So where are we buying from these days? Ever since I lost my two rings (never found), I’ve been really distanced from my jewelry activities. But we bought a beach house and since I don’t do well traveling with jewelry, I want to get a lab diamond solitaire to keep there.

I don’t want much. Least expensive is good lol as I don’t really trust myself with jewelry anymore. Losing those rings took the joy out of me.

Has anyone ordered from B2C lately? I have done business with them before and I had a good experience. They have good prices and a sale right now.

I’m open to shapes…. Been looking at rounds but might also be interested in like an 8 main cushion or an emerald cut. About 2 carats I guess. For a round, I was thinking about a tulip type solitaire setting and a round.

I’m trying to keep it around $2000 for the entire ring lol.

Thanks, yes, I think I might try again. Or at least baby steps since I need to buy some jewelry to keep at the beach house now. :cool2:
 
Welcome back! How do you feel about OECs?


If you message Fiorese via the chat and ask for more videos, they can send them via WeChat. They also quoted me a price lower than the site. When I inquired two weeks ago, they had a 2ct F VS1 with 14K setting for $1,250.

They can custom cut rough if they don’t have the size you want in stock and they will send you videos and photos for approval before setting.

I haven’t purchased from them before, but they’re priced lower for similar loose labs from Loose Grown and I would’ve pulled the trigger on a 3ct OEC if I didn’t get sidetracked by an impulse buy.

Thanks, I’ll check it out.
 
Hello, whitewave!
What shape and carat range are you looking for?
Any idea of a budget cap for just the diamond?
 
If you're still looking for something affordable, I think B2C is a solid choice. I’ve ordered from them before, and their prices are really good. You might even be able to grab a nice 2-carat solitaire within your budget, especially with their sale. For the setting, the tulip-style sounds beautiful, especially if you're going for that round shape. If you’re considering other shapes like emerald or cushion, maybe it’s worth checking out how they look in different settings, too.
 
I love B2C, six diamonds from them. Fancy cuts, my opinion shouldn't count. I've named two rings Alex and Simon.

Hey, I guess I need to figure that out lol. I think round or emerald. David at DBL has a beautiful 2.22 emerald cut. I’m thinking about that one.

Unless you for sure want an RBC, run and grab that EC from DBL!

I agree I need to decide this soon before it’s snapped up
 
Welcome back!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Might be a little dark up close for a ring.

Yeah, I didn’t catch that. I’m out of practice lol. Would make a nice pendant
 
Update. I just bought the blue lab from David At Diamonds by Lauren!!!!!
 
What is the link to the 2 carat D VS1?

but still send me this link because this happens all the time— I buy stuff for the beach house and then I end up keeping it at my main house because I love it too much. Lol.
 
Oh yay! That’s such a stunning color. Can’t wait to see it on you!

Thanks. And yes, I visited David at his office in 2019 and his settings are phenomenal— such excellent quality. I have no doubt this is an amazing ring.
