Fast shipping! Dimond came just as I thought it would look.

Bryce, so glad it landed just as you pictured it, that's the whole point of listing precise specs and certification up front, so there's no surprise when it actually arrives. Appreciate you taking a moment to share this. Thank you for choosing Calavera!

This is my second time buying a ring from calavera This was a custom build wedding band to match the diamond ring I purchased earlier this year. The quality and the price is unbelievable. The team and the designer got back to me quickly and worked out a plan together to customize the ring I wanted to match the one I have. My wife has no words she was over the moon

Randy, welcome back, and what a project this one was. Matching a custom wedding band to a ring you already love is a different kind of challenge than a first purchase, so it's great to hear the design team kept the collaboration tight and fast the second time around too. Congrats to you both, and thank you for trusting us with round two.

Everything they said they’d do, they did in the timeframe they laid out. Bill D

Bill, that's exactly the reputation we're trying to build one order at a time, say what we'll do, then do it, on schedule. Thanks for putting that into words for us.

Diamond was shipped fast and matched the online representation. We were worried that the green we saw online would be a different shade when it arrived but it was not. I was also a bit concerned that Calavera wasn’t legit but after seeing so many on Reddit state they got exactly what they paid for… I was reassured and will now add my name to the ranks of very satisfied customers. Also, when the gem has registration numbers, you can find the identical rock being sold on other sites and it drives home what a slamming good deal you are getting. The pricing is so reasonable that my wife is already thinking of getting more gems to have some additional jewelry made and I am not giving her the side eye

Matthew, this might be our favorite kind of review to read, because you did exactly what we hope more people do before buying anything expensive online: dig in and verify. Every stone's registration number is there specifically so you can cross-check it independently, so I'm glad that gave you the confidence it's meant to. And the fact that the color read true against the listing matters a lot to us, that's one of the trickier things to get right in photography, so hearing it matched in person is a real relief to pass along to the team. Tell your wife we're happy to help outfit round two whenever she's ready.

Diamonds were fabulous and as advertised. Excellent pricing for diamonds and the settings. Communication was outstanding.

Adrian, thank you, "as advertised" is doing a lot of work in that sentence and we don't take it lightly. Glad the settings pricing and the communication both held up their end too.
Kelly J.
It was very scary to trust this purchase to a mail order company. That being said, I am absolutely ecstatic with the outcome! The ring is breathtaking!
Reply from Calavera New YorkSep 29, 2026
Kelly, I love that you named the fear directly, trusting a big purchase to a company you've only met online is genuinely a leap, and it's exactly why we lean so hard on documentation and communication throughout the process. So glad it paid off, and congratulations on the ring.

I love my diamond. It’s gorgeous and looks like a million bucks
Reply from Calavera New YorkSep 29, 2026
Chelsea, "looks like a million bucks" might be the best possible summary of what we're trying to do here without the million-buck price tag. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing this.

The wait was worth it

Stephen, short and true, we know the wait can test patience, so hearing it was worth it in the end means a lot. Thank you for choosing Calavera!
