Effy flower ring...

[RockHugger]

Hubby wants to buy this for me for x mas. I am wondering if anyone knows if there are durability issues with it or anything I should know about. I have never purchased effy before and don't want him to spend money in something that isn't worth it, kwim? By the way, the store has this ring about 60% off, so don't use the store price.

In general, Effy has always produced quality jewelry, sold only at upscale retailers. Just like a lot of other jewelry manufacturers, Effy has their own website. You'll find that ring here (at a buy direct discount):

They also have a customer service phone number (on the top of their page), so you can speak to someone from the company and ask about diamond quality. I know when they were selling on Value Vision/Shop NBC, their diamond quality was usually H/I, SI1/SI2 but you might want to check that to be sure that it's what they're still using.

The store price is 1k cheaper then the effy websites 'direct discount' so I'll stick with buying from the store lol.

I loped the diamonds and they looked si quality. No cloudy chunks or anything. My only concern with pave rings is the whole popping diamond thing. That's why I was wondering about quality of these.

Hi RH,
I have a wonderful emerald pendant from Effy. It's a very nice quality emerald set in a diamond halo surround. I enjoy my necklace and would definitely buy from the company again.

I don't know about durability, but it's very pretty!
