Pointer #1: What is curation?
Our Clients deserve only the best diamonds! We trust our eyes more than just looking at a certificate. You simply can't see /trust the difference between stones comparing them online. This is the true difference you’ll find working with us, making sure you’re getting the best bang for your buck!
Pointer #2: TIPS from Bonnie when you're looking for an Oval:
1. Ex/Ex on cert does not mean the cut is perfect. There are so many more factors that affects the overall look of the Diamond
2. I want "No Bow-Tie". Don't buy an Oval, Buy a Round!
3. Keep your desired length to width ratios open.
Pointer #3: Bear in mind that the color of the metal of your setting can reflect into the stone. Two-tone settings offer the ability to have a colored band, without compromising the pure color of the center stone. Conversely, having a full setting in yellow or rose gold allows you more flexibility on the color of the stone.

Yes, Bonnie! Would love to see a video on the diamonds that didn’t make “the cut” ;)
I used to want such a blinged out ring, diamonds all over the band, diamond with a halo etc. then when I actually went to have a look for some ideas I literally fell in love with just a solitaire on a platinum plain band. Something about a plain band and just that one diamond it is just absolutely stunning. I feel like the diamonds on the band take away from the beauty of the centre stone, same as here with the ovals!

I 100% agree! In my early 20s I wanted a ring with micropave and a halo and ended up going with a solitaire with a simple hidden wrap underneath the stone for a little detail. It really makes the center stone shine. ❤

It doesn’t. You’re entitled to your opinion but this idea that side stones take away from the center stone is just something people love to say that has no merit. That’s my personal opinion. Nobody look at the diamonds on the side and say omg we can’t see how beautiful the main stone is. If the main stone is the main thing, even with side stones, it will never be upstaged.

@@MelissaLona you’re not really allowing me to be entitled to my opinion when you’re claiming it’s just something people love to say with no “merit” lol. It’s not something I just “love” to say, I genuinely think a big rock on a plain band is it for me, I didn’t always, but hey taste changes! It’s also not specifically just my opinion, as I’ve known many many others to think the exact same thing. I think it takes the attention away, you don’t. That’s why everyone has different engagement rings, because we all like what we like. :)
Yes, yes, yes to the video on diamonds that don’t make it please! When jewelers say that, I’m always curious to see how they decide what isn’t good enough and what do they do with the bad ones. ♥️
Thought I’d want a pave band, but after seeing them side by side I think I’d prefer plain with a separate pave band
Your videos are super helpful and so much fun to watch!!
Both rings are beautiful!! I’m a solitaire, platinum setting lady! 😍

I am a solitaire fan also. I also like 3 stone, but I like the side stones to be small accent stones, not 3 big stones. Pave bands are not my style. They're too girly and feminine for me.
Oh my, that three carat is amazing. Wowza!
I adore my oval with a cathedral French pave’ setting. Watching your videos convinced me it was the one. It does totally matter how good the cut is however and spring for the best stone you can afford.
Both rings are beautiful! Hard choice and when I chose my ring it took me awhile because I narrowed it down to it and another one. I tried both of them on a few times, and am happy with the one that I got ❤️
Hey Bonnie! mind doing another updated video on moissanite and the different cuts and sizes pleaseeeee! I love all of your videos and would like more visibility within the moissanite world 🥰
Can you make a video similar to this but for a Marquise cut diamond? They’re less popular and it’s harder to find what looks best with it..
Yes please Bonnie, would love to see a video on diamonds that don’t make it thanks
Hi my sweet Bonnie, would you mind making a video like this for the cushion cut too please please please? 😚😚😚 Thank you in advance! ☺☺☺
I much prefer a solitaire. I'd rather put funds towards a bigger diamond and it really stands out with just the plain gold finish on the band.
Can you show some of the diamonds that don’t make it?
Yes I'd like to know and see a video showing diamonds that dont make it please.😊
I'd love to see a video on which diamonds are "not on par" 😂😅😁Also, I don't know if you work with them, but if you do, can you make a video on colored gem stones (like sapphires)?
Would you please make videos that include engagement, wedding, and anniversary rings all together? Diff combos etc.

Absolutely! We have "diamond ring timelines" of what you're looking for on our Instagram :-) Please check out our reels tab for the content you're looking for. IG: @bybonniejewelry -Team By Bonnie 💎
Yes, Bonnie! I am actually really interested to see the process and what diamonds don't make it. Please make the video soon :)
They are both so gorgeous!!
How big/ thick should the band be with a 3ct stone ?
Love love love your channel. Very informative content. I have a moissanite 3 stone washer cut ring and an assher cut band. But looking at the oval I'm 2nd guessing myself. I love my rings they're stunning and because it's moissanite it's hot beautiful fire. I wanted something that wasn't on everyone else's hand. But Bonnie every single one that is on your feed I want. I'm just greedy! 😁😁 Keep bringing great content and yaaasss I want to see the stones you pass on. Bring it girl! 🥰🥰
Hi Bonnie. Wanted to see if you could make a video of a similar ring (oval with French pave) and wedding band options. Just started the process for the engagement ring with you and would be nice to see some of your recommendations for wedding bands to match. Thank you!

Hi Ryan! My name is Pamela and I'm the Social Media Manager here. Please message us through Instagram and I'd be more than happy to show you some wedding band pairings with oval paves. :-)

Wow! I have no clue about the oval diamond
i just had to choose the oval shape after seeing your videos
Yes Bonnie!
BONNIE! I love what you do but please please pleaseeee!! Make a video comparing oval diamonds and all their sizes 2.2, 2.5, 2.7, 3.0, 3.2 etc up to 4 This video exists NOWHERE on the web. Please also discuss YOUR finger size because everything is relevant! If you’re a size 5 and match my wife to be then it REALLY HELPS.. thanks!!

Hey there! Thanks for reaching out 🙌 Will definitely keep that in mind, meanwhile here's an IG Reel we did, comparing Oval diamonds: instagram.com/p/CxIvg0oriTs/ Hope this helps! -Team By Bonnie 💎
If only you were in the uk. You’d definitely have my order. X
I think if you have a stone that large, you don't need the pave--- it's overkill.
Bonnie can you look at my hand and suggest a cut? I'm interested in your opinion.
Bonnie thanks for the great comparison! I have been watching your video and understand that color may not be very noticeable when the diamond is weell cut and view from the top⋯ but im still have a question for you⋯ do you personally think color h is acceptable?
Hey Bonnie, I am so impressed by your expertise and the quality of your diamonds. I would love to buy a ring, but Im looking for a 0.50ct oval, since it isn’t appropriate in my country and my type of work to wear a big diamond. Is this something you would consider making? I totally understand if it isn’t worth your time. ❤️
Yes! Show us the diamonds that don’t make it
Would love to see the diamonds that didn’t make the cut Bonnie!
could you do a comparison video similar to the platinum vs yellow gold comparing 18k rose vs yellow? ❤️
Nice rocks.
The size actually looks pretty similar despite the .5ct size diff!
Yes would love to see stones that don't make it
How do you get a triple excellent for a fancy shape?
yes please share the diamonds that did not make the cut!
Actually, it is all in the way the diamond is cut if it is cut perfectly a one and a half carat diamond will look better than a 2 1/2 carat diamond, or will have more sparkle and fire to it. I hate paves & halos… they that so much of the Main Stone away from it. A couple of baguettes on the side is perfect!
Yes I would love to see the ones that don’t make it.
here's me moving my phone to catch more glimpses on the ring. lol

Yes Bonnie 🥰
I like the pave band look better. The plain band would be for people hard on their rings.
Pavé makes the band looks messy. Besides, why put money into the setting when you can put it into the quality of the stone?
Can you do a video on asscher cut rings
Yes bonnie!
Yes bonnie
Yes that you because lately I've been wearing fake jewelry
Where the video of diamonds that didn’t make it?????
💕👍😍
Please show diamonds that don't make the cut.
😢 I saw your face more than the actual rings
I doesn't like oval ring.

Size matters
Disliked because of subtitles. F subtitles.
It’s really bothers me when I see or hear that women demand a certain karet weight Size should not matter it’s what a person’s fiancé can afford no one should go into hock for it
Yes Bonnie!
