I am facing a serious dilemma here.
I honestly don't know what to choose and I need help!

I completely fell in love with the Cartier ballerine setting and I went to the store today but the only one that they have is a 1.7 carat E color VVS1 very good cut for 48,000 and that is out of our budget. I really wanted the diamond to be in the 1.5-2.0 range but everything that they had was out of our budget range. I would have to get a smaller diamond if it's within out budget range.

However, I can get a GIA certified diamond ring that is 2.01 carat G color VVS2 very good cut for 30,000.

Both diamonds are the round brilliant.

Should I get the cartier with a smaller diamond or a 2 carat diamond ring that is not cartier.

Please help me decide ladies :-s

I know its VERY tempting to buy the Cartier ring because at the end of the day it is a Cartier, but if I were u I would definately go for the bigger stone size.. :smile1:
 
I have the exact same dilemma as yours! Tiffany/smaller carat or no name/bigger carat. I agree with others would you rather say it's from Cartier or just talk about the carat size? Good luck on your decision!!
 
OP have you made a decision yet? I'm a complete package girl. I would much rather have a 1 carat flawless diamond in a setting that makes me swoon than a ring twice as big that's almost flawless in a setting that I feel is second best.
