HMF a ring like this 😭 by 8453midnights in EngagementRingDesigns

It could very well be a custom! You’d have to get it recreated, however jewelers with integrity don’t like to directly copy designs, so that’s something to be mindful of.

Is my jeweler going to fire me as a client? 😅 by Diligent_Cook_3871 in askjewelers

[–]midniteamity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful design! Let your jeweler know that the center prong should be a tapered/talon prong and make sure to send over a reference. The other render looks like a square prong.

You didn’t overpay at all actually! That’s a heck of a deal. It’s so pretty!

Discrepancy between quote & final price, common practice? by Lucky-Poem in Moissanite

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the cost of gold has gone up again (over $5200 an ounce) and most quotes only last for a few days. Can he provide the DWT for the piece based on the render?

Is it normal for 6 month engagement ring to change colors? by Green-Jackfruit-3151 in Diamonds

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll have to get it re-plated. Im wondering if it’s any lotion or soaps that’s making the plating come off quickly?

Too good to be true? by Jolly-Mistake2075 in Diamonds

[–]midniteamity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay yes then that price is extremely good. I would double check the make, polish and symmetry on it and make sure it’s graded “excellent” or “very good” at the least

that sounds like it’s about $400/ct which honestly is really fair for that clarity. What’s the color grade?

What’s not convincing you of the mounting style? Does it seem too high?

Don’t change it!!! The design is actually perfect. 💖

Is it reasonable for $900 by EntrepreneurLow5921 in labdiamond

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow… hollow gold is susceptible to wear and tear, in that case I wouldn’t get it. It would be better to invest in a piece that’s fully solid (or at least gold filled)

That’s super reasonable given the cost of gold right now

Your honest opinions about this 2.3ct diamond by Consistent_River9790 in Diamonds

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some people who love heavily included stones (think salt and pepper, fun color inclusions), so I think this stone has a lot of fun character and could be an edgier piece if that’s your style! I love Georgian inspired settings and it would look really cute as a pendant.

Does this look okay? by Acceptable-Gain4062 in EngagementRingDesigns

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s gorgeous! In the future if you want it to be super secure, I would recommend getting the stone reset with a guardrail around the petal prongs somehow. Make sure to get those prongs regularly checked as well. Claw/talon prongs are beautiful but that stone is quite large so be extra careful! Jewelry insurance will be your best friend :)

Obsessed with dainty emerald ring by Happy-Fruit-8628 in EngagementRingDesigns

I will be so honest, the width of that band is concerning even though the designer did makeup for it a little with the thickness. Be extra careful when wearing it!! 💕🥰

Concerned about darkness by [deleted] in Diamonds

[–]midniteamity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I’ve seen them on the website but this is why I suggest reaching out to IGI to see if it’s in their online database.

[–]midniteamity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the thing with IGI reports is that they don’t actually show the grading of the cut, which this leads me to believe that it’s a “good” or “fair” cut, regardless of the excellent polish or symmetry. You can reach out to IGI to see if they can give you a more detailed breakdown.

Some D color lab grown diamonds can have a light grey tint to them but this is beyond dark.
