I rarely travel out of the country with my real diamond wedding ring. I think every woman should have a simulated ring for travel, that way if it’s misplaced, stolen😳😮-you don’t care cause your real one is tuck away safely at home!👍🏾 Fun video !! 😊😊

I do the same thing with a CZ center stone but real gold (doesn't wear off or irritate my skin) just in case it gets lost, stolen, or... My kids think I'm morbid because I would want them to have mine should my plane go down. What? It happens.

@Privatereporter5050 5 лет назад

@bethbillings2449 5 лет назад

Yes! My wedding ring was stolen from my hotel room while I was at an amusement park several years ago. Ironic because I thought I would protect it by leaving it in the hotel room. 😏 Now I have several fake wedding rings that I wear depending on the occasion. I wear my real one most of the time but when I am traveling or in a sketchy part of the French Quarter, one of those fake rings is on my finger. Losing my original wedding ring broke my heart. Protect yours so you'll never have to feel that loss. Insurance money can't replace the sentiment.

naa, its a real diamond... Real diamonds have a more pure white reflection... Usually people don't know that the moissanite (way better that CZ), have a double reflection and that cause to have more reflection and colors... for people that don't know about diamonds, that looks sparky and better overall, so they choose those over the real ones... The only thing this prove is that the diamond are worthless and only stupid people waste hundred of dollars when you could purchase a moissanite ring for a fraction of the cost and 99% of the people wouldn't even notice it...

@RunaSaeunn 5 лет назад

Many new mines were discovered at that time and European financiers feared that the discovery of new mines would increase the supply of the gem and will result in it becoming a semi-precious gem. Hence De Beers, in 1888, became a merged institution (cartel) which controlled most of the production and distribution and perpetuated the illusion of scarcity of diamonds. This illusion helped them in stabilizing the prices of the gem. www.google.com/amp/s/www.feedough.com/diamond-marketing-de-beers/amp/

Bella Abastta Everything Runa said. Also you have no proof if your Diamond was humanely mined. People died mining diamonds. A lot of people. There’s no guarantee or proof that your diamond didn’t have a death toll trying to get from the mine to the jewelry shop.

@GastroVulpes 4 года назад

Darrell Cassell 🦋 I think it's a gesture of dowry. Marriage is ment to be a onetime event, until after death (or if you have multiple wives.) I think dowries or expensive rings are so it cannot be easily "redone;" they are forms of insurance. I'm still all in favor of real stones and metals, but a diamond is not necessary. Nor is a great expense. I visited a jewelry store recently and became very open to all natural stones as an option. Created stones can be to, if they're truly liked by the wearer. The hardness point is what makes a diamond special, I believe; and diamonds come in a rainbow of colors! I too think it puts on a lot of pressure to men. Unless you are passing down an heirloom, how on earth do you decide on metals, stones, and design? I like the idea of picking a ring out together, but that's after you ask. And what do you ask with? I think.. I'd still love my partner, and want them, even if they proposed with a fake WITH the intention for us to later choose together a ring perfect to my taste. In fact, I'd respect him for it -if that is the intention, of course. I think I'd also love whatever was chosen for me, regardless, because O live the man who chose it. Yes, pressure's on for men; it's hard to know a woman's taste in jewelry. And what about her ring size? They can be resized... to an extent... depending upon ornamentation. In one of Shea's videos, they upgrade her ring to celebrate ten years of marriage. I reallllly like this act. Propose with what you can, and upgrade to what you both or what she really wants later. That, I respect so much. At that point, both man and woman have worked for, and earned, a dramatic, expensive display of their marriage. 🦋✨✨

@seleenatrevino9398 5 лет назад

That’s why when my husband and I talked about a ring for myself we wanted to go the best route possible. We chose a lab made diamond and the white gold was repurposed from an old ring. Three years later and this ring still looks amazing and I always get compliments. I’ve taken it to the beach, I wash my hands with it, I do dishes, and look after two children. Not one stone has fallen off and the gold still looks really nice. We were actually at Kay yesterday for a cleaning and the jeweler couldn’t even tell without tools. My ring cost 500 alone. Not including the wedding band which was another 500. That ring was bought from a mom and pop shop and was previously owned so kinda thrifted if you will.

Real diamonds are actually not rare at all but these jewelry companies make you believe they are and upcharge people sooo much. De beers are scam artists. Once you buy a diamond ring it’s incredibly hard to make anywhere near what you paid for it, so in the end it’s not a good investment. Granted most people aren’t trying to resale their rings, but there are many other gems and crystals that are cheaper and worth way more! Anyways I loved this video, it was very different and goes to show the average person would never know! I like the idea of buying a cheap everyday ring to wear ♥️

@TheHipdeathgoddess 5 лет назад

Actually the larger the stone, the higher the investment. We have customers who buy 4ct diamonds from us, with the value sky rocketing in no time. Whereas a simple .50ct doesn’t really go up in price a whole lot. It’s no different than a high quality ruby or emerald, with the value going up in price. The size of these stones are a lot easier to sell typically through a jeweller in years to come.

There are reasons besides not being able to afford a diamond for why people chose to not get a diamond. Just saying!

@prittyugly86 5 лет назад

Thank you!!! When I was engagement ring shopping given my budget jewelers would say "oh you could get a diamond " and I'd say yeah but it's going to be a grain of sand! I went with a moissanite! 3.5 carats, a quarter of the price, TWICE the sparkle, and ETHICAL!!!! diamonds are a marketing scam, I'm chill on that.

@prittyugly86 4 года назад

@@s7r49 poor minded people want the diamond without thinking "why?" An affluent person would know there is no intrinsic value to a diamond, and if you want to sell it after your extremely lucky if you can get half your money back. Diamonds are a 1930s debeer monopoly marketing ploy. Environmental degradation, unethical buisness practices, and slave/child labor... naw I'm undermining that shit. My money is far FAR to valuable to pay into anything like that.

@prittyugly86 4 года назад

@@s7r49 you can call yourself or anyone "poor" but it puts you down and you don't know the number in someone's bank account. Maybe they don't agree with vertical emulation and conspicuous consumption/purchases. Please be kind to others regarding how they spend, especially yourself.

braindamage You’re saying a lot to defend these fake diamonds so I’m wondering if you are trying to convince yourself that your fake one is better? Cause it’s not?

@maddi3787 3 года назад

@@RugbyPrincessT I don't see why braindamage would have to defend themselves lmao. I inherited my grandmother's 6 carat engagement ring and bands (valued at 375k) and honestly the CVs I bought off of Amazon are better looking and I actually wear them. (No offense to my grandparent's taste though) I'll probably end up wearing one of my CVs when I get married, cause they're so much better. I'll probably have the band re-done in real silver, but they're pretty damn good otherwise. The only complaints I have are that you have to bake them for them to look good, they don't have weight, and the ring bands are cheap af. It's kinda funny that people still buy into that scam when CVs are way better.

@WonderfulHayden 5 лет назад

Many people don't know that diamonds actually exhibit less fire ("rainbow effect" Shea was describing) than CZs and moissanites. However, the flip side is that someone used to the typical brilliance of a diamond can tell a stone is fake because there's too much fire.

@bethschaefer18 5 лет назад

Yes, a real diamond usually has natural inclusions, that's why they don't have as much fire or brilliance as a cz would. I have a couple of rings that are cz and I love them. I mix them with my real diamonds.

@annedavis3340 4 года назад

A moissanite isn't "fake." Wtf I want a moissanite precisely because it HAS more sparkle. If someone can tell it's a moissanite I'm going to be excited someone knows there are prettier alternatives to diamond out there.

The difference between a so-called real diamond ring and a so-called fake diamond ring is time. In addition, the fake diamond rings are better quality than the majority of the real diamond rings that people wear, which have inclusions and faults. Why not get yourself a man-made diamond ring that is absolutely flawless compared to a so-called real diamond ring that has all kinds of inclusions and doesn't refract the light properly. but the North American way seems to be that the more money you spend on something is apparently showing the much better quality it is. Well that's not true.

Yes this is true of synthetic diamonds. However the fake ring she has on here is not a synthetic but a simulator diamond ring meaning it is not made up of the same material of a natural/synthetic diamond.

@edennis8578 4 года назад

@@zipporahmbangi6933 Nevertheless, the real diamond ring probably cost $20,000+, where the Tigergem ring was less than $200. You could buy a new fake diamond ring every 6 months for the rest of your life and still not spend that much money. Or, buy one on ebay for $10-$20. I have a list of several sellers who sell such good fakes that my jeweler sister-in-law thought they looked real. She was amazed, and a little put out. 😂
