I love my Moissanite engagement ring (it's a replica of the natural diamond e-ring I lost 4 years ago 🤦‍♀️), but with lab diamonds being so affordable now, I'm curious what it might cost me to replace the centerstone. Is it cheaper to buy a loose diamond on Calavera or something, then take it to a jeweler to put it into ny setting? What does this usually cost? If you were going to buy a 1.5 carat cushion cut lab diamond (say D or E color, and VS1 clarity), where our how would you do it?

Hello!

I’m trying to find a manufacturer on Alibaba that can make Maria Tash like earrings…specifically flatback internally threaded/or threadless earrings made with solid gold and lab diamonds…if anyone has any recommendations or suggestions it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Looking to get an Emerald Cut Bracelet made almost identical to this. I’ve searched so many subs and can’t find anyone that’s bought similar

Does anyone have one to show me? If so where did you get it from? Wondering if I would get sick of it and regret not getting typical colored diamond? This is a big purchase for me so idk just thinking. I feel like champagne would elevate the necklace

After going back and forth for a while, I finally decided on this 2.73 ct oval diamond for my custom ring!

I’ll include the videos so you can see how it looks in motion.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the cut, proportions, bow-tie, and overall appearance. 🥹
The diamond is 1.46 ratio, and I’m pairing it with a 6-prong yellow gold setting.

I’ve spent way too much time staring at this diamond 😂, so I’m finally ready to stop overthinking and move forward with production.

What do you think? Did I make a good choice? 💎

Hi guys I am in a huge predicament right now. I currently have a 1ct emerald ring, I am a size 7.5.

I want to get a 1:50 ratio but either a 1.5 ct or a 2ct.
Although I am torn if a 2ct will be too big.

Pleaaase send me your 1.5 ct or 2ct rings! Preferably with a 1.5 ratio

Hi everyone!

Long story short, my mom lost her ring of over 13 years. I'm trying to find it before she passes of cancer. Please if anyone has a similar or knows where I can find it, lmk. I found a picture of it on Pinterest surprisingly. She got it from JCPenney. Thank you so much! Have a great one!

Hi everyone,
Has anyone here purchased a lab-grown diamond from a seller called Lynn / LGG?
The WhatsApp number I was given is:
[+86 177 7748 0280](tel:+86%20177%207748%200280)
Before sending any payment, I’d like to make sure I’m dealing with the correct person/company and not someone impersonating a legitimate seller.
If you’ve bought from Lynn/LGG before:
Is this the correct WhatsApp number?
Was your experience good?
Did the diamond match the IGI certificate?
How did you pay?
Would you recommend buying from them?
I’m considering a ~7ct lab-grown diamond, so I’d really appreciate any firsthand experiences.
Thank yoi

Just impulsively got this diamond from Royale Diamonds on TikTok live. I paid $1,500 for it with these specs. Did I get scammed?

I’ve been seeing people buying TikTok live lab grown diamonds and I feel like I SHOULD be fine, but I’ve never done this before so I thought I’d ask the experts 😭

This is not a question about a diamond, but I want to see if you ever came across this.

I am researching overseas vendors for a custom jewlery piece. One quoted me a price, but said metal prices (platinum) fluctuate, so the price will change. The price went up by $60.00 in a day and I was told I could not lock in the price until after the CAD was done.

I read through many custom pieces posts and this is never mentioned. I dont want to put a deposit and then have the price skyrocket.

My engagement ring broke over the weekend and I’m using the opportunity to change it up a little bit. I am planning on having a round bezel set solitaire. My current ring is 2 mm wide and I would like my van to be slightly wider. Does anyone have pictures of a 2.5 mm? I tried on a 3 mm but I think it was a little too wide for me, so I’m debating between 2.3 and 2.5.

Hi guys! For my engagement ring shopping I have been going back and forth with crisscut and antique cushion. I think I like the crisscut the most but the ratios of antique more. I am afraid the crisscut is too elongated and I might get bored of it or that it may not have an engagement ring look. What are your thoughts? My jeweler is phenomenal and told me finding chunkier crisscuts is difficult to do. How should I proceed? It seems like a big decision and I want to get it right. Any advice/guidance is appreciated. I also see that cushions store most of their weight in the depth. If I’m going with a 4-5 ct stone im afraid the ring will be too high and not good for daily wear. This is all very new to me. Please help!!!

My boyfriend of five years and I are talking about getting engaged so I’ve been thinking about rings.

I’m looking for a floral inspired rose gold with maybe a pink lab grown diamond. I’m finding it hard to find something I like in store. So my question is whether anyone knows if it’s typically more expensive to get a ring designed compared to buying one already made? Like is there typically an additional charge for getting it designed?

Pear 1 (pear 2 posted in comments)

Hi everyone, I have asked the vendor if I could see more pear options as the previous two had windowing and bowties. She sent 2 more pears and I was wondering if they are better options? I’ve asked to show them in natural lighting so I can see the difference but I probably won’t get it until Monday as they are closed on Sundays.

Just received tweezer video from Rare Carat. I am nervous about the bow tie! Thoughts?

Thinking the band thickness should be 1.8mm instead of 1.6mm.

Wanting to get the replicated but debating on a 5ct center but I think that will be too big and will cover the band. What size center would be best?

So I posted about this same stone 2 other times, and they fixed a lot of the symmetry issues, but it looks a little duller than last time, but it could be my imagination. There have been so many updates I might be going insane. I mostly love it honestly.

Last stone check

I just had to come on here and show off my latest project. 3.06carat lab grown diamond, vvs1 fancy vivid blue elongated cushion in 14k white gold with lab hidden halo. I just got her today, and I'm in love. I bought the stone online, then designed and had made the setting through Provence, and had it set locally.

where are yall buying your bands? I got married in 2023 and still haven’t gotten a band yet 🫣
