The diamonds are stunning and the ring is exquisitely beautiful! It was delivered efficiently and was packaged in a lovely box. I’m extremely pleased with the quality of the ring and it was affordably priced.

Custom work lives or dies on the timeline, Tyler, so it's good to hear yours went from design to delivery without dragging. We'll be here when you're ready for the next one.

Alex, good to hear the diamond showed up when we said it would. Shipping questions deserve quick answers, especially when the box holds something this small and this important. Enjoy it.

Primarily the value you get with the pricing and quality of their loose lab diamonds. I bought a 3.07ct oval, it was delivered in 10 days, which given that it shipped overseas, cleared customs and then was shipped to me, was very acceptable. Lab diamond came with IGI certificate as shown on their website. I will recommend them to my friends and family, and will purchase additional items from them in the future.

Erik, a 3.07 carat oval is a serious stone, and the IGI certificate in your hands should match the one you saw on the site. Glad the ten days worked for you. Bring the friends and family along next time.

Wow, we will definitely shop here again no one could beat that price. Our 5ct lab grown diamond came exactly like it was described, so happy with the quality. It is beautiful and came with all the paperwork. Very happy with this purchase. I will update when the ring is finished. We made our purchase on a Thursday and received it the following Wednesday less than a week, great delivery service.

CMac, a 5ct lab grown diamond that shows up exactly as described, paperwork and all, is how it should go. Thursday to Wednesday isn't bad either. We'd like to hear how it looks once the ring is finished.

I had never purchased a diamond online before, so I was honestly very nervous about making such a big purchase without seeing the diamond in person first. I probably asked more questions than most people 😂, but everyone at Calavera was incredibly helpful, patient and kind throughout the entire process. I never once felt like I was bothering them or being rushed into making a decision. I was looking for a very specific round lab-grown diamond to upgrade my wedding ring, and they took the time to help me compare different stones, IGI reports, sizes and specifications. They answered all of my questions, gave me additional recommendations based on exactly what I was looking for, and genuinely helped me feel comfortable and confident with my decision. I ultimately purchased a 5.01 ct round lab-grown diamond, and it arrived today. It is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! 💎❤️ I couldn't wait to see it outside in the sunlight, and the sparkle and flashes of color are incredible. It is everything I was hoping for and even more beautiful in person. Their pricing was also amazing, especially for the quality of diamond I received. I had originally planned to upgrade through the jeweler I've used for years, but after finding Calavera, purchasing my new diamond from them and keeping my existing diamond made so much more sense. In fact, I've been so happy with my experience that I'm already working with Calavera on a custom semi-mount for my other diamond. I think that probably says more than anything else I could write about how comfortable they've made me feel purchasing jewelry online. 😊 For anyone who is hesitant about buying a diamond online, I completely understand because I was absolutely that person! Calavera made the entire experience so much easier than I expected. Thank you for your patience with all of my questions and for helping me find a diamond that I absolutely love. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase from you again — and apparently, I already am! 😂❤️💎

Ask all the questions you want. A round lab grown diamond for your wedding ring deserves every one of them. Sunlight was the right first test, and it sounds like it passed. Now on to the semi-mount for the other stone.
