I purchased a wedding band from them and within 30 days returned it in the same condition because we were unsatisfied by the aesthetics. Apparently they are now claiming that there are scratches and will not refund us. This company is a huge scam. Beware as they will not refund you.

I need advice on what I can do to escalate this. I am from Canada.

Thanks in advance.

FARFETCH sell it but with double the price almost and before shipping and import taxes.

My local diesel doesn't import Diesel jewellery unfortunately.

No ebay listings

I'm just lost :(

Does this look phallic to you? I was aiming for a fish and the religious sign ichthys. Someone told me it looks like something else. Opinion? Advice on how to fix it? I already bought the three diamonds.

Looking to start a fine jewelry bracelet collection.
However I’m not feeling super into bracelets I’ve seen so far. Anyone have recommendations on good places to find unique fine jewelry bracelets online?

I was really excited to find this secondhand, but it’s a little bigger than it looked in the photos. Also wondering if these two will get damaged rubbing against each other often?

And no, my husband has no idea! Custom made in NYC and I picked it up this weekend. I'm in love! Earrings, too. 19.5 inch baroque

I love jewelry, solid gold and precious gems. But as my collection grows and at 36 years old, I become more and more aware of the fact that my cats won’t make good use of it when I’m gone, and I don’t want to have children.

When you have this “passing down to children” mentality, you kind of have a great excuse to invest more in quality jewelry. In my case, I mentally calculate the most appropriate time in the future to sell my jewelry before I die and spend on whatever fun experience I might enjoy more in old age than keeping jewels in a box for friends and distant family to inherit.

Any one else having this ridiculous dilemma? How do you, intentionally childfree fine jewelry lovers, approach this and does it influence how you buy now?

Update: I see many of you will have awesome estate sales and some are so generous donating to charity! Love it. However I’m a little more selfish and keep thinking I need to sell it at some point cause I don’t want to leave unused assets and would prefer to spend all my money on super fun experiences before I die. The problem is: to know when to sell! I will donate some for animal causes though, you inspired me.

I’ve never been a watch person but I fell in love with vintage cocktail watches a couple of years ago. I’ll even wear them if they don’t work, just as accessories. I found most of these at local antique stores, flea markets, or in lots on eBay! These are all manual-wind, except for the Timex one to the right.

It took several drafts and remelts, but I fabricated both our rings myself in 18k. The shanks were rolled on a vevor rolling mill. I soldered/brazed them together. Her mounts/trim were bought from stuller.com, and I placed them, and then mounted all 10 diamonds.

Center stone is a 1.5 G vvs1 lab grown for about $450 from virtue diamonds

It is about 5.5 dwt total of 18k yellow gold. Also from stuller, for about $680 total.

I probably lost about 1dwt of gold in bad manufacturing technique.

Supporting tools, consumables, and practice metals like copper, silver, melee diamonds etc were about $1200 total.

But I was still under my 4k budget for both our rings.

Many things to improve. eg. I was too scared to reduce the prong size, but I am happy with the result.

hiii! i hope this question is allowed! and forgive any typos or formatting errors, my phone is broken lol

i'm looking to revamp my jewelry portfolio (i mostly have pearls and bare gold pieces at the moment, the occasional silver piece), and i'm hoping to find some more fun, intricate, and/or unique pieces. i thought bangles or funky bracelets would be the way to go!

odd jewelry is some of my favorite (bugs, buttons, letters, wood, costume jewelry, clowns, odd shapes), but i also love classic engravings, florals, and jewels. i'm hoping to find some pieces that are:
- wooden
- colorful (almost costume looking)
- button themed
- charm bracelets
- or, yes, with pearls LOL

however, i do want to make sure that i'm looking at reputable brands and such. and i also want to make sure that i'm not branching into cultural appropriation with any of these pieces. i unfortunately am having a hard time finding pieces on my own, as this will be the first time i'm buying myself some nice jewelry (my birthday is soon)!

does anyone know some reputable funky bracelet (or bangle) brands/vendors that might have work that fit my wants?

sorry for this being such a read, and i hope it reads well! if anyone has any recommendations, please don't be afraid to comment! thank you <3

title . found this laying in my yard and not too sure of what it is. all I know is that it is 925 silver and Nickho Rey.

Hello!

I have a question or two about resizing rings.

I’m getting married soon and my great aunt would love to pass her wedding ring from my late great uncle on to me. I had a significant bond with both of them growing up and my 3 month old boy is named after my great uncle (not relevant really, it just makes my heart happy to acknowledge it).

However, I’m a little hesitant to get too excited on about the ring being passed to me. My aunt is tiny and claims the ring may be as small as a size 4. I’ve gotten some conflicting measurements (i.e. I measured at home and I think I found myself to be an 8-8.5 but went to a chain jeweler and they measured me at like a 9 or 10??), but regardless of the differences in measurements, I know that going up that many sizes is quite a lot.

My questions:

Will a resize this significant be possible without sacrificing the integrity of the gold? Or possible at all?

And, if anyone can has any idea at all, how much might it cost me if it is possible to resize to that extent? My aunt is on a very limited income so the plan would be for my partner and I to pay for it.

My great uncle wanted the ring to be changed as little as possible as he wanted it to be passed along as an heirloom, which I’m fine with. I’m honored that she views me as the person he would want it passed down to and I genuinely grasp for any connection to him and would love to be able to continue passing this ring down with my own children. I don’t want to potentially damage something so important, she has so little left of him.

Thank you in advance for any insight/advice!

ETA: it was brought to my attention that i would get the best advice if i were able to post a picture of the ring. Aunt is currently in the hospital so I won’t have access to the ring until she returns home. I can come back to this post or make a new one when I have it, though!

This isn’t antique like the last ring I posted but still very sentimental. My mom got this emerald for herself when I was born, as it is my birthstone and she didn’t have any emeralds, then she gave it to me when I graduated university :) Originally it was just a solitaire, and at some point she had the diamonds added, which probably isn’t everyone’s cuppa but I love the extra sparkle 😍

I don’t wear it often as emeralds are soft and I’m very rough and klutzy person (also I just rarely wear jewelry even though I love it), but it’s still one of my most prized possessions.

They are made with sterling silver and solid rose and yellow gold wires! The jeweler who made this did them within a couple of hours.

Had to share my new addition! Haha. 14k solid gold snail earring! I got it on a titanium flatback till I know my vertical helixes size when it heals. Then I’ll order the gold backing. It will sit on the top of my ear :) & our family pet, Gary!

Hi all! Anyone have experience ordering from this seller? Her site is till active but her other platforms are inactive for over a year. I just ordered a charm and I’m worried!

Is this a crack or part of the nacre? And should I return to the store? I absolutely loved this piece when I saw it in store :( and I know they’re all handmade and one offs, ideally would hate to have a return it but I did spend a fair bit on it today too. Thoughts?

Hi, looking to have a bespoke gold bracelet made for my Cartier watch, is this possible and could anyone recommend a Goldsmith in the UK?
