I talked to my jeweler about this last month. My jeweler recommended Pandora. Yes, I have had mine for two years and it still looks great. Just clean it regularly with soap and water.
I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.
Quick summary first, then details:
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. I compared Tiffany and Brilliant Earth before deciding. I asked my jeweler the same thing. He said it is safe for daily wear as long as you avoid harsh chemicals.
I would say yes, especially if you are on a budget. I have had zero problems so far.
Here is my honest take after owning one. This is totally normal. Mine did the same thing for the first month then settled.
Based on my experience:
My Setup
I wear mine every day, including to the gym and to sleep. After a year and a half it still looks brand new.
What to Watch Out For
- Buy from a reputable seller, not a random listing
- Ask about the color grade before you order
- Get a certificate of authenticity
My only regret is not sizing up slightly. It fits snug now that winter is coming.
