We made our jewelry shopping more exclusive and curated by dedicated expert client advisors to help you with your jewelry needs. Simply speak to one of our client advisors to find the perfect jewelry item for you.
We guarantee that every jewelry item we sell is 100% authentic. Luxury Bazaar stands behind our authenticity guarantee and offers a full refund on any item not found to be completely authentic.
This depends on the ring itself and we invite you to ask a team member on a case by case basis. Be aware that any modification to jewelry items will void the return policy.
Each bracelet is sized individually and those measurements are shown in the product details. You can also ask a a team member to provide additional measurements if needed.
All of our gold items are 100% gold and the purity is disclosed in the product details such as 14K, 18K, and 24K.
A gold karat is 1/24 part, or 4.1667 percent, of the whole, and the purity of a gold alloy is expressed as the number of these parts of gold it contains. Thus, an object that contains 16 parts gold and 8 parts alloying metal is 16-karat gold, and pure gold is 24-karat gold.
Diamond Clarity Refers to the Absence of Inclusions and Blemishes. For example:
Flawless (FL) No inclusions and no blemishes visible under 10x magnificationInternally Flawless (IF) No inclusions visible under 10x magnification
Very, Very Slightly Included (VVS1 and VVS2) Inclusions so slight they are difficult for a skilled grader to see under 10x magnification
Very Slightly Included (VS1 and VS2) Inclusions are observed with effort under 10x magnification, but can be characterized as minor
Slightly Included (SI1 and SI2) Inclusions are noticeable under 10x magnification
Included (I1, I2, and I3) Inclusions are obvious under 10x magnification which may affect transparency and brilliance
Diamond Color Actually Means Lack of Color..
GIA’s D-to-Z diamond color-grading system measures the degree of colorlessness by comparing a stone under controlled lighting and precise viewing conditions to masterstones of established color value.
We can definitely try but it may take more time than you’re willing to wait.
