I am considering 2 matching Lab diamonds for a dangle earring project. It would have to be custom. But I'm just starting to look at Lab stones and it's all soooo confusing. I see prices very affordable and then I see outrageous prices. Where to buy, how to research and compare? I'm willing to look at and consider top cut stones - but how do I know what I'm getting? I see mentions of blue, striations and haze here ... how do I avoid that?
This project would require 2 matching RB or possible cushion cut stones, maybe 2cts each. Each earring would also require a small RB diamond, maybe around .50ct.
Is it difficult to find 2 stones, like the larger 2ct stones that match very well? Do they have to be custom/grown? Maybe consider the JannPaul stones? I have no idea how much those cost, I can't seem to get much info from their website.
I have a long way to go before I have enough education on these stones.
Where do I start?
