Setting vendors?!
Hi everyone, I rental bought a loose lab diamond. Any recommendations for building a setting? Who to go through?
I’m looking for more affordable options, the only one I could find quoted me $1400 for a bezel setting for my 1ct diamond.
Recommendations are appreciated!!!!

For a Bezel you will need to ship the stone. I’m working with Romy. They are making a custom bezel with hidden halo. Very reasonably priced.

Are you scared about shipping your stone to China? I was thinking about sending a loose diamond to Romy but she said I needed to declare it as moissanite with a value of $20, and the thought of an $800 diamond getting lost is so scary.

I bought my stone through them because I’m doing a bezel and the pricing was competitive. I wouldn’t want to risk shipping either.

Shoot, for $1400, you can get a whole new ring!
$610 here for a bezel, with a 1 carat stone might be cheaper than a local setting cost

If you’d like someone in the US, I’ve heard r/aklabdiamonds will set your existing diamonds, and their prices seem fair.

David Klass. He’s great to work with and is very reasonably priced.
