Well,

Thank you to everyone on the forum for helping me so far; I am pretty convinced now what sort of stone to go for and have learnt a lot.

The final decision I need to make is between James Allen and Whiteflash. I am going for the classic Tiffany so no need to speak to GOG for any of their other kinds.

Does anyone have any anecdotal evidence as to which are better made?

Thanks!

(I am getting excited now as I am closing in a decision!)

Well, just my 2 cents is that WF has a lifetime upgrade policy and that is why I went w/them and so does GOG, ERD and a few others. I am not sure about James Allen so you might want to check into that too. Hope that helps

Good point - lots of this is pointing to WF.

Only I seem to slightly prefer the Tiffany style from james Allen, thoug this is hard to tell from the pics...

Anyone seem these tiffany styles close up?

Michel, where are you planning to get the center stone from? I would recommend using the same vendor for the setting, if at all possible.

FYI - If you''re looking at Tiffany replicas, there is also the Superbcert Tiffany which many people say looks almost like the real deal.

Thanks for the link!

They look good, and have some nice stones too.

Only I am veering toward WF because they''ve been so good to me.

Which of their two tiffany lookalikes is the most like the tiffany setting? Does anyone know?

James allen has changed it''s upgrade policy. I think it''s now for life on their in-house stones but you have to purchase something 2x as much. However, check to make sure this is the case with someone over at JA.

I personally would purchase from any of them, they are all awesome!

I am posting the link. link This is the one I''ve heard discussed is the revised setting to more closely resemble the Tiffany.
