They are BOTH just gorgeous! I think the highest cut a person can afford is actually more important than the color. I just love the fire and sparkle of a perfectly cut diamond whether it's a natural grown diamond or a lab grown diamond. Thank you for taking the time to compare these. :)
I could tell immediately. And I just stumbled on this video thanks to RU-vid algorithm. I know nothing about diamonds but yeah, once you told about one being “warmer”, I could tell at once. For what I just looked up online yes, I’d pay for the difference as it is immediately noticeable to me.
I’d always go for F color. However, this is a nice H. I think if the stone is being set in a yellow gold, then it makes sense to get the H color diamond, as that yellow gold will be slightly reflected through the diamond anyway, and it will then have a slightly warmer tone. But, for platinum diamond settings or white gold, I say go for colorless! Both rings are very pretty! I could tell the colorless was ring A, especially in the indoor lighting and direct sunlight. It was harder to tell the color difference when outside.
I am so proud that I guessed it right when it was outdoors you can tell very very faint hue but indoors no difference at all, can you please make a video comparing H and K colors.
It depends on the diamond's fluorescence. I choose a stone for its cut and lack of light leakage over color. I'd be happy with a Z color diamond if it has an ideal cut!!
You also could've added the details of their carat, clarity and cut details, so we understand how a "x" carat diamond looks like. Ring B looks slightly warmer to me, which is because they're side-by-side, and also on a white metal. If you made diamond rings with gold, like how we do it traditionally in India, even warmer diamonds would looks extremely beautiful. That's why I go with carat, cut and clarity rather than color, for gold.
Yeah I can tell straight away, as with the other videos Ive seen. As nice as the H is still, for what I want in the engagement ring and with me being a perfectionist, I've got for an F colour, Excellent+ cut, also gone for an ever so slightly bigger than typical diamond in a 1.56 which I feel makes the colour more important also in a white gold setting and its VVS2 with the two tiny imperfections clear from the table and virtually impossible to see even when trying to find them up close.
I don’t suggest you go any lower in grade than SI2. The eye-clean clarity will also be based on where the inclusions are located within that stone and what type of inclusions the diamond has.
