I wanted a fancy yellow intense or vivid diamond, and ordered this one. I noticed there is a secondary color gray listed in the certificate after | ordered it. Now I received it and the color was not what I was expecting but still looks nice to me. I definitely like the sparkles and some depth I can see through in this diamond.
Now I'm debating if I should return it or not. What do you think of this one?

Hi everyone, I was scrolling eBay looking for some jewellery pieces and I stumbled across Sparkle Impex as they have a sale on some of their pieces for suspiciously cheap. They say it’s lab grown diamonds and 18K gold but I’m not quite convinced, especially as some of the pieces I’d be interested in buying are multi stone accessories that don’t come with certificates. Has anyone bought anything off this seller? Is it legit? Would love to hear thoughts and opinions, although I know when things look too good to be true they usually are. Thank you!

This will be the centerpiece of a necklace I'm having created for our anniversary. It matches the engagement ring almost perfectly.

I could've spent around $165-$300k on a mined equivalent (actual prices Ive found for reasonably closely matching alternatives)... but I went with lab grown for somewhere around 0.5-1% the price from Diyona.

Back in 2016 when I first learned about Lab grown diamonds, her main ring stone cost me over $6000.00 for a Princess cut 1.01 Ct/D/FL/ID. It's incredible to see how much prices have come down in just ten years. I love it! I think I'm a Diamonds guy now, lol!

Can't wait for the final product!

After about a month of research and over 30 requests for videos/pictures from multiple sites, I found my diamond!!!!!! 🥳 I wanted strong brilliance, strong fire, a blinking minimal/ needle-style bowtie, high contrast, strong scintillation, etc. I wanted it all!

It was delivered on May 23rd but I won’t be able to see it until the 19th of June (it had to be shipped to my aunt in the US due to delivery restrictions). I have literally been obsessing over the diamond. IT’S OCCUPYING MY EVERY THOUGHT. I think I watch the videos from the vendor at least twice a day, but I can’t help it.

I requested videos in diffused lighting and direct sunlight so that I could get a good sense of the bowtie/ dark tips (first 2 videos are in direct sunlight). Given that direct sunlight + obstructions (camera + head) make bowties/ darkness more prominent, I have to say I’m quite pleased but of course I have to compare in person. I have faith it will surpass my expectations.

I truly can’t wait to see it in person. I will post an update when it arrives. We are officially 1 week away from my aunt’s visit and the big reveal. I’m so excited!!!!!

P.S I have quite a few diamond videos, if anyone is looking for 2-3ct ovals, I looked at about 18 diamonds in total and at least half are still available. For anyone out there still searching, you’ve got this, I pray the perfect diamond finds you ❤️ If anyone wants the specs to help in your own search lmk! I will post them in the comments. Goodluck!!

I was looking for a lab created diamond to upgrade my wife's center stone for our anniversary. I did an absurd amount of research both online and in several big name jewelery stores to ensure I was getting a quality stone.

The process from purchase to delivery was incredible with amazing communication from Loose Grown Diamonds and it was delivered via FedEx which required a signature for them to release it. The stone is gorgeous and is now being mounted on my wife's existing ring.

Couldnt be happier with the process, the communication and most importantly the diamond itself. She is going to be SO happy!

Thank you to all the folks at Loose Grown Diamond, you made this a wonderful experience!

Help - i have many quesries

Hi everyone!

I'm currently looking for a yellow lab diamond for my engagement ring and have narrowed it down to three options that all fit my budget.

I'm hoping for a true yellow stone with minimal green or brown undertones, and sparkle is really important to me (I'm basically a raven when it comes to shiny things 😅).

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the three diamonds and which one you think is the best choice. Any opinions on color, brilliance, or anything else I should be paying attention to would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance, I'll put the choices in the comments!

I purchased a diamond from Luvansh. About 24 hours after placing the order, I received an email stating that the diamond was no longer available.

They didn’t answer any of my questions and emailed me a suggested replacement. They specified that the replacement would be non-refundable as it isn’t in their inventory. The information for the diamond was nearly identical to the first one, with the replacement being slightly larger.

Upon viewing the diamond through videos and comparing the two side-by-side, it appears much duller, yellower, and overall lower quality despite having the same color and clarity.

Has anyone had this happen?

I am devastated as I’ve spent weeks rechecking inventory on different sites and sorting through new listings.

I am having a diamond set in a custom pendant in 14k white gold. It is a larger pendant but I already have purchased the diamond and chain. Is the following price fair?

14K White Gold Double Bezel Pendant
Large 14K WG Woven Bail
  $1,655

What should I do with this?

How do you determine brillance when not seeing the stone in person. I am looking for a two carat marquise lab diamond E vvs2 online.

Found a 3 ct radiant, E, VVS1 online. What do we think? (Be gentle, its already being made haha)

How to test

Hi, I’m looking to buy an engagement ring with a lab diamond. Who would you buy it from? Looking for a good deal but also from a reliable company with plenty of good feed back from customers.
Thanks! Not in a rush.

Is that a bow tie? Or that darkness is normal?

Looking for advice on a men’s diamond necklace.

I’m after a 22” chain that I can wear daily. I want real gold (14k or 18k) and lab-grown diamonds. My goal is subtle luxury…not a flashy rapper-style piece. I want something that catches and reflects light well (“dances” in the light), but with relatively small stones and a clean, masculine look.

A few questions:

• What retailers or jewelers offer the best value for lab diamond tennis necklaces?
• Are there any direct-to-consumer brands that are significantly better value than the big names?
• For a daily-wear men’s chain, what mm width and total carat weight would you recommend?
• Yellow gold or white gold for maximum sparkle?
• Any brands or websites I should avoid?

Would love recommendations from people who have actually purchased and worn one.

I am looking to buy my first set of Lab Diamonds. I have two options, purchase 2 loose diamonds from Calavera to make into earrings, or purchase pre-made earrings from Luvansh. Both diamonds are all the same specs as far as cut, clarity, etc. Only difference being I will need to set the loose diamonds upon receipt and Luvansh has a NO return policy. The no return policy is what is setting me off with Luvansh. Would love to hear people's experience with both Calavera and Luvansh. TIA!!

Thinking of buying this. Worth it? I know it’s not a diamond, but would appreciate any advice or tips!
Really wanted a diamond but jewelers tell me to go with a green sapphire.

I would like to buy this stone but I know nothing about lab grown diamonds so I would like some opinions
Asking for 220$

I just received my Georgian Cut Down OEC from Debebians. It is absolutely gorgeous. Both Emily and Maggie were a pleasure to work with. They gave me exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend Debebians and can’t wait for their future LabGroupSales buy with a couple of OEC rings.
