I have been looking for a pair of lab grown diamonds to have them mounted into solitaire earrings. I am searching for is 3tw (so 1.5ct per diamond) color D-E, clarity VS1-VVS2. I am really looking for sparkle and shine so have been searching for Ideal/Super Ideal, EX,EX. I have been looking since October 2023 and feel like I am overwhelmed and confused. It was recommended that I look for H&A diamonds but I haven’t been able to find a pair of similar size where one doesn’t look bigger/smaller than the other. Then I was advised to look at the StoneAlgo scores for cut - some Ideal diamonds have better scores than the H&A diamonds so that’s increased my confusion. Then I was told by a jeweler that H&A is a scam. At this point I don’t know how to proceed and would love advice or recommendations from experts. I need to know whether H&A is important for earrings; if I should downgrade on color or clarity to stay between $2000-$2400.
A few weeks ago I thought I found a great pair on Loose Grown Diamonds but they ended up not having one of them available. Here are the 2 pairs I had looked at:
1. H&A: IGI certificate 603330291 and 603330735
2. Not H&A: IGI certificate 581319308 and 581319311
Please provide recommendations or advice. I tried to use the Connect with an Expert option on Pricescope but it wouldn’t let me submit the form. Please help.
