I did view it under the microscope, can see the shape but since it's already set in the ring I can't see from the bottom for the hearts shape. Can also see the inclusions which is very very minor.

They have their own "ideal cut" diamonds which sparkle more brilliantly than the GIA ones they showed. Or maybe it's the sales talk that made it appear to sparkle tongue.gif

I ended up buying this diamond as I felt it was "right" (no experience, so all pakai feeling) tongue.gif

This diamond is certified by IGI, I did some research and the lab is also quite reputable, not too bad compared to GIA.

Thanks to all for your guidance and sorry for the late reply, just got back from holidays

GIA is one of the facilities grading diamonds and there's no such thing that a diamond "better" than GIA certified diamonds because GIA doesn't churn out diamonds. All these are just talks or "marketing gimmicks" to make their product more appealing. As far as cuts are concerned, triple excellent cut is the best cut money can buy.

Poh Kong has these Hemera diamonds and they spot 2x the amount of facets which makes them sparkle more than the normal cut diamonds but if i'm not mistaken, these are diamonds are not certified by GIA because they are deemed "abnormal".

i heard from my jeweler friend that these diamonds has no value because no collectors would want them as their are out of the league.

i don't think so. love&co is quite exp compare to other shop. love&co 0.2 carat cost me rm7k while le lumiere 0.4 carat cost me rm5k. But i really think is the most good looking bands (for my taste). it's simple yet it's not plain. it's up 2 u to choose, whether you want design or carat more. smile.gif

woah! that's VERY expensive.

I got my loose diamond from Wah Chan (GIA Certified), .5ct, D, VS1, Triple EX for RM8k and then i made the band from Love&Co. The band itself costs RM4k but it's really worth the price. the workmanship of the ring itself is just great, very wearable.

wah, haha. didn't know can buy the diamond only. My first time buying diamond ring by myself. I heard many people say the love&co workmanship isn't that great compare to the ring they display. is it true? still haven't get my ring yet, so kinda worried.  hmm.gif

yeah, you can buy loose diamonds from them but usually people also go for the ring because most of them bought with a purpose and would prefer not to be hassled with the trouble in shopping elsewhere. their ring is cheap and depending on the weight and design, it should costs you no more than RM800.00 but bear in mind that you can feel the rough workmanship after you have felt the ones from Love & Co.

hearsay can be in many forms. i've got my engagement ring and wedding bands from them and they have not misrepresented to me in any manner whatsoever. the ones on display which i have tried on feels exactly like the ones I've bought, if not, better so yeap, don't worry too much. besides, i trust their professionalism. the salesperson attended to me was very helpful and friendly. I went to the Garden's branch.
