I am very undecided but have wanted a lab diamond hoop for a long time
I have settled on 2 choices
1) lab diamond hoop from Etsy khamkar diamonds

2) my second choice is this one from Elizabeth jewellery inc

I am struggling because while i love the design from khamkar - and I plan to wear it daily I wonder if the stones will be less secure when compared to the one on Elizabeth - this has a lock as well and setting seems nice - I don’t think the stone will fall off ..
also is it a better value than the one in Etsy ? I am confused - also probably heavier .
What do others think ?
 

The stones in the Elizabeth setting are double the weight of the Khamkar ones - so the stones are a fair bit bigger, the hoop will be bigger, and it's a different look.

As far as the setting itself goes I much prefer the Khamkar one because the baskets are open. I did mention this when I originally posted my pair - in the photos on the listing it shows a U prong setting but in reality (and in the CADs I was provided) there is a bar under the girdle. The settings are very secure - I have worn the for over a month at a time without removing them at all and no concerns.
 
Not to highjack, but @pancake did you purchase the pair linked above? TY
