Hi Kim,

I tried a pair of 3ctw earrings stud at my local jewelry store. Would you please find me a pair of stones? My tennis bracelet is GH color. Should I choose a similar or higher color for the stud? My budget will be between $2000-$2500.

Thanks,

Hi jz112896! I think earrings and bracelets are worn far enough away from each other that a few color grades difference should be okay. Let me know when you're online and ready to put the diamonds on hold. I found a beautiful pair for you.

These are both very poorly cut. Did you not like the pair I posted?
Maybe I will go down in size? I want to wear it daily. How about around a 2.5 ctw pair? Also, will can I find the setting? I don’t see that on that website.

Okay, I was confused because the first pair you posted was 3.2ctw.

For the setting, I think you need to call or chat for them to put together a custom order with your desired diamonds and setting, like this one.


Here's a 2.5ctw pair. If you like them, be sure to put them on hold so you don't lose out on them.

Thank you. I will talk to them tomorrow. Probably I will go with that 2.5 ctw pair.

Hi Kim, I just purchased this 2.5 ctw pair of stones today. I will post some pics here after I receive them. Hopefully, they will look white and crispy.

Fantastic, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on them after they arrive!

Hi Kim, they sold out one of the stone. They showed me another one. Can you take a look at it for me? If you think it’s ok, then I will replace my order again.

Oh no. This is not cut well. First off, the crown angle is way too shallow. We aim for 34 to 35.

I agree with 0515vision—stay away from the stone they recommended.

I have an alternative when you're online and ready to purchase it. I don't want someone else to snatch it from you.

Hi Kim, I just received my pair yesterday, and I love it. They look clean and crispy. However, the lead time is too long. It takes almost a month as they manufacture and ship it over from India. They also mismatched the lock pieces. I ordered 18k WG, but I received 14k WG instead. I highly recommend ppl to buy and mount their stone at a local jewelry store. 1986873a5b9830864d109847b0349d1e.jpeg

Oh thanks for the follow up! So glad they're sparkly - @Kim N is such a superhero when it comes to picking these.

Thanks for letting us know about the mix-ups. Are they crediting you at all? Earring settings are straightforward enough that having them done locally seems like a great idea.

Again, congrats!! :kiss2:

I'm glad the diamonds are beautiful!

Sorry to hear they made mistakes on the settings—that's good advice to buy the setting locally.
