Question 1

What makes the emerald cut different from other diamond shapes?

Accepted Answer

The emerald cut features long, rectangular facets arranged in a step-cut pattern that produce a distinctive hall-of-mirrors effect — a deep, glassy flash rather than the scattered sparkle of a brilliant cut. This open, transparent style highlights the diamond's clarity and gives the stone a sleek, architectural presence on the hand.

Question 2

Are the tapered baguette side stones also lab-grown diamonds?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the tapered baguette side stones are lab-grown diamonds, bar-set on either side of the center stone to frame it cleanly without competing with its presence. Their tapered shape is specifically chosen to echo the geometry of the emerald cut and create a cohesive, linear silhouette.

Question 3

Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Lab-grown diamonds are chemically, physically, and optically identical to mined diamonds — the same carbon crystal structure, the same hardness (10 on the Mohs scale), and the same brilliance. The only difference is origin: they're grown in a controlled environment rather than extracted from the earth.

Question 4

Will the center stone look cloudy or dull over time?

Accepted Answer

No — lab-grown diamonds do not cloud, fade, or change in any way over time. The emerald cut's open facets do show inclusions more readily than brilliant cuts, which is why selecting a well-graded stone matters; every center stone comes with an IGI certificate documenting its quality.

Question 5

What certification does the center diamond come with?

Accepted Answer

The center stone is certified by the International Gemological Institute (IGI), one of the most respected grading laboratories for lab-grown diamonds. The certificate details the stone's cut, color, clarity, and carat weight and is included with your purchase.

Question 6

Can a gemologist or jeweler tell this diamond is lab-grown just by looking at it?

Accepted Answer

Not with the naked eye — lab-grown and mined diamonds are visually indistinguishable without specialized equipment. Even trained gemologists rely on advanced testing instruments to differentiate them, and the IGI certificate will note the lab-grown origin.

Question 7

How long will it take to receive this ring?

Accepted Answer

The ring is crafted in 2–4 business days, then shipped free via FedEx Priority Overnight Delivery with tracking provided once it's ready. From order to doorstep, most customers receive their ring within approximately one week.

Question 8

What if I need a different ring size?

Accepted Answer

You can request your size at the time of ordering, and if the fit isn't quite right after it arrives, TheLocalJewel offers free ring resizing within the first 60 days of purchase.

Question 9

Can I customize this ring  different metal, stone size, or engraving?

Accepted Answer

Yes  you can customize the center stone's carat or shape, switch the metal to 925 Silver, 10K, 18K, or Platinum, choose white, yellow, or rose gold at no extra charge, or add an engraving. Message before ordering to confirm your preferences, and a CAD or render may be shared for approval before production begins on custom requests.

Question 10

What is the return policy for this ring?

Accepted Answer

Standard pieces are eligible for a 30-day return from the date of delivery. Fully custom pieces  where design changes were made beyond standard sizing — are non-returnable, so the pre-production approval process is there to ensure you're completely confident before crafting begins.
