hi all, while choosing for my proposal ring, i spotted a dot under 10x scope on vvs2, is it normal? n i always spotted something under a 10x from the 'side' at vs1 to vvs2, is that normal too or i am just too particular abt it?

i was quote by a sale person from 1 of the shop in a shopping centre, H&A D vvs2 0.56/58 triple excellent but slight fluorescence for 55xx, is it around that price?

i just started looking at diamond from the shop, had been reading online but not yet really look at the diamond until now.

I would try to avoid diamonds with fluorescence too.. And if you're getting a D color VVS2, where the slight inclusion bothers you, the fluorescence will definitely bother you..

Did you see the diamond under the ASET scope? Not all Triple excellent diamonds are good...

Same here. Would not go for any diamond with fluorescence.

I have to give my highest recommendation to Paul, not forgetting Jann and Casey too.

Went down for my first proper appointment for ring design. I have to say i suck completely at drawing and wasn't able to articulate the design well. We wanted to incorporate a multitude of ideas that meant something to my fiancee but didn't quite know how.

The best bit was that Jann and Casey knew that our idea was going to be pretty tough to translate into and they didn't just try to do it for the sake of doing it, but instead referred it to Paul to handle the design.

What i really liked about him was that he really put thought into what the design should be like and incorporated our ideas wonderfully into it. What's more is the fact that he gave his views on what works and what won't. Not only that, he actually drew out 3 designs and explained the pros and cons of each! We're very lucky to have Paul do the design.:)

Quite excited to see the 3D design! Also i will be using mini solasferas to accompany the bigger brother.

Once again, kudos to JP! You guys have done it again!

Hi all, just wanna ask if we bring the diamond rings bought from private retailers to branded stores such as Lee Hwa for polishing/ resizing, will they do it?

polishing yes, resizing i'm not sure. anyway for your budget i strongly encourage you to look online. i'm 90% sure the price is better than anywhere in SG. maybe because aftersales service is out of our reach. check out pricescope and play around with some specs to see what you can get. keep all options open and be patient, surely you will find something you were looking for.

Wah, looking forward to look at your ring design!!

Anyway, in my opinion, customizing ring is much more expensive than standard ring design. Depending on how fanciful the ring design is.

It is best to go down on your own, to understand and see their diamond personally. Or it will be much faster if you give them a call. They will be able to advise you on the spot based on your budget.

Price wise quoted still okay for me, since we're going to use mini solasferas :)

I'm really looking forward to it myself, Paul is a very creative guy who can articulate his clients' ideas very well indeed.

Ya. I agree too but sometime it's so hard to book an appt cos of their operating hrs. Email will be good.

Help u to email n got a reply from JP.

For a very rough price guide, a Super Ideal Round 0.51ct E VS1 would cost about $4,500 (Including GST)
*Each grade change in Color and Clarity can affect the price of the diamond by about 6-15%.
*Do note that this is only a rough guide as it is subjected to fluctuation in diamond prices.
-We strictly follow the diamond market price (updated every Friday).*
-The USD exchange rate also affects our prices.

An 18kt white gold classic setting would cost about $550 (Including GST)

All of our rings includes after-services, including

1 Free laser engraving

4 Free ring resizing

4 Free replating/repolishing of your ring

Bro Sasuke.. you don't need the aset scope. Just use your Sharingan! :D Can see everything liao. For non-ninja people like us, we need to rely on the aset scope :s13:

-sorry, i just had to say it :)
