It was a good experience I enjoy what I received

Lovely lab gem and smooth delivery to UK. Note that VAT fees are issued by Fedex after delivery. Bought as 6mm, measured with mitutoyo verniers at 6.00mm! I counted 101 facets vs a more typical 57, so the pavilion had a slight curve to it. Not an issue, just something to be aware of if your setting follows the shape of the gem.

Easy purchase and great that they deliver to the UK (VAT charged later via Fedex). Quick note on the website - when I selected GBP, the values changed but all the prices showed a $ sign right until card payment. However the value was correct in GBP and there was no further currency conversion.

Lovely lab diamonds, good value and smooth delivery to UK. Note that VAT fees are issued by Fedex after delivery. Ordered as 1.1mm and measured with mitutoyo verniers at between 1.10 and 1.15mm although it's tricky to measure at that scale.

Naturally found, rich blue Aquamarine gemstones are hard to find. Africa Gems sells high quality stones and I love buying them to put in custom made jewelry for my spouse for several years. So glad I saw these and got them during a holiday sale. As beautiful in person as online. Thank you!

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
