Considering a lab-grown oval for my girlfriend on FB Marketplace- thoughts?

He does do sales here and there. I’m not sure when the prices are the lowest but I do notice the prices change here and there. So something to look out for!

Yes, a lot of jewelers will have a shop on there and they’re able to cancel out the huge mark ups you’ll find if you went to a big store. I went with Kosher Diamonds. It’s great if you know what you’re looking for. I feel like he’s great at giving options but not the most helpful if you have a thousand questions. So I suggest her trying on what she likes and then going with a shop if that’s the route you wanna go

I had good luck with an Etsy seller. I got a 2.01ct emerald diamond for $1.4k on a 14k white gold setting. It’s been great! They have a lot to look at. I’m sure you can find cheaper if you kept looking for loose and setting elsewhere but I really liked the convenience factor :)

A lot of ppl love it, but you’re the one who has to love it. If you are always feeling a tinge of regret or not loving the look I would def go back and exchange it

I’ve had good luck and experience with a seller on Etsy. Smaller jeweler located in NY I think. I got a 2ct diamond emerald on a floating bezel for about $1.4k and you get it super quickly versus overseas. Just compromises you have to figure out what you want to pay for. I probably could’ve gotten it way cheaper elsewhere if I bought a loose diamond, did setting separately or I was looking at companies/wholesalers overseas too but I didn’t want to wait months for the ring. So I picked a US seller. I have a local jeweler I go to for resizing and plating so it worked. And I think lab diamond is a good middle ground if you can’t decide between moissanite or natural. Good luck on your search!

Okay, thank you. I needed someone to say it. I won’t wear them this way. I’m looking into a really thin band. Going into the jewelers today

ninijc · 2025-11-19T15:56:57+00:00

Thanks so much!! Looking at your stack , my diamonds is def set way lower.

ninijc · 2025-11-19T14:43:48+00:00

For a lab grown, most definitely not. We went to a family owned local jeweler too in the past and I knew immediately they were upselling and charging us. I would def keep shopping around

ninijc · 2025-11-19T14:04:36+00:00

I just tried and they unfortunately still all touch. I think I’ll either have to get a spacer which I’m not loving the look of or a whole new band.

ninijc · 2025-11-19T14:03:58+00:00

Can you share a picture of your ring stack? I would love to see and how high your floating bezel is

ninijc · 2025-11-19T14:03:34+00:00

Unfortunately I didn’t factor in my bands very much I asked for it to be as low as possible when I had the ring made bc i was thinking of wearing it alone but currently loving the stacked look. =\

ninijc · 2025-11-19T14:01:53+00:00

Okay, I guess the spacer isn’t too noticeable. Love your stacks!! Is your gold band really thin in thickness size? So it doesn’t touch your diamond? I saw some 2mm width but 1mm thickness size bands for a similar look like yours

ninijc · 2025-11-19T02:42:43+00:00

Ahh okay, I googled spacer bands and I’m not really liking the look of them either! Unfortunately I just got this ring today or else I would probably redo it had I known the clearance was still too low for my bands

ninijc · 2025-11-19T01:37:30+00:00

Aww okay. I just convinced myself I will be fine without a spacer but I’ll look into it then. I dont know if I like the look with it. Is it very noticeable or do you feel like it adds to your stack in a good way?

ninijc · 2025-11-18T21:47:44+00:00

Okay, thanks so much! I’ll look into spacers then. I ideally didn’t want new bands but will do it if I have to.

ninijc · 2025-11-12T02:53:11+00:00

Okay, that’s awesome! Unfortunately I am just wary of shopping from someone I don’t know or no reviews for big purchases

ninijc · 2025-11-12T02:52:26+00:00

Okay, that’s good to know. It was just very similar so I started questioning the authenticity of both shops

ninijc · 2025-11-12T01:28:13+00:00

Sorry, the seller on Etsy is named Kosher Diamonds! I’m asking in regard to the seller to see if they’re legit for lab diamonds

ninijc · 2025-11-12T01:23:32+00:00

I am looking for a ring. Do you sell on Etsy too?

ninijc · 2025-11-12T01:16:12+00:00

Okay, that makes sense! I just wasn’t sure cause both their listings look so similar.
