2-carat round diamond with two 1.5-carat eternity bands

[Chelsea Palmer]

Hello, thank you for reading my post. I have been communicating with Dan from Concierge Diamonds, and I really have faith in him. He has been unbelievably helpful. I am considering trading my mined diamond for a 2-carat LGD and two 1.5-carat eternity bands. (I like the look of two eternity bands topped by a diamond solitaire.). I’m sure it’s a longshot, but does anybody have this combo? Because I’m interested in seeing the proportions of the two eternity bands in 1.5 carats with a
2 -carat solitaire. Thank you again!

The price of lab diamonds has dropped considerably so I would just urge you to be careful in the value of what you are trading vs. the cost of what you would be getting in return.
I don't have pictures nor can I think of anyone off of the top of my head with this particular look. Are you thinking of two shared prong eternities? Could be a pretty look but again, I would just caution that in the case of two shared prong eternities worn together, there is a chance of the girdles rubbing together and damaging each other. If you are thinking of bezel set or channel set without exposed girdles, you could negate the risk.

This is the style I LOVE, but not sure if the stones are secure in this setting: https://www.ritani.com/products/flo...ty-ring-carat-2-00-metal-platinum-ring-size-6

Also, on Concierge DIamonds' website they list additional info such as BGD (brown, gray, milky) and treatment, whereas Luvansh does not appear to include this info. So does that mean with Luvansh I run the risk of purchasing a diamond that looks great per the IGI grading report, but could be brown/gray/milky, or treated (whatever "treated" means)? All the Concierge Diamonds' LGDs I viewed so far indicate no brown/gray/milky appearance and no treatment. Thank you!

The Ritani ring looks very pretty and it looks as if there is one prong between each stone to help secure them as well. I also can’t tell if the girdles of each diamond are exposed from the picture. Not sure how the rounded diamonds would sit with two stacked. Would there be a gap in between the diamonds as the two bands would not sit flush? Not trying to discourage you but rather ask the questions before purchase. Also not sure about the pricing either.
There is a lab grown sub forum here on Pricescope. There are very knowledgeable folks over there that could advise you about all things lab grown. I would suggest you hit the concern button on your first post and ask mods to move this thread over there. You will get much more detailed information on the diamonds you are considering for purchase. There are many things to take into consideration and you are wise to seek advice BEFORE you purchase. All the best to you!

Please don’t trade your natural diamond for a lab. You’ll be losing a lot of money doing that! Labs are only worth pennies on the dollar, the mark up is huge and prices continues to drop. Not a wise choice.
ETA. I see you have other threads on this topic

I won’t be trading my natural diamond. I’m going to purchase a lab grown diamond and keep my natural one. But as I’ve mentioned before, I’m wondering how much value my natural diamond will keep as far as trade-in value. I’m all on board for lab grown diamonds, and if these had been around when I got engaged 22 years ago, I would certainly have bought a lab grown diamond as opposed to a natural diamond, and never have given it a second thought. Hopefully everybody else feels the same way, because why would someone spend so much money for a natural diamond when you could get a comparable lab grown one for thousands and thousands of dollars less? Nothing about the fact that a natural diamond comes from the Earth has any significance to me whatsoever, and I struggle to understand why anybody would feel that is an important factor. So I’m actually thinking as far as my natural diamond, if I can get anything monetarily for it now, why wouldn’t I? Because I really do think the industry is going to shift dramatically towards lab grown diamonds, and the only people who will still purchase natural diamonds are millionaires, billionaires, and trillionaires, because they have a misguided notion that there’s a difference between the two. Although if I was a millionaire, I still would purchase a lab grown diamond over a natural diamond any day of the week. Millionaires are smart with their money.
