call the owls asked:


I did a little research to get my mom a mother’s day gift and how much do you estimate this would cost- a pair of 1 carat f colored ideal cut vsi and good polishing. I have a 7000$ budget. Now I can either buy them online or go to a professional jeweller, but either way do you think 7000 will suffice?

    the easiest way is just to walk into a jeweller’s and ask them to explain it to you and show you something in your budget range. No one says you have to buy anything and you get a proper explanation and acutal visual of what sort of diamond you can buy.

    otherwise, just google it

    You can talk to Steve Moriarty from Moriarty’s Gem Art (www.moregems.com). I had the same types of questions about Tanzanite for my wife. He spent over an hour on the phone with me helping me figure out what to look for in Tanzanite. He is a gem cutter, so I am sure he could help you with Diamond buying.
