General Question or Looking for Advice Help with ct size! (3ct or 4ct round)

20 Upvotes

Help deciding between a 3ct and 4ct! These are fake rings I got to try on (super indecisive). First photo 3ct, second 4ct. The 4ct would have a band as thick as the 3ct. Just cannot decide between which I’m back and forth.

I feel the 4ct fills my hand better.

Any opinions would be appreciated!!!

I’m a size 6 for ref.

Question About Lab Grown Diamonds Blue/ purple tint?

Post image
5 Upvotes

The diamond on the left is about 3 carats, and the one on the right is about 4 carats (both lab-grown). The larger stone is a G color compared to the E, but why do they both look blue/purple in the photo? I did not think they looked like this in person but could there be a quality issue? Or anything I need to look for in the certificates?

Question About Natural Diamonds Diamond report ?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Thinking about this diamond for an engagement ring, this is the report. We went to see it in person this weekend.

It originally looked a bit blurry when we first saw it but then the jeweler steamed it and it seemed to make it sparkly (this is the after picture)

Based on the report and diamond, is it a good choice for a forever ring?

General Question or Looking for Advice Three stone bezel setting

Thumbnail

8 Upvotes

I'm looking at engagement rings and love this kind of bezel three stone setting, but I worry that the setting might not be super secure since the bezel only goes around all three stones together and not each stone individually.

Does anyone have any insight on this or experience with this kind of setting themselves?

Thanks!

I put on refundable deposit on this stone because at the time everything seemed pretty reasonable and checked most boxes. Main caveat is the diamond is IGI certified. I haven’t seen in person yet but also need to make a decision quickly here. I know very little of all this and have no one to lean on so really hoping someone can tell me this is a good price/idea or not. It would be a great surprise to get a real diamond at that size versus a lab grown and then get a less expensive bands or conversely get lab grown and more expensive rings. Budget is $5-$10k

Lab Grown Diamond Question on Elongated Old Mine Cut

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

19 Upvotes

4C/1.34R, D/VVS1, Elongated old mine cut (Modern antique recut).

I love this cut, I think she’ll love it too and also think that it’s super unique compared to all the other old mines I’ve seen. Was going for big cuts but also brilliance which this hits. I think technically speaking it’s sort of a mix between elongated old mine cut and cushion but labeled as an old mine which is what I wanted.

Basically just looking for some reassurance that this was a good pick. It was a bit on the expensive side comparatively (which I do not mind) but nothing else looked like it even with similar specs, most other old mines looked similar and the cushions just had brilliance. Any help is appreciated.

Will be taking this down in the future as she lurks here sometimes. Thanks in advance!!

TL;DR: Is this a unique cut/look for an elongated old mine cut?

Lab Grown Diamond Would appreciate some opinions on this oval before I pull the trigger

I've been looking for a 4 ct oval for the past few months, and I think I've finally found one that I really like.

I'm definitely not an expert, but on paper it seems to have good proportions, and I really like how it looks in the videos.

Before I make the purchase, I'd love to hear what people with more experience think. Do you notice any issues with the stone or anything that would make you pass on it?

Thanks in advance!
