Since we’ve returned from our trip, and our deposit returned on the ring we found in Barbados, our search resumes for a 2+ct cushion cut yellow diamond.
Looking for a FLY or FY colour that “glows”. Trying on multiple rings you can definitely tell the difference between those that truly glow vs. an ordinary yellow.
Pictured here is the FY one we put a deposit on…
Compared to another one I liked (FLY) pictured below it just didn’t have the same vibrance as the first one… it was just much warmer I guess.
I’ve done some initial searching and have found the following options:

https://www.ritani.com/products/2-0...-vvs1-clarity-gia-2454469778-sku-d-39bwff5swi (ranks lowest on Ritani’s gem score)
https://www.bluenile.com/colored-diamond-details/yellow-20017076 (1st choice)
https://www.bluenile.com/colored-diamond-details/yellow-20849330 (2nd choice)
https://www.bluenile.com/colored-diamond-details/yellow-20458322 (3rd choice)
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...shion-cut/2.36-carat-vs1-clarity-sku-20017076 (1st choice and same diamond/price from Blue Nile)
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...shion-cut/2.00-carat-vs1-clarity-sku-20250755 (looks a little hazy)
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...shion-cut/2.00-carat-vs2-clarity-sku-18645218 (slightly more elongated)
https://www.jamesallen.com/loose-di...shion-cut/2.01-carat-vs2-clarity-sku-19865079 (might be too square for my liking)
I’ve also considered lab grown but the options there seem to be more fancy or deeper coloured yellows than I personally like.
Thoughts on any of these stones?
Thank you!
