- Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?
- Yes. It is chemically and optically the same as a mined diamond, just grown in a lab. It will test as a diamond on standard testers.
- Is $2,682 a good price for this ring?
- Only one store lists it new at $2,682 as of November 7, 2026, so there is no competing new price to compare. Comparable 2-carat pear lab-diamond rings in 18K gold often sell in the $1,500–$3,000 range, so this sits in the upper half.
- Will the pear shape look smaller than a round?
- No. A pear cut spreads weight across a longer outline, so a 2-carat pear usually faces up larger than a 2-carat round.
- Can this ring be resized?
- Pavé bands are harder to resize than plain bands because stones run along the shank. Ask a jeweler before buying; many will resize only within one or two sizes.
- What should I check when it arrives?
- Look at the pear under daylight for a dark bow-tie band across the middle, and check that pavé stones sit tight and level. Confirm the carat weight and clarity on the included grading report.
- Does it come with a diamond grading report?
- Lab-grown stones of this size usually ship with a grading report from a lab such as IGI or GIA. Confirm the report is included before ordering.
