Is a lab-grown diamond a real diamond?

Yes. It has the same carbon structure and hardness as a mined diamond, just grown in a lab. It is not a simulant like cubic zirconia.

Will the sterling silver tarnish?

Sterling silver can tarnish over time, especially with daily wear and exposure to moisture or perfume. Store it dry and polish it regularly to keep it bright.

How does a heart cut compare with a round brilliant?

A round brilliant reflects more light and looks livelier. The heart cut trades some brilliance for its romantic shape, so expect a softer glow rather than sharp sparkle.

Can this ring be resized?

Sterling silver solitaires can usually be resized by a jeweler, but a large setting and thin band make it trickier. Ask a jeweler before buying if you need a big size change.

Is this ring good for everyday wear?

The high 5-carat setting can catch on clothing and the silver is softer than gold, so it suits occasional wear better than daily wear.

What should I check when it arrives?

Confirm the ring size, inspect the prongs for tightness, and look for any loose stone. Keep the paperwork that states the lab-grown origin and clarity.
