So, as we don’t have a sticky detailing potential vendors of MMDs / LGDs, I thought I’d make a thread
In terms of ‘Pricescope-recommended’ (i.e. ‘safe’ sellers) I think the following would be correct?
Brilliant Earth (BE)
https://www.brilliantearth.com/lab-diamonds-search/
Large range.
D.NEA
https://d.neadiamonds.com/lab-created-diamonds/
Quite a large range but more in smaller sizes. Some colours but mostly yellows.
@EEFranklin is the CEO.
Lightbox (LB)
http://lightboxjewelry.com/
https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/gia-examines-2-lightbox-de-beers-diamonds.246817/
$800/ct pricing. MRB + Princess. White, pink and blue. Limited stock that goes quickly in larger sizes. Only sold in Sterling Silver settings (I think).
August Vintage (AV)
https://www.augustvintageinc.com/collections/laboratory-grown-diamonds
Patented(?) Vintage cuts. Custom-cut stones. @Rhino at your service
Good Old Gold (GOG)
https://www.goodoldgold.com/lab_grown_diamonds
Mostly MRBs and Ovals. Fair range. Rhino used to work there.
I have also seen the following mentioned but I’m not sure if anyone has bought from them:
Takara
https://betterthandiamond.com/categories/Takara-Lab-Grown-Diamonds/
H&A / AGS000 Rounds. Blue and Pink Rounds. Limited sizes/stock.
Joseph Shubach
http://shopping.schubachstore.com/Diamonds-and-Gemstones
https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/custom-cut-old-cuts-from-joseph-schubach.247562/
Vintage cuts. Unusual cuts. Custom-cut stones. May not sell loose stones?
Mohr Creations
https://mohrcreations.jewelershowcase.com/lab-grown-diamonds/
Seem to have the same inventory list as Good Old Gold (so presumably virtual inventory) but at higher prices.
In addition to the above, @MelloYello8 also found/has mentioned some other sellers:
https://www.pricescope.com/communit...-best-price-on-a-1-carat.242966/#post-4396028
https://www.gemifique.com/pages/our-diamonds
I-J SI2-VS1 only. Doesn’t sell loose stones.
https://www.1215diamonds.com/
I can’t get the search tool to work (or no inventory is on the website). States a 10% restocking fee if loose diamonds are returned.
https://www.25karats.com/lab-diamonds-search
Fairly large range of MRBs. Search tool is failing for me but does have other shapes. No pictures or videos. Not sure about cut quality – lots of MRBs with 60%+ tables.
https://www.yadavjewelry.com/
Quite a large range of MRBs but limited other shapes. Not many with pictures/videos. Cut quality needs assessing for each stone.
https://www.miadonna.com/
I can’t get any inventory list to come up but it looks like they do a range of different cuts, including Hexagon:
https://www.miadonna.com/blogs/news/7-new-lab-grown-diamond-cuts
https://renaissancediamonds.com/
Quite a range of colours across MRBs and fancy shapes. I think prices might be high compared to other options?
Am I missing any?
I know that Robbins Bros has been mentioned as selling MMDs, but I thought we’d want to focus on good value offerings, rather than price-hiked B&M stores lol
Please add to the list or comment as necessary!
