Engagement ring...

meixin - yep, there are synthetic diamonds. They are exactly like the natural ones but man made. Cheaper and better quality.

[sensi]

^^so may man made diamonds narin pala? wow, thats good to hear. and good news rin for the people who cant afford a real diamond. thumbs up for this!

[shinies]

Oo matagal na Kung tutuusin, mas siguradong ethical ang man-made diamonds kaysa original. Pwede naman kasi nila sabihin na hindi blood diamond yan pero anong malay ng buyer?

Ang moissanite, pinakamatibay sa lahat (mas matibay pa sa diamond).
Pero ang signity cz daw ang pinakamakinang sa lahat (susunod ang moissanite). Naiintriga ako dito kasi ang daming nagoorder at nagsasabing mas makinang daw talaga signity kaysa diamond nila. Ito din ay mura lang.

[sensi]

^yes ang kinang eh singkinang ng handle mo sis;)

so if may man made na diamond, mas makinang na ba ito kesa sa original?

[shinies]

Hahaha di ko napansin yun ahh.

Oo kasi wala na dumi/inclusions sa loob ng bato di gaya ng mined. Kailangan mo lang hanapin yung magandang kalidad.

[meixin]

Same brilliance sa diamond. And hindi siya completely walang inclusions meron pa din daw parang mas malaki lang yung chance na lesser yung inclusions if I understood them correctly

Hello Girls,
i'm really disappointed with luvi.
I inquired last july pa and they replied once asking how much is my budget for the ring.
I told them 250-300k, after that no more reply.
is their ring really that expensive?

any other recommendation/s with the same craftsmanship?

Thanks!

^Try AMI Jewelry in Greenhills or Orogem Jewellers in Podium and Greenhills.

My engagement ring was set my Panopio Jewelry in Manila Peninsula. But the setting was really bad. So I had it reset in Orogem for a much cheaper price and better quality. I also ordered my wedding ring there and saved 80k from the quotation from Panopio.

[shinies]

Kahit magfollow up ka wala pa din sagot? Alam ko sa GH ang tindahan/opisina ng Luvi at kaya daw mahal kasi magaganda daw talaga mga bato nila at mapuputi.

[meixin]

We had our wedding rings and a jewelry set (matching earrings, necklace and ring) made at Elegancia, Podium. Maganda naman design, antayin ko nalang yung output di ko pa nakikita e, then I'll update my feedback

[onemanga]

@shinies

Alam ko Luvi works with some clients who have million na budget but that shouldnt stop them from working with clients with smaller budgets. I second the reco on Orogem, pretty easy to work with and not too expensive You can also try the stores in Shangrila-- Diamante and MyDiamond.

re proposal, 2 days prior my bday tumawag siya sa parents ko para magpaalam na magpopropose siya (pero di ko alam na tumawag siya at kung anong pinag-usapan nila. wala akong idea talaga), then kinabukasan tumawag naman siya sa parents niya para magsabi na magpopropose na siya sa bday ko. ang alam ko lang uuwi siya from sg para sa bday ko. tapos ang plano papasyal sa kamay ni hesus, e kumain muna kami sa buddy's. after kumain kinuha niya sa van yung cake tapos nung naset na yung cake sa table namin paglingon ko sa kanya may inaabot na siya na singsing tapos lumuhod siya at sa sobrang ingay sa buddys di ko na narinig ang sinasabi niya basta sabi ko nalang yes. hahaha kasi daw kung sa taas pa ng kamay ni hesus baka daw umulan. simple lang, ang mahalaga after 7 years next level na.. 😊

Question lang to everyone - is your engagement ring insured?

Parang di uso sa Pilipinas. Kasi when I was trying on wedding gowns I mentioned my ring is insured sabi nya first time daw nya makarinig ng ganon.

[shinies]

Di uso sa Pinas pero kung gusto talaga, pwede pagawa sa insurance company.

[MS_JanDel]

^Sis hindi nga uso sa Pinas yun. KAya I really have to take care of it kasi pagnawala siya, wala na talaga.
