It is a great diamond, depends on the price of course. Try here. They have nicer rings and better prices for diamonds.=&amp;price_to=&amp;color=%27E%27&amp;clarity=%27VS2%27&amp;clarity=%27SI1%27&amp;isHA=1&amp;cut_grade=1&amp;fromtabledepth=&amp;totabledepth=&amp;fromtablesize=&amp;totablesize=&amp;x=81&amp;y=15</description>

It depends on the setting. If it is a solitaire then I would say that it might need to be a bit bigger, just as everyone else has said if her hands are not like twigs. How do you plan on proposing?</description>

Personally, I think that .83 is a little bit small. Unless you have a really little hand, it is not going to stand out that much. I guess the most important thing is the cut, but I looked on blue nile and I can find rings that are more around .96 for only a little bit more. This is something that she is going to wear for the rest of her life (hopefully)....why not make it something wonderful? Congrats! I hope she says yes :)</description>

		<description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://diamondreference.net&quot;&gt;CUTTER&lt;/a&gt;


.83 is perfect if have a small finger. 
E color is good color
SI1 clarity is ok
but make sure that the cut is Very Good so that the diamond have a nice sparke
and make sure also that have a laser inscription on the diamond
and have certificate</description>

To the lady above me, rounds are NOT less expensive, they&#039;re usually more expensive because they have more facets and not to mention their value just went up this year. (I talked to my jeweler last month.)

Anyways E is a colorless diamond, so that&#039;s great, an SI1 is okay... and the ideal cut is key in your situation. I say go for it! Blue Nile is a great site but also check out their prices usually beat Blue Nile and they&#039;re an amazing company as well. But I say you&#039;ve done well with the diamond, its a great cut, color and size!!!! GO FOR IT!


EDIT
Check this one out...its a better clairty than the diamond you gave us the link to.</description>

Good diamond but a terrible price- rounds are typically cheaper than other cuts because they are easier to achieve... make sure you shop around! I was looking at a 1.02 carat pear colorless with SI1 for a lil under 4,000 

check out shane co results &#124;&#124;175&#124;5&#124;7&#124;288&#124;434&#124;0&#124;100000&#124;30&#124;526&#124;true&#124;true&amp;Pg=1&amp;innerHTMLResults_element=clarity&amp;x=&amp;fromsearch=y</description>

Shopping for a good diamond can be confusing even for an expert! I&#039;d do more research before selecting anything so you&#039;ll be sure to know exactly what you&#039;re getting before it arrives at your door and it&#039;s not what you expected. These websites should help you out, but I&#039;d still talk to a few jewelery stores before buying anything.





Good luck!</description>

E color is not so good. 
But if you are going for a bigger diamond and can sacrifice a little on quality, then go for it. That is a great website for diamonds though,. You are on the right track!
Does your girl like round stones? Most girls now days like radiant or princess... radiant cut is more &quot;brilliant&quot; meaning it will &quot;sparkle&quot; more. I would go for a radiant. I love mine... initially I wanted a princess until I learned more about the cuts... Go talk to a jeweler about diamonds and get a quick info session and then go to bluenile.com. 
Good luck! :)</description>
