I really want a white gold 14k 3 prong 7 carat VS F/G but I don’t know where to start or what websites to shop at?

I’ve purchased a few items from whiteflash and blue Nile.

I recently saw this website gamzoandco.com but I’m not sure how legit they are?! Has anyone shopped with them? They have very low prices for great quality so I was curious.

Thank you for any information!
 
It is stunning......i love it. Are they a jeweler??? Beautiful.
Yes. Second or third generation family business based in Asia though. :)

I get all my more expensive pieces from them because I trust them to select the best stones since we’ve been friends since 8th grade….and I’m 40 now! LOL
 
I wanted to share the tennis necklace I got this year. I started off wanting something in white gold in the line style with diamonds all the way around. I purchased one in a 3.5 carat, but I did not like how it sat on the neck constantly flipping upside down and it caught in my hair pretty bad, so I returned it. I then switched over to looking at a vintage style in yellow gold with a slight graduation. The diamonds don't go all the way around to the back of the necklace, which eliminates the hair catching and I think also helps with the flipping (it still flips, but pretty much flips right back). The setting is a buttercup setting I believe (don't quote me) and it dates to about the 1990's from a seller on Etsy that listed it at approx. 4 carats.

I'm also sharing this other one that is in the line style that I found thanks to Lucywhims on IG. It's a Nadri CZ tennis necklace from Bloomingdale's. Although it is not diamond, I really love this one too if you want to test one out before making a bigger purchase. It's rhodium plating, which holds up really nicely and I think the stones look amazing. It also does not have diamonds all the way around and has an adjuster to the back. It does flip too, but seems to flip right back as well.

I really like both of them and agree that you can’t tell a huge difference in the size. Did you feel like the diamonds stood out more in one shape vs the other? Do you plan on layering it or mixing metals? They look great on you!
I had the same dilemma and ended up going with the 3 prong necklace
Thats the one my husband liked the most so I let him choose

So pretty! Is this a 3 or 4 prong? And do you wear it 24/7 (ie: sleep, gym, shower)? Does it get in the way if your hair or is it pretty low maintenance? Anything you would change about your decision?
