Diamonds unimpressive, returned item
585742
Just received this in the mail - I was somewhat suspicious when I called the Bradford Exchange and the rep was unable to tell me what the carat weight of the diamonds is. But he assured me of its "brilliance" so I took a chance knowing I could return it if necessary. The carat weight of the diamonds may just be 0, the metal outshines them by far and it just looks cheap and unimpressive. Nothing like the picture. For the price, you can get something much better at your local jeweler.

Im a happy Amazon customer; however these earrings were the lowest quality jewelry Ive seen. The stones were dark grey - not black with a line in the center with scratches, not the same size, screw backs did not work.

Please Amazon be selective on the goods you offer.

This 0.10 Carat solitaire looks much smaller in person than on the Amazon's website. You can barely see it. Also, my diamond had a very noticeable black spec inside of it. The clarity of this diamond must not be very high. This might be an isolated incident. Overall I was not happy with this product. I personally would have been embarrassed to have given this to anyone, but maybe I'm not a big solitaire necklace fan. The diamond would need to be larger. Fast shipping, though.

We purchased two of these Pendant Necklaces for our daughters for Christmas.  We were disappointed in that even using a magnifying glass we were not able to locate the diamonds.  Although we purchased these through Amazon.com they came from Bradford Exchange.  Bradford Exchange has offered to refund our purchase, but, I think that when something is advertised as having diamonds, you ought to be able to find them.  Perhaps they are the famous 'Kinardly Diamonds', so small you 'can hardly' see them.  We don't plan to purchase any further products from Bradford Exchange.

This ring was so perfect that I ordered it twice hoping the second one would be in better shape but it was not.  I returned them both - the diamonds on the main setting are very dirty & cloudy that I had to pass.  I wasn't expecting stellar quality for the price but I also didn't want to wear a ring with such poor quality diamonds.  I'd rather the diamonds look fake or even yellowish compared to the grey ones that came on both of the rings.  I'd pass if I were you although returning them was a cinch.

Just arrived today and am sending them back.  The lower half does not dangle as it gets stuck and sticks out in mid air.  The clip on one earring will not stay on as it pops out on its own.  The back of the pendant is unfinished so there is a "hollow" where the "diamond" sits at the front of the earring.  They have a nice sparkle but the workmanship is not worthy of almost $30.00.  I really expected much more than I got.

This is a followup to my one star.  The seller contacted me and offered a replacement free of charge and promised to give the earrings a thorough inspection before shipping.  I am extremely impressed at his offer.  It shows me they really care about every customer.  I will return with a new rating once I receive my replacements.  I must recommend this seller for attention paid when there is a problem.

Based on the image and the reviews, I expected to love this.  When it arrived, I was disappointed.  It's made on flimsy wire and the stones looked like they were slapped on as quickly as possible without any sense of aesthetics.  The amethyst stones at the top were very pale and looked like the fluorite in the center of the piece, very unlike the image in which the contrast of the deep dark purple with the light fluorite was quite beautiful.  Amazon was great about refunding it, as I returned it.

The Black diamonds in this piece look more like a metallic color, not black.  The picture in the ad looks 100 times better than what I received.  Not happy and would not recommend to a friend or purchase anything else from this seller.

The ring is nice but the diamonds are not very good quality. They are cloudy and not very shiny. next to my ring it is more noticeable.

The pendent is very small. It honestly looks better on the internet then it does in person. The diamonds are really dull and not a black as seen in the picture. The chain is also very short. Since it was not that expensive and  I live overseas its not worth me sending it back so I will keep it.

No diamonds visible.  Supposedly only one extremely tiny chip in each earring.  Took to jeweler and she said earrings don't justify being called "with diamonds".  Had to use strong magnifying glass just to see diamond chip.  Topaz also very pale.  Size was good.  Returned earrings.

I bought these earring hoops when they were on 60% sale. Cost me about $76. When they arrived, I was very disappointed by the quality of the diamonds---no sparkle at all. Also, it hard to put on as well --- the needles are incredibly thick, and the end is dull --- it pained my ears a lot. I took them to a jeweler and got them checked. It turned out that diamonds on them are real, just poor quality. The jeweler sharpened the tips for me so its easier for me to put them on. I am a little bit happier with them now, and since they do look elegantly on my ears, I regard my goal achieved. I give this product 4 stars because they came in right Amazon's description.

The shape and dainty size was beautiful, but the stones were actually dark and dull. Not at all sparkly. I didn't expect much for the price, but I wouldn't wear these and certainly wouldn't give them as a gift. They have been returned.

It's pretty when you view the details, but the ring itself is so super small, it's hard to see those details. And the diamonds are almost non-existent. I could hardly see anything. Such a pity, it could have been really nice.

*edited: the more I'm used to its size, the nicer it seems :) but the tiny diamonds are still useless, so I gave it a 4 star instead

This ring was indeed a real diamond and was, from what I can tell, real gold. The diamond had a huge and very obvious inclusion across the whole top of it. Mix that with some carbon in the center and it looked very cloudy and not very sparkly. While the set was still pretty, that inclusion warranted a return. If you are truly on a budget and can deal with a poor quality diamond (my lady would have but I couldn't) then this will do fine. I don't even know if this would qualify as the I2 that they describe. It did get close to the color but it was still off from described.

Again, if you really need something and this is in your budget, it'll work well and I'm sure she will love it. If you can visit a local diamond jeweler instead and see if you can work out a deal, you will be better off. Remember, they want your business at a local joint and will do what it takes 9 times out of 10 to work with you.
