Top I Color Diamond Reviews

Riviera Pavé Diamond Eternity Ring that was reviewed by Patricia R.

Classic, beautiful and sparkly!!!

I purchased this eternity ring to wear with my Blue Nile engagement ring, which is a 1.40 ct. XXX VS2 I color round diamond set in the Petite Nouveau six-prong platinum setting. They look wonderful together. The eternity ring fits perfectly flush, and since the diamonds go all the way around, I don't need to worry about it spinning or not lining up. I have been going to Blue Nile for all my jewelry needs for many years, and their products and customer service are always outstanding. Ask for Tyler, and he will take great care of you!

Alternating Size Diamond Ring that was reviewed by Sunny E.

Good price, lots of sparkle.

For I color, I clarity I was surprised of its quality, it still sparks a lot. My main stone is D, vvs2, so it does look a bit hazy when I wear them together but it’s only when you looks really close and probably something only you will recognize.. Really wished the stones were a bit of better clarity but for the price & cwt this was a great deal. Also, I was under the impression the all rings from BN come with GIA certification but it didn’t.

Petite Nouveau Six-Prong Solitaire Engagement Ring that was reviewed by Henry C.

More brilliant in person

I’ve heard of Blue Nile from many different forums and blogs, and decided to dig in to find the perfect engagement ring. The process was quite straight forward with all of the tips and selections, but the biggest worry for me was having an expensive shipment via mail. When it arrived though, it was packaged in a simple brown box, with the elegant blue box, ring and certificate inside. All in all, a very reassured experience and seeing the final product in person couldn’t be any more brilliant/magical (I kid you not, it’s one fine piece of custom jewellery and I was impressed from an online purchase).
