GIA is, as I understood after some googling, the most trusted independent authority on diamonds. However, if you pick a dimanond of 0.25 carats or bigger, Glamira offers you a GIA (Gemological Institute of America) certificate. Naturally, I was pretty suspicious about that. The thing is, the institution that is issuing the certificate is the same one that is selling you the ring. With a diamond you get a certificate that proves that the diamond has all the characteristics that you payed for. Going through the customization menus, I started having more and more questions. I made a shortlist and finally picked the winner. The listed ones only had very classic rings, about one fifth of the Glamira offer. They have a nice web app that lets you customize your ring very nicely. There are literary hundreds of different rings to combine with dozens of different stones. Going through their site, I saw that they also have the most diverse offer. I quickly learnt about the ways to rank the quality of the ring and the diamond (4C scale).Īs I started searching, Glamira was one of the most aggressive advertiser. And thought that I could get a decent value for money if I bought the engagement ring online. I opened it on Google's service because I knew it will be crawled the fastest so the content will soon after publishing be reachable from the Google search engine. The reason I created this blog is so I can have a ready place to put content online if I ever need such an outlet. You can check some of the old posts, they are highly uncorrelated :D. This blog dates back to 2011 and I have since written only several posts, some in English, some in Croatian. This is not an active blog, I am not a blogger. I had couple of phone calls with Glamira about this after they've already shipped the ring back to me.īut the ring came back in perfect size, so I kind of made peace with it.įirst of all, a few introductory words. What they did was, they resized the ring, and sent it back, and without contacting me completely disregarded half of my instructions. There couldn't have been any ambiguity about what I wanted from them. My requests were very clearly stated in the form paper I attached with the package. This would not have been such a big deal, but for the way they have handled this entire situation. I should not have cut the black tag.Īfter you cut the tag, you can no longer exchange the ordered ring for a different one. Without carefully reading the instructions, I cut the tag when I was about to present the ring to my girlfriend. The ring originally comes with a black tag attached to it. I spent around $50 for shipping to return the ring. So, we explicitly stated these requests in the form that we sent back along with the ring. I contacted Glamira to arrange the return for resizing.Īlso, after discussing it with my fiancée, we decided it would be better to have 14ct gold instead of 18ct, and to have a slightly larger stone. It turned out that I ordered the wrong ring size, it was too big. Overall, an expert opinion was that I got good value for money, which was all I came to hear.

This was a free of charge appraisal and they did say that I might have gotten a bit worse color than stated in the specifications but also that it isn't something to be worried about because it happens very often it's practically normal. I took the ring to a local gemologist and they confirmed all of the ring stated characteristics. All things considered, the delivery is quick. I took about a week for a ring to get made, and then couple of days for delivery. Customer service not on the highest level. The delivered ring matches specifications. As it often happens, I got severely delayed with writing the follow-up article.
