Ring Concierge Round Diamond Studs vs Round Four-Prong Lab-Grown Diamond Studs

Buy the Ring Concierge studs if you want natural diamonds with a known, excellent cut and a low-profile martini setting that sits close to the ear. Buy the four-prong lab-grown studs if you want higher color and clarity grades, a choice of carat sizes from .25 to 8.00, and a classic four-prong look. The Ring Concierge pair is a fixed 0.75 carat total in I-J color and SI clarity, so it trades grade for natural origin. The lab-grown pair grades E/F color and VS1-VS2 clarity, but the listing gives no cut grade, so brilliance depends on the stone you pick. Owners of martini settings like the Ring Concierge pair praise how they hug the ear; four-prong settings like the lab-grown pair show more metal and sit slightly prouder.

• Choose the Ring Concierge Round Diamond Studs if you want natural diamonds, a certified excellent cut, and a three-prong martini setting that sits flush against the earlobe.
• Choose the four-prong lab-grown studs if you want top color and clarity grades, a wide range of carat sizes, and lab-grown stones at a lower cost for the size.
