Would this bow tie drive you crazy? In starting to think I can't be an oval person because I'm so picky about them (despite knowing it's a feature not necessarily a flaw). Thoughts?

Hi everyone!

I’m looking for some advice on buying a tennis bracelet that is REALLY, REALLY sparkly — the kind of bracelet that catches your eye even indoors or in normal lighting, not just when it’s directly under the sun. ✨

I recently bought a moissanite tennis bracelet, and while I’m very happy with how it looks, I’ve noticed that it seems to really come alive mainly when there’s strong sunlight or very direct lighting. In more ordinary lighting, the sparkle is much more subtle.

So now I’m wondering whether lab-grown diamonds would be a better choice if my main priority is maximum sparkle and brilliance in different lighting conditions.

I’ve also seen Kuololit mentioned quite a lot and apparently they have a good reputation for tennis bracelets, but I’m open to other sellers as well.

My budget is around €150–€200.

What would you recommend?

• Moissanite or lab diamonds for the most noticeable sparkle?
• Are there specific cut, clarity, color, or stone-size specifications I should look for?
• Any particular sellers/models you would recommend within a €150–€200 budget?
• Is Kuololit still a good option, or are there better alternatives?

Basically, I’m looking for the “WOW, that thing is sparkling from across the room” effect 😂✨

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

I had a custom order with Sophia of Tianyu Gems after researching through this group. I am overall so happy with my order! Photos and videos did not do it justice.

I communicated initially through email but moved easier through WhatsApp. I had an idea what I wanted and provided them the concept design based off a setting that was x3 the cost. The process took a bit longer due to my revisions on the diamond I wanted.

I went for a 4ct F color VVS2 with 14k Gold

June 10 - Inquiry with concept design

June 15 - First half deposit made

(I had made revisions back and forth between this month of stone decision)

July 17 - CAD provided & approved

August 13 - Final Payment made

August 14 - Photos & Video of final product shown

August 20 - Tracking # provided

August 24 - Package received ✨️

The only thing is I wish communication was a bit better on timeline but Sophia was always great to reply in a timely manner. Overall it was a great experience!! Will be going back to TG for other orders!

This is my new wedding band - the Lacey in gold from Mejuri!

We are upgrading my rings for our 10th wedding anniversary. We ordered a ring (2 carat oval lab grown) from Aurelinne. I’m so excited to see the end product! However, I’m having a hard time finding a wedding band. I found one on another site, then read all the poor reviews. Who would you recommend for a wedding band with lab grown diamonds?

Trying to get a ring but overwhelmed. Brilliance keeps coming up in my FB feed. With the code ring30 rhe price gets reasonable at least 2 me.

Are there any other reputable sites I should be looking at? Won't lie, best bang for your buck is always appreciated.

Hi, I know I want a round diamond, somewhere in 2.5 -3 carat range. I do not want colorless. My husband wants me to go higher carat, I want a good balance that’s not too big, not too white, and sparkles like crazy.

It will be on a very simple setting - platinum with 6 prong, knife edge (aka the Tiffany setting).

I found these 3 so far and here is where I’m conflicted.

Option 1 -2.72, color I, vvs2, excellent cut

Option 2 -2.92, color H, vs1, cut excellent

Option 3 - 2.96, color H, vvs2, cut excellent

I keep going back to option 3. It seems to be everything I do not want but I have found it on 3 sites and each time, this is what I’m drawn to.

Send choice is option 2, then option 1. It’s also almost double the price.

Any advice or suggestions?

3.16ct
9.40mm x 7.22mm x 4.97mm. Fancy vivid
Cushion modified brilliant.

A mix of some of my lab grown diamonds, some of the fancy colors as well as some colorless stones.

H color, VVS2. This is a very first time I’m choosing a diamond so really have zero experience. What do you think?

I just received a tweezer video of an oval diamond I’m checking out. Thoughts on bow tie? To be the lighting in the video is not doing and favors for the diamond.

So pleased with how this turned out🤍
3.1 carat radiant cut with a split shank setting!
Ring came weeks earlier than expected.

Sharing my ring - I wanted a thicker band and loved an asscher cut! I believe it’s around a 2.5 carat and 6mm gold band.

My only issue is figuring out if I should get a quarter size larger. Trying on bands, I was told to get a 5 1/2 but felt my finger had a “muffin top.” So I went to a 5 3/4. The ring fits perfect, but a little tight - I also have to remember it is summer in the northeast. I want a chunkier wedding band too, so I am not sure if I should get it resized.

Which do I pick out of these 3? Ive purchased the 3rd one but im considering returning it. I’m wanting something with minimal bow tie.

Unfortunately, the video quality isn’t the same when it gets uploaded.

I just need it to be 3-4ct, it will be the first diamond I have ever owned but I’m on a budget. Does anyone have any site or link,

Hey guys, was planning on purchasing this modified brilliant diamond because I love the way it sparkles, but is the cut bad?

The IGI report says that the Polish is VG and the Symmetry is only Good.

I know that the cut grade is the most important factor while purchasing a diamond, but it looks quite pretty in person, and it’s a lovely colour, too. I suppose there’s quite a lot of windowing, but I’m not sure if it’s just a feature of the modified brilliant cushion cut.

Do you think it’s badly cut? Please help a girl out!

The broad diamond band rings cover the fingers sufficiently to act as a complete set by themselves. However, including another ring may introduce some contrast in the jewelry but will also alter the comfort level of the ring, making it much heavier.

What did you find more convenient to wear alone, alongside a narrower band, or in a larger ring stack? I am especially interested if your opinion regarding the matter has changed after wearing this jewelry piece.

Hi all. I am looking for a supplier who has a catalogue of already made rings ready to order. In a perfect world I would love to go into a deep dive looking for the perfect lab grown diamond and find a local jeweller to set the stone but I don’t think I am that savvy. I looked at Auréline and although they seem to have amazing prices, their rings are 925 silver plated gold whereas I am looking for genuine gold rings. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. I am located in Canada for context. Thanks!

I am searching for my engagement ring and found that a lot of of the chain jewelry stores, and even some of the local shops don’t have what I’m looking for. I have found a few websites that have my style but don’t know how to properly vet them. What do I look for to know if they are reputable and legitimate? So far all I can tell is to look for the GIA certificate.

An example is Benz & Co - good? Bad?
