since I heared lot of Recommendation of Singend Pieces.
I am thinking to get Signed Pieces Eternity band.( total about 1 ct)
I 've never had buy Jewelry via Internet.so I am thinking how much sparkle Signed Pieces's F-G color and VVS-VS clarity.

I went to take look Eternity ring which total 1ct and F-G color and VVS-VS clarity ( it was little more than $3000 it was very sparkle) at Tiffany today

I also went to couple shop ,
one shiop ( shop A) had H color SI class,was about $2700 ( was not spakle like Tifanny at all)

then went to another shop( shop B). they had Fcolor and VVS-VS clarity was very sprkle like Tiffany.( it was about $3000.)

Tiffany and shop B ,since the color and clarity is same as Signed Pieces.
can I Expect the Singned Pices is almost same sparkel as Tiffany and shop B?

I told to my husband about Singend Pieces price which about $1500 RAPHAEL SETTING is way low price

also lot of people happy with it
but he dosen't belive it's the much sparklle ...he think too good to be truth....




please let me know your opinion

Signedpieces says that all their diamonds are either Ideal or Preminum cut.

I personally went to their location in NYC and would definitely say that the rings all sparkled like crazy, including the three eternity bands I looked at.

Just my opinion of course.
 
I''ve purchased two rings from them. They are top notch. With a 30 day return policy, it''s pretty low risk to try.
 
I have a beautiful shared prong diamond erternity band from signed pieces that is 3.38 tcw. The stones are ideal cuts and it sparkles like crazy. Their prices are extremely competitive as they do a huge volume of business and if you are not satisfied for any reason they offer a full 30 day money back guarantee. I also bought a pair of diamond studs from them and am thrilled.

Color and clarity is not what impacts sparkle at this level of quality. Cut does. And... jewelry store lights do too, and Tiffany has great lights. (Not Tiffany bashing here... most good jewelry stores have the bright halogens, which make everything sparkle. ) Maybe you went to one that didn''t have the great lights.

As Noobie says, Signed Pieces has a stellar reputation, and a 30 day return policy, so there is little to no risk in checking it out, and if it isn''t what you expect, return it.
 
hi!! everybody
thank you very much for all of your help,
I love Jewelry but I don''t have much knowlege about Diamond grade.
usual I buy from big name Jewelrer for trust ,however after I got know this form
I realized there is many nice shop around and price is sounds low than what I usual pay
so I thought I should not over pay for the name any more.
thank you so much again for your post

Good luck and let us know what you decided to buy. No use in paying a premium for the Tiffany brand or any other when you have the knowledge that PS gives you. Please post a picture once you''ve made your purchase!!!

i''d go with the Facets one (non-Raphael) i think they are both beautiful, so just go for the less expensive

now I am thinking which one I shold go for
RAPHAEL

or FACETS.....
http://www.signedpieces.com/item.cfm?item_id=990

Ummmmmm.....can''t make the

Decision
Personally I prefer the Facets one, and not just because it''s cheaper, I just like it better - I find the metal in it less noticeable which I like. It''s more a diamond band with metal holding the stones together, than a metal band studded with diamonds. Chances are they probably don''t look that different but that''s how I see them. Plus why pay more for the Raphael one if you are undecided?

Good luck, can''t wait to see pics!

Hi, Stretch,
I have been eyeballing the channel set eternity bands on Facets website for a while. I wonder which one sparkles more: the round channel set or the princess channel set? I have always had rounds, never other shapes yet. So I think it''d be fun to have channel set princess. But I don''t know which one will look better. I am planning on getting a skinny band like 2.5mm. I guess from a few feet away one can not tell the shape of the stones for that size. From your visit to the store, do you remember which one has more sparkes? Thank you.
 
Hi Sparkle Dreamer,

Well, I did look at both rounds and princess cuts in a shared prong ring...And I have to say, I believe they both sparkled like crazy!! But, I should mention that rounds technically should be a bit more sparkly due to their brillant cut. But like I said, those princess stones were sparkling their little hearts out! I am personally going with the princess stones because a) it looked best with my e-ring and b) I just really liked the look of the princess cut stones in the shared prong ring. But if you are going to get a channel set, then the "outline" of the ring will be the same regardless of the stone used. I think that is why I personally would have gone with the princess over the round regardless of my e-ring setting...the princess just looked nice and uniform next to my e-ring, leaving absolutely no gaps at all....

Hmmmm....I''ll stop rambling now!!
 
I have a 1.61ct princess channel set eternity band and I can say it is definitely a top notch band as far as the quality of the diamonds and the setting itself. I went to my local jewe;er the other day and she hit the floor when I told her how much I paid for it. They were selling eternity band of 1ct for the same price.

The princess diamonds sparkle like crazy but it seems like a different sparkle than my round 5 stone band -- and my rounds aren''t even ideal cut. The princesses have more sparkles of white light where my round give off more colored light.

I am however thinking about exchanging it for a Facets round prong set eternity band b/c my solitaire is a round. I''m still undecided though.

I was a little leary buying from them at first but my experience with them was very good. I would highly recommend them.

Signed Pieces also re-sells branded items such as Tiffany, Cartier, Bulgari etc...so not only do they have amazing rings at great prices from what we have heard, they offer an option that you cannot readily find elsewhere, branded normally very marked-up items at lower prices.

I have gotten a few quotes from them re: custom work and find them to be very competitive. From what people have said re: their rings and melee in the rings, it sounds very good.

Lastly, I have well-cut melee in my e-ring and a cut above melee in my w-ring and to be very honest I can''t see a difference...the stones are so small. So if the SP melee is pretty well-cut, all you will see is sparkle. I am not surprised that one of the stores you visited didn''t have a sparkly ring. Alot of what is out there is crap depending on where you shop.

So don''t let the lower SP prices put you off! Once you see how great a well-cut NON-BRANDED ring can....I bet you and your hubby won''t be shopping at Tiffany and Harry Winston as much. Their loss!

is 30point can be big diffrence??
 
Well, actually the Raphael has less metal - as it says in the description "an open setting". You can''t see it in the link you posted but you can see the difference side by side here: http://www.signedpieces.com/raphael.cfm. In person there is not alot of difference so I agree with the others and would go with the less expensive one. As for sparkle, I''ve seen them in person at their place in NY and they are extremely sparkly!
 
I am going to order it soon!!!! and will post oic after I got it.
