I learned so much from this subreddit I thought I’d return and leave a review of my experience to help future shoppers! When I first got engaged 10 years ago ago, we didn’t know about lab diamonds. My original ring is from James Allen, but it had to be cut off due to a horrible swelling event over the summer 😩 My husband and I recently found out about lab diamonds and thought this was the best decision for us. I could get a larger, new ring, at a fraction of the cost of what he paid the first time...

12/18 Reached out to Sonia as well as many other vendors to see about a lab grown diamond. Wanted between 2-2.5 carats initially but that size was hard to come by so I said I could go bigger if necessary. A few vendors presented me with reasonably priced options (one in particular almost too good to pass up) but Sonia showed me 2 absolutely stunning diamonds, a 2.92E VS1 and 3.17ct G VS1. After some deliberation and a bit of negotiation, we settled on a price and that I would go for the 2.92. Sonia made the invoice up for...

Received my 3.29ct OMC from Sonia at Fiorese. She was a pleasure to deal with and was very patient with my many questions as this is my first LGD. Timelines were as stated, 3 days for CAD, 10 days for making. My ring size is 4.75 so was a bit nervous about how big I went but am stoked with the outcome! https://www.reddit.com/r/labdiamond/comments/17sf738/shopped_the_fiorese_sale/

Huge thanks to u/ashpaynton and Matthew at Fiorese!!! I have always been bothered by the bowtie on my pear diamond. Since then I've worked with 3 different diamond selecting services, trying to find a pear with no bowtie, and never succeeded. Eventually I came to realize I not only dislike the darkness of the bowtie, I also dislike the chunkiness of the facets in the middle of a pear. Finally, I discovered the crushed ice cut design! This design is not only impervious to the bowtie effect, but it's pure crushed ice sparkle from top to bottom. I know this design is...

This is a 2.10 CT OMC cushion cut in a chunky bezel. Love it! It looks like gummy candy to me. Can’t wait to wear it. https://www.reddit.com/r/labdiamond/comments/15oicwg/new_ring_from_fiorese/
