Experience with Leibish

[Autumn in New England]

Hello all,

I'm almost always over in the Colored Stones forum, but I wanted to mention a really positive experience I had with Leibish. I don't usually do this, but my rep truly went above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. This wasn't a large purchase either (1.01ctw. emerald-cut fancy intense yellow pair for a 3-stone ring), but I was treated as if I just dropped $100k. The presentation and packaging is likewise first rate. If you ever need anything from Leibish, please contact Sandy Zerbib via email at [email protected]. She worked so diligently to make me happy... she sincerely deserves this rave review.

Wow!
What fantastic Yellow Emerald cuts!!!!!
Can you reveal some specs?

And over the years I also have been thrilled with Leibish.

They’re gorgeous!! Can’t wait to see what you do with them!!!

 

[Autumn in New England]

Thank you both! So they're 1.01ctw. and around 4.8 x 3.8mm. One is VVS2 and the other is SI1. It was important that they didn't have fluorescence (especially blue), because I noticed in direct sunlight that yellow diamonds can dull out.

Are these for your periwinkle?!

They are beautiful. I’ve been meaning to give Leibish a try - when I win the lottery

Thanks so much! Folks in RT have such incredible diamond collections... I was sort of bashful to share my wee stones.

Aww thank you! I was hesitant to buy emerald-cut stones at first, because you lose face up real estate, and step cuts aren't as brilliant. But these guys sparkle wildly in person. Moral of the story, do not be afraid of step-cut FCDs!

Ahh I love that you thought to ask! Actually, I have tentatively decided on pairing the sapphire in a toi et moi with a soft peachy-orange elbaite I already own. When I put all of the possible color choices next to the sapphire, the orange brought out the best in the periwinkle, hands down. I'm still not 100% on this decision, as I have time to browse a bit more, but that's where I'm leaning. These two yellow diamonds are going in a 3-stone ring with my emerald-cut royal purple garnet! You guys were all so helpful in my "vote" thread - the comments really focused my direction.

@Autumn in New England -

Thank you smooch for this review. I look at their website a lot, and have often wondered how it would be, working with them.

And your diamonds are stunning! Congratulations on a good experience and a great purchase!

ETA....and did somebody say...three stone??

 

[Autumn in New England]

Thank you, everyone! I'm sort of excited for this project now.
