Quick and Easy Buying Guide
Carat weight: 1 carat = 200 milligrams = 6.5 mm diameter. Doubling weight doesn't double diameter.
Diamond clarity: FL/IF/VVS/VS = super expensive, near perfect. SI = best value if you can check a photo for obvious inclusions (defects).
Color: D-G = colorless, expensive, only if you have money to burn. H-J = best value. Can go lower in gold metal settings than white metal.
Cut: Better cut ratings let more light into a diamond, making it sparkle more. Very important property, don't skimp here.
Set a budget and minimum cut (Premium). Go J color for gold and I/H for white metals. Go searching for SI1/SI2 clarity diamonds at James Allen. Pick a diamond with small/no inclusions. Choose a ring setting and buy it risk-free (60-day returns).

No pressure, no diamonds. Thomas Carlyle .
Girdle thickness (for this diamond the girdle is "Thin to medium") can play an important role in the size presented by the diamond, which is detailed in my article about girdle thickness. Many different companies will offer an Ideal cut diamond cut grading, and these diamonds are almost always (as is the situation here) perfect with respect to proportions and the general shape. By using only $1550 on the diamond, one can save more money to put towards other costs such as the wedding. An untrained eye won't notice the color in this H color diamond, unless the stone is held up against a diamond with say a D color rating (for multistone rings this is important).
If you are unsure from the photo of the SI1 clarity diamond on this page whether the diamond is eye-clean, try contacting a James Allen sales rep and asking them to specially assess the diamond and get back to you - the staff member will give you an honest answer. Place this 0.65 carat size in perspective when you consider your diamond options - there are for sure other diamonds in the same size range that could offer more in terms of their price and properties.
