Are diamond earrings worth the money?
Would appreciate any links to reputable sellers.
Great question.
| Option | Typical Cost |
| Lab created | $1,500 |
| Natural stone | 5-10x more |
| Plated alternative | $20-$50 but will tarnish |
If you are on the fence, go with the middle option. The plated stuff looks fine for a month then turns skin green. The natural stone is beautiful but the markup is brutal.
Let me break this down clearly.
I followed these steps and have had zero issues. Hope this helps.
Good thinking asking this before buying. I bought mine from Tiffany for about $800. I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
Not worth the risk in my experience. Spend a little more and buy from a real store.
