Hi All,
I feel bad for the folks who’ve had bad experiences, but after reading some review comments regarding diamond clarity and color, as well as noting the bracelet metal colors in photos, it got me thinking and wondering if people who order even review, but also understand the Product Details and Diamond Color & Clarity and Metal choice and its impact on the individually-desired product preferences?
This product page appears to let the customer know what diamonds to expect in this product, and it’s up to the customer to be aware of that, and if they love the look of diamonds per the product page’s listed characteristics, then go for it - they still make for cool piece to add to the Wrist Game stack!
The Details clearly list that the Diamond Color is ‘I-J’, which means that not only some color is present in each stone, but different hues and tones of color, will be present, and that the diamonds are not colorless. The Details also state that the Diamond Clarity is ‘I1 to I2’, which means ‘inclusions are not only obvious under 10x magnification BUT ALSO to the naked eye, which may affect transparency and brilliance’ - which then translated to a tennis bracelet with Diamond Clarity of I1-I2 can have the cloudiness or lack of luster/sparkle that is mentioned in some of the reviews for each of the tennis bracelet products.
Metal Color can also impact whether or not these I1-12 inclusions are present - For instance, many I1-I2 diamonds can have warm tones, so White Gold or even potentially Rose Gold, can make diamonds with I1-I2 clarity appear even more (at least in my experience), as cool metal color opposes warm colors in the included, non-colorless diamonds. Yellow Gold may allow the diamonds in this Tennis Bracelet product, or any product that uses diamonds with this product’s Diamond Color & Clarity, blend in and potentially slightly conceal some of the low-colored hues and inclusions; however, I digress. It’s also very trendy to have included diamonds nowadays - a popular example is Salt and Pepper Diamonds; however many icy white diamonds and other fancy colors can get their character from the natural inclusions they contain.
Also, mass-produced products that contain a high number of stones almost always do not have what true made-to-order products that contain a high number of stones will have, and that is all color- and clarity-matching stones, which then translates into only some stones being lighter and darker, sparkle more and sparkle less, etc.
Anyhow, Disclaimer: I am no expert, and this is just my take on this matter! Just here to put some perspective on the reviews for any folks who may be thinking about this product, other Diamond or Tennis products on this website or anywhere else, especially this holiday season when we spend more. Just learn the product and your preferences and remember that while this a bargain price for a getting an iconic and timeless jewelry staple piece in the form of a tennis bracelet, you are also only getting what a lower price point can buy for what is usually one of the more expensive jewelry items you can generally buy. Happy Shopping, Google/Ask Someone if you don’t know, and never forget that “An Educated Customer is a Happy Customer”! Cheers!
