Is 925 silver good quality?

Here is what I have found after researching for weeks. I ordered from Charles & Colvard online. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.

Great question.

What My Jeweler Said

My bench jeweler told me the main thing people regret is skimping on the setting. The stone itself is fine, but a weak prong will let it fall out. Spend a bit more on a solid setting.

Bottom Line

Yes, it is worth it for most people. Just buy from a known seller and inspect the prongs every six months.

Great question.

What I Noticed

The sparkle is actually more brilliant than a diamond in my opinion, especially under indoor lighting. Up close, nobody has ever guessed it was not a natural stone.

Cost

I paid $1,500 including the setting. A comparable natural diamond would have been at least five times that. The price difference is the main reason most people go this route.

Durability

It is still going strong after two years. I clean it once a month with warm soapy water and a soft brush. No scratches, no cloudiness.

Who This Is For

• Great if you want maximum sparkle on a budget
• Great if you do not care about resale value
• Skip it if you want something that holds investment value

Here is what I have found after researching for weeks. I have heard good things about Brilliant Earth, but I personally used Pandora. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.

I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
