I recommend it, as the diamond is a great diamond, and the slight yellow that might be noticeable is made up for by the extra large size for this price range, with it weighing in at over 2 carats.

Aug. 15: I have focused on Princess cut diamonds for a while now, and despite not having delved into the large stones thoroughly, it is time to move on for a bit. We can come back to Princess at another time. So, today's recommended diamond is going to be an Asscher cut diamond. The diamond is a 0.70 carat diamond, with G color and VVS1 clarity. The diamond is a Good cut Asscher diamond, and it sells for $2,700. This diamond is a bit unusual to be in my recommended list, when comparing its features to those I normally tend to recommend. This diamond has a far better clarity than I normally suggest paying for. VVS1 is cleaner than what most people will appreciate, and if you can pay a couple hundred dollars less and get just as beautiful a stone that is VS1 or VS2 or even SI1, why pay more for a feature that you will never really appreciate? Another aspect is that this diamond is a cut rated "Good". That means the proportions and cut are going to allow a certain amount of leakage that will lose a bit of its brilliance. An Asscher cut diamond is different than other diamonds. It's beauty is special to the intricate cut and design. It is fairly similar to an emerald, with a very open face, and the internal inclusions are more easily seen, along with the low end of the color bar will show more color than on other shape diamonds. While normally it would be perfectly fine to buy a Round cut diamond that is H or I color and SI1 clarity, for example, and not really be giving up anything noticeable, while saving money in the process, with an Asscher cut you have to be a bit more discerning. You won't want to go beyond a VS2 clarity rating, and no further than a G color rating. The general recommendations are H and VS2, but I find H to generally have a bit more color than I like, so I recommend sticking with G as your maximum. So this diamond is a G color, and a VVS1 clarity, which is better than I should really recommend, but it is made up for with the "Good" cut rating. The diamond is a beautiful diamond, the VVS1 ensures it is beautiful with being crystal clear, literally, and the Good cut saves you on the price of the diamond.

A great ring to go with this diamond is this Platinum Bar Set Solitaire Diamond Engagement that sells for $1800 (white or yellow gold for $850) (and deduct 10% from the setting price using the Discount Code RING10). I like the bold look of this ring and it meshes beautifully with the Princess. -------------------------------------------
Aug. 11: Today's diamond is also going to be a Princess cut diamond, but I am going a bit larger today. The diamond is a 1.54 carat diamond, with G color and SI1 clarity. The diamond is a Premium cut Princess diamond, and it sells for $8,220. The diamond is a nice diamond. It has a few internal marks, but even with the plot from the certificate I was not able to see them with my eye. The proportions are premium quality, and the ratio is "spot on" at 1.00 to 1.
This is a great diamond at a great price. Go to James Allen to see further details of this diamond.
Aug. 10: Today's recommended diamond is another Princess cut diamond. Today's diamond is 1.02 carat diamond, with H color and VS2 clarity. The diamond is a Premium cut Princess, and it sells for $3,590. This diamond is very eye clean and is a great buy. When selecting today's diamond, I compared a number of diamonds all in the same range. A couple were in the SI1 and SI2 category, a couple had slightly better color (F,G), a couple were larger than this by a few points, and a couple were smaller, even lower than a carat. This was the cleanest of them all, in the same price range, and it is larger than a carat. Compared to other diamonds selling at this price, this one is really great value - it is a great diamond selling at a great price. Check out more details of this diamond on James Allen.
