I called tiffany at tuesday. They said they don't have a better stone because they all like this in the store. If I want to have a better stone I need to go bigger in size. I can't belived it. First I tried the necklace on in september with a stone in 0,22 for much more money. So it must have been a better stone. The woman at the hotline was very rude to me and I think she didn't take me seriously. This was the first time tiffany was rude to me. It is a piece that cost a lot of money and I spend over the years a lot of money at tiffanys.
I don't think she called my SA. She said that they can look worldwide in the stores for a better stone but she think there's no better stone or that they can get it. My SA dosen't called me yet. Should I call tiffany again? Or take the search some time? Maybe they don't have a better stone at the moment? Christmas and the corona virus...

Sizing up is no problem but I'm not sure. I don't want the stone to be too big or too small.

The woman at the hotline says because it is a small diamond you won't see !a difference in color with a better stone. I went to my local jeweler yesterday because one of my rings need a repair I asked him and he sad the same.

@Nycgirl813 post you're picture again. I like to see other necklaces in comparison. :smile:

I want to layer this necklace. If I can I want to get better diamond necklaces. This is my first diamond. Other diamonds I have are much smaller. I layer my necklace with them or fake diamonds. At the moment I like it. But I don't know if it will bother me when I can get a necklace with a better diamond...

I think I is only the max at tiffany for engagement rings?

It looks cute on you, but if you are not happy return until there is a better choice. Don’t keep a piece you are not happy with. It is not worth the investment to question if you like something. This is not a $100 item. You should love it!

This is mine facing sun and away. It's .22 G color from north park location. I've added comparison of the stone size and color next to .3 F stones I have in sun and away.

Here is my opinion, although It may not be a popular one. Does it have to be Tiffany? The markup on Tiffany diamonds, especially in this size, is just crazy, in my opinion. I would go back to the jeweller and ask what quality diamond you could get for the same money. The setting is rather generic so I do not think it makes it that much more special just because it has a Tiffany stamp. You could do this for comparison's sake if for no other reason. You want the diamond to be the center of attention - not the setting. I would not accept a J color diamond from Tiffany's for the price. Again, this is just my opinion, and I hope you find something you are thrilled to own :)
 
Hi there, not sure if I’m allowed to post here for advice on the same item! I just purchased a Tiffany solitaire pendant; and the diamond origin is of Russia. I thought Tiffany ceased importing new diamonds from Russia, but I guess they’re still selling old stock. I bought the solitaire purely out of its specs (J color and VVS1)/my budget. Does this make my purchase a “blood diamond” purchase? I’m not sure how to feel right now.
