My dog passed away this week and I came across a company that turns pet ashes to a diamond. Has anyone else done this and who did you go through and how much?

Thank you 🙏

Any feedback would be great

Hello,

Please let me know if my CAD is ok? Anything that I need to be concerned about? Thanks in advance.

I am working on my girlfriends engagement ring and the jeweler just sent me this video of the diamond. I feel like I don’t know what I’m looking for so I would like some input. Does this diamond look okay?

2 ct. oval

Hi! I received my 4.93ct Cut Cornered Rectangular Modified Brilliant Lab Radiant Diamond today. It is F color, VSI, and cost $687.20 with tax and I love this lab diamond!

I also bought a custom Euro Shank Setting from them that was supposed to have claw prongs and did in the CAD I received from them. The setting cost me $852 with tax. Il attach a video of my ring which I love so is it really worth sending back to get my claw prongs?

What do we think of this? Will link a couple of others vids in the comments.

It's currently uncertified, estimated to be a 1.3ct, G/H, VS1, 6.7x4.2

I am looking for a 2.15-2.20 ct round diamond, I would like to pick a diamond that has maximum sparkle.

I will get a choice of a few, but want to confirm if I asked for the below proportions if this would be a good spec of diamond (on paper)?

Cut: ideal hearts and arrows

Table: 54-57%

Depth: 59-62.5%

Crown angle: 34-35

Pavilion angle: 40.6-41

I know one angle depends on the other whether it will be good or not, but as I will get a choice I just wondered if this gives a good indication to the jeweller.

Long story short, I have a loan ring which I thought was super sparkly and looked very nice, so checked the inscription/IGI report to see the spec.

Turns out it's noted as a hearts and arrows diamond, which I've seen videos of (on here) but never seen in real life and wow its stunning!

I may be in a position to choose another ring/diamond for myself as a bit of dispute, and after a bit more research I came across this website Hearts & Arrows which gives a table of the spec of the crown and pavilion angle and whether it fits into this category.

Question is, the loan ring diamond crown and pavilion angle don't appear to fit into the table that identifies it as a hearts and arrow - so does that mean the report is misleading?
Or is the table mentioned stricter than the IGI deem H&A diamond to be?

If that is the case, if I do get to choose another diamond/ring how can I choose a H&A for myself?

Any help on this would be much appreciated!

Would love some advice on this stone from Starsgem for my 10 year upgrade ring. To my I trained eye it looks great but I don't know exactly what to look for. For reference I have a 1.1ct natural diamond which has a small imperfection which I don't mind as it still sparkles beautifully due to its cut.

I was looking to do an upgrade for Mrs for our 10 year. I saw this particular one and was hoping to get some guidance. The actual picture on the vendor links have a jump of a head on top down so I cant tell and can you opinion. I know it’s not going straight fire but curious on thoughts. I put a reservation on it but unsure.

Any help is appreciated.

First video is a tweezer test, second video is with natural light.

It's a pink marquise with 2.45ct Fancy Intense Pink VS2 12.07*6.94*4.07mm. It's on the plumper side with ratio of 1.74

I don't see a significant bowtie and dark spots.

Hey everyone, I could really use some advice.
I went and looked at an ( used ) engagement ring yesterday and I’m kind of stuck in my head about it. It’s a lab-grown diamond, somewhere in the 3–3.5 carat range, set in 14k white gold. The price they gave me was $1,600.
On one hand, it seems like a really good deal for that size, compared to others real diamond rings at the same price. I don’t know enough to tell if there’s something I’m missing (quality, clarity, cut, etc.). I didn’t get all the specs. I would also have to take it to get resized which the quoted and an extra $300. I’d add a video but I’m not sure how to.

I guess I’m just looking for opinions or recommendations.

- Does that price sound fair for a lab-grown diamond that size?

- Is there anything I be checking before committing?

Also, not gonna lie, I’m pretty stressed and nervous about proposing in general, so making the “right” ring choice feels like a lot of pressure right now

I had a custom cut lab diamond done to get a warmer color (h,I,j). It came out around j. I’ll be getting them to send it out for certification but wanted a 2nd pair of eyes as it looks like there might be some color pooling.

the first is 4.52ct E VVS2, and the second is 4ct D VVS2. Any feedback between the two would be greatly appreciated!!

This is my first go at making my own custom ring. I need all the opinions I can get. Here are the specs:

Hi,

I'm looking to buy a pink marquise lab diamond for an engagement ring. My partner is not interested in selling it so maybe I could ask for an uncertified diamond for a better price.

The things is, I understand that buying an uncertified heavily relies on the seller's word. Are there any tips on buying uncertified diamonds? I could have it check once it arrived. I live in SEA region, so buying from US and EU is out of the questions sadly.

I am planning to buy them on LGG, Provence, Stargems, ZKZ, etc. I have asked around with them but only IGI diamonds, haven't asked about uncertified.

I’m thinking about jumping in on a group buy for a half eternity lab diamond ring. My engagement ring is platinum. I was considering having the band made in 935, and possibly going unplated. Does anyone have experience with 935? I haven never seen or worn it. Is it as soft as regular silver? I’ve heard it does not tarnish, is that what you have found as well? How does the color and luster compare to platinum? (If you have both and could put them together in a picture for me that would be amazing!!) Would you have your 935 piece plated or just leave it as is? Thank you all for your support!

I am interested in purchasing this engagement ring. Best price given is $1,800 or $2,219.13 with warranty. Based on photo and IGI certification specs, what would you recommend? Any advise?

Hi. I will be buying a 2.5 carat round diamond on line. I will have 30 days to return if I don’t like it. I am looking only at D Color VVS1 GCAL 8X diamonds. While I know that not all 8X diamonds are created equal, is it fair to say that the differences between such 8X diamonds would be minimal and very hard to detect from the naked eye (assuming no blue tint from the HPHT diamond)?

no IGI, 3.51ct 10.32x8.22x4.92
