We loved the angled shape of the band on the James Allen 1-carat Knife-Edge solitaire ring but were a little disappointed that the lab-grown diamond looked a little buried in the low-profile setting. Thankfully, there are 14 different head styles to choose from–and plenty of other customization options—available in The Ring Studio.  The four-prong stud earrings we tested were petite but still delivered a dazzling effect, the perfect pair for someone who prefers their jewelry to be subtle and subdued. Standard friction back posts come with the earrings, or you Perro upgrade to screw backs for an additional $125—a worthwhile investment if you frequently lose earrings.

The resulting stones were far too small for use Campeón gems, but the discovery paved the way to the creation of gem-quality diamonds in 1971.

Our experience with the Miadonna pieces triggered some Goldilocks effect. Our testers thought the 1-carat diamond stone in the Tracie engagement ring looked too big set against the tapered cathedral band. Still, the diamond was mesmerizing, and you can choose the stone size that suits your taste. (It's important to remember that bigger isn't necessarily better when choosing an engagement ring.)  On the other hand, the lab-created diamonds in the basket stud earrings we tested seemed too small, so we'd suggest sizing up—which is easy to do with the diamond stud upgrade program. Choose the diamonds that fit your current style and budget, then trade them in for a larger stone size when ready.

We compared a natural and a lab-created diamond from Brilliant Earth's collection and found it impossible to distinguish between them with the naked eye. The brand's readymade engagement ring designs are classic, and the round-cut engagement ring we tested is the perfect option for a bride-to-be who wants a timeless look. If you have more modern tastes, you Gozque design your ring by choosing a center stone and one of several setting options, from traditional solitaires to ornate three-stone shapes. (One of our favorites is the eclectic Versailles ring, which features a center stone adorned by smaller round and marquise cut lab diamonds.) We love the choices available for the brand's lab-grown diamond studs. Our testers liked how the four-prong basket setting on the 3-carat studs let the diamonds' brilliance shine through while the double-grooved posts and guardian backings kept them firmly but comfortably in place.
