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).

For $15300, you should be getting a nice stone; ensure that you are plenty critical when you're looking at this stone. SI stands for Slightly Included, which means that this SI1 stone contains inclusions which are certainly visible at 10 x magnification and may often be visible to the naked eye, but which offer the opportunity for significant price discounts if they're not. Make sure to have a look at nearby carat sizes around the 1.92 carat weight this diamond has, because in doing so your choices regarding other diamond properties may open up. The visual attractiveness of this diamond will be quite good due to its Premium cut, although not quite as good as the more expensive higher-rated cut grades.
Do not ignore diamond characteristics outside the four Cs, such as girdle thickness - which can be important for reasons outlined in the article on girdles on this website. This H color diamond is a whiter stone than the bottom normal color gradings of J and below; it's a great compromise between money considerations and quality, allowing you to get more in the other Cs of diamonds such as carat size.
