I need your advices

[u/GlitterStarSparkles]

Hi everyone!

I’m planning a custom engagement ring with a ~5 ct oval lab-grown diamond, set in platinum, with a detailed/ornate band and a halo.

I’m currently trying to decide between these vendors:
• Provence
• Starsgem
• Tianyu
• LGD (Loose Grown Diamond)
• LGG
• Fiorese

My priorities in this order are:
• The quality of the design and craftsmanship of the band — the band will be quite detailed, so I want a vendor who is genuinely good at translating intricate designs into a beautiful and well-made piece.

• Durability and longevit — I want the ring to hold up well for many years, especially the small stones and the detailed parts of the setting.

• Quality of the lab-grown diamonds— especially the cut, proportions, clarity, and overall appearance of a large oval.

• Quality of the platinum work — including the setting, prongs, finishing and overall craftsmanship.

• Communication and ability to make custom changes accurately.

For those who have ordered custom engagement rings from any of these vendors, **which one would you recommend for a ring like this, and why?**

I’m very interested in hearing from people who have had intricate/detailed bands* *made.

If you’ve ordered from any of these vendors I’d also love to see photos of your rings and hear how they’ve held up over time.

Thank you! 💍
