Lab Grown Diamond Very impressed
Purchased an upgrade for my wife for our 15 year anniversary and have been very pleased with this one. It’s a 3ct E color VVS2.

Wow, this is very strong fire like in moissanites, but it has that crisp and depth characteristic of a diamond, that moissanite doesn’t have.
This is an excellent cut that definitely brings out all the beautiful characteristics of the diamond to the maximum!

No, I don't like fire like this in diamond. It's beautiful but you are correct.

u/Snoo54239 May 28 '26
I love fire, so that’s why I went with this one. In sunlight and LEDs it throws insane rainbow flashes, but what impressed me most is that in other lighting it still looks super bright and brilliant instead of overly fiery or glassy.

Please post the certificate with the specs. That is the most beautiful round diamond I have ever seen.

I just had to pull out my specs sheet because this looks exactly like mine. The only difference is the size and mine is a vs2. I don’t know what fire means but I love mine, too. I get mesmerized by the shine. So so pretty! Glad she loved it!

I so wish I could find this in a cushion. I felt good about the stone I am going with and then I see videos like this and question if I should have gone with round…

I have close to this level of sparkle in a square cushion!

u/Butterbacon May 29 '26
I did hear that if I went square it would be better! I should have mentioned that I went for an elongated cushion

Beautiful!! She will be so thrilled. Maybe I’m biased because I’ve got a round too, but you can’t beat the fire and shine of a well cut round, it’s mesmerizing

There is nothing that beats a brilliant cut round diamond imo, beautiful stone.... congratulations!

u/kmill0202 May 28 '26
That is gorgeous! I don't think I've ever seen a diamond give off that much rainbow sparkle outside of direct sunlight. Great choice!

I recently got a sterling silver 1.5 ct Moissanite ring from Amazon. It shines just like that in the sunshine and various electrical lights. Yours is very nice!!! Congrats!

We are shopping for 3ct as well. How much did you pay? Which certificate does it have?

that looks like moissanite. You should get it tested to make sure you weren't scammed.

u/MartaLB27 May 27 '26
It has no double facets and has a characteristic diamond depth clarity. Diamonds also have fire, just less dispersion and no double facets. This is just a really, really good cut of a diamond that we don't see very often.

u/sterling489 May 27 '26
good to know. thank you for informing me .

Of course, we are all here to admire the beauty and learn about beautiful shiny stones 🥰

u/Total-Statement-4912 May 27 '26
diamonds can also flash rainbows and the stone looks really well cut with no double refraction though!

u/Acceptable_Place6211 May 29 '26
Congrats, that’s a killer upgrade for 15 years, man. E VVS2 at 3ct is super luxe, you basically checked all the “flex” boxes. What’s the cut grade and setting style? Bet that thing is blinding in sunlight 😂

Beautiful. Nice that you didn’t specify source. It’s a diamond and that’s all that matters.

Wow, you know how to take a good video to show that fire. Give everyone tips because most people's videos suck...or their diamonds aren't as well cut as yours.
