been loving finding new jewellery related subreddits lol. thought i’d share here too. my husband just upgraded my ring for our 10th year, it’s a 2.14 carat lab diamond from rare carat, and it’s such a stunner

Hello everyone, so glad to have found this community! My husband just recently upgraded my ring for our anniversary, and I’m having trouble deciding which wedding band looks best. I would like to solder whichever I end up choosing because the setting is low enough to scrape against the diamonds in all options. I thought I would want my chunky anniversary band with it, but I’m not sure it works the way I thought it would. It’s between that, and a slightly thinner diamond band. Extra pic of the thinner one with a curved ring added for fun lol. Please let me know your opinions, I feel stuck about which to go with.

Hello everyone, I wanted to come back with a review of my experience after I received so many helpful comments on my previous post when I was asking about a ring in my budget for a wedding anniversary upgrade.

I took the advice and went through Aureline to find a diamond to price match with Rare Carat. They told me that when price matching a stone, they couldn’t also apply the discount that was currently available for the setting, but after I said I would purchase through Aureline instead, they spoke with a manager and got the discount and price match all approved.

I placed the order on 4/14, they received the diamond a few days later, and then the following week they had it “in the work shop” according the order tracking. A week after that on 4/28, I got the shipping email. Originally the shipping time frame was 4/30-5/4. Shipping was delayed by a day, but I was able to pick it up today, and I am extremely happy with it.

I have a 2.14ct lab diamond, color H, VS1, in a 6 prong tulip setting with a 2mm pave band. The diamond is gorgeous, the setting is great, and I got it for a great price. My only regret is I didn’t try doing it through Rare Carat sooner, I had been purchasing my jewellery though another retailer that is higher priced, and kept getting what I didn’t really want because I couldn’t bring myself to spend so much on a diamond I actually wanted.
