H Joe-
Great website!
I’m looking for a round diamond, 1.50-1.55 ct, eye clean.
Through your website, I have looked at the following.
Could you provide some commentary on these and also let me know if there are alternative diamonds that would be a better choice?

Sorry, I’m still don’t know how to choose although you’ve mentioned black flux inclusions and blue hue problem.
Thank you,
Shawn
Options 1, 2, and 5 have a blue hue. Options 3 and 4 are the same link. Of these, I would go with the option 3/4 (1.50 D VS1, SKU 978713) because it has better optical symmetry than option 6 (1.51 E VS1).
You might also consider the option below to save some money with lower clarity. Not blue and optimal proportions.
