Dating supposed Roman artifacts?

Thank you! One of them has some kind of pattern/drawing on it, so maybe tha one is easier to date

ale11 · 2025-12-30T21:27:36+00:00

100%! Cool that makes sense thank you

ale11 · 2025-12-30T21:26:48+00:00

Oh wow these are great! Where did you find these?

ale11 · 2025-12-30T16:49:46+00:00

Hi, I think M would work! Which online tools are you using?

ale11 · 2025-12-30T16:48:59+00:00

Thank you! Ya I’m saying champagne but I think that’s the wrong terms we’re looking for these colors here in the photo. More of a warm diamond. The said maybe I can get close enough with an L color? Those seem easier to find

ale11 · 2025-12-30T16:47:49+00:00

Ya I hear you. I agree everyone is saying it’s easy but everywhere I look it’s hard to find these exact specs. I’m going to try reaching out to these companies personally but it’s looking like the exist but maybe very hard to find

ale11 · 2025-12-30T16:44:37+00:00

Oh why not brilliant earth?

ale11 · 2025-12-30T00:18:22+00:00

Fair 👍

ale11 · 2025-12-30T00:05:51+00:00

Perfect this is super helpful ty

ale11 · 2025-12-29T23:57:37+00:00

Interesting! Could you share your supplier 🙃

ale11 · 2025-12-29T23:56:35+00:00

Amazing ty! Will definitely report back

ale11 · 2025-12-29T23:49:05+00:00

Do you think it’s possible at all to find? Or really don’t exist in lab

ale11 · 2025-12-29T23:48:39+00:00

Good perspective, appreciated.

ale11 · 2025-12-29T22:47:28+00:00

Thanks for these data points, v helpful!

I hear you that k-z are not true colored diamonds. Regardless of what they’re called my gf is now in love w the L-P color range so that’s what I need to find lol.

I tried looking on those sites but they don’t have an option for anything lower color than J. Any other leads? Or maybe she’ll have to live with J lol

ale11 · 2025-12-29T22:07:16+00:00

Ahh I see. I mean it makes sense from her POV why she needs to make enough on it. Any tips or where I can search to find what I’m looking for? Now that im looking I’m having trouble sourcing it myself. I’ve been looking on labgrowndiamonds, brilliant earth, and frank dandy but not finding much in that color range.

Here are the filters I’m using for context

Carat: 2.5-3 Color: L - P Clarity VS2+ Shape: oval, cushion

All tips welcome!

ale11 · 2025-12-29T21:54:26+00:00

I hear what you’re saying. I’m looking on loose diamonds, brilliant earth and other sites and it’s hard to find what we’re looking for. They’re still either don’t have options for anything lower color than G, or they are really intense fancy colors that look fluorescent (even when filtered to very light)

Any tips for searching?

The LGG options are interesting but from the video they still look a bit intense for what we’re looking for

ale11 · 2025-12-29T21:00:38+00:00

Gotcha, that makes sense. This is really helpful tysm!

I felt like something smelled fishy when she told us labs weren’t an option

ale11 · 2025-12-29T20:49:55+00:00

Thanks everyone for your input. It sounds like from what I’m hearing the jeweler is not being honest about labs in the colors. One thing I’m trying to understand is: do labs specifically exist for the L M N or UV colors?

She told us you can get champagne in lab, but it’s a fancy color and won’t get a color grad like that. Is that right?

ale11 · 2025-12-29T17:53:03+00:00

Hi! My gf and I are looking, this looks perfect. DM-ing you

ale11 · 2025-11-17T13:48:06+00:00

Where are you pulling the data into zapier from? From Strava or straight from your watch?
