This is one of the most common questions I see here.

Step by Step

  1. Confirm the stamp or certificate before buying
  2. Check the return policy on the listing
  3. Order a size slightly larger if unsure
  4. Clean with warm water, dish soap, and a soft toothbrush
  5. Store separately to avoid scratches

I followed these steps and have had zero issues. Hope this helps.

Based on my experience: Short answer: no. I switched after a few months and never looked back. The upkeep was not worth it.

    Does the stamp always mean real?

I will give you the straight answer. I compared Blue Nile and Brilliant Earth before deciding. Save your money. The difference is noticeable but not worth the premium for most people.
