Not everyone was born with a shiny silver spoon in their mouths. Not everyone can effortlessly pay thousands of dollars for jewelry. The most expensive diamonds can only be afforded by the Donald Trum
ps and Tom Cruises of the world. For that reason diamond simulants have been created. The statement that diamonds are a girl's best friend is no understatement. Women love shiny things that draws attention and envy amongst their peers. If you can deliver on both you will have the love of your life at your fingertips. The first thing you need to look for is quality, not all fake diamonds are the same. Cubic zirconia is one of the most recognized diamond substitute however, it is not the best due to its glass like qualities. In other words, it just doesn't cut it. You can find Cubic Zirconia almost anywhere today but why would you want to. If you're in the market for a beautiful peice of jewelry that speaks expensive, and superior quality you may want to give Diamond Nexus labs a try. They are among the best in the business. After taking a brief tour of their website I have discovered that not only are their prices reasonable but the jewelry is beyond any simulant I have ever seen. Their Diamond clones as they like to call them mimics real diamonds with its ability to cut through glass and shine with the best of them.
On Tuesday, Oct. 23, Eric Blake of Appleton, WI found a 3.92 carat diamond at the Arkansas State Park, The Crater Of Diamonds located near Murfreesboro, AR in the southwestern part of the state.
It took Ace Diamond not one, but two brain tumors to learn that the stress induced by associating with negative, untrustworthy people has the power to kill. Today, Diamond is breaking all the rules by writing rap music about his battle with cancer.
Because I've always felt that the old Pokemon games were the best of their time, I decided to give the relatively new Pokemon Diamond/Pearl a chance at a review. Can you teach an old game new tricks?
Being the only 30 year old Pokemon fan I know, I had to rush out and buy Pokemon Diamond and Pearl when they came out. Read on to see what I thought about these highly addictive games.
There are numerous factors to take into consideration when choosing a diamond. Here is a guide to buying diamonds using several features, including the four Cs: color, cut, carat and clarity.
That is why the diamond industry is hard to stop bcoz CZ, Moissanite, DNL etc doesn't look much like natural diamonds!
Synthetic diamonds except for Apollo does not offer colorless diamonds. And it is the colorlessness of the diamond that people wants not color.
Perfect Diamond
I too have a ring from DNL and it is stunning. No one has been able to tell the difference. I have many rings that have cost a pretty penny, but my DNL ring looks better than the rest. Plus it cost 3 times less!!!! try them and decide for yourself. I admit I was worried at first, but I have been VERY pleased with my purchase.
I too wanted to point out that there are NUMEROUS stories out there independent of Nexus' self explanations, that show their clever MARKETING (like DeBeers is so good at with their "Blood Diamonds....which I refuse to buy; from anyone) is what gives the perception of their product as "Carbon Copies" (pun intended) of diamonds, but they have been pressed in to admitting they are simply CZ's in the past. And, your poster/reader is correct, similar quality CZs can be had for 10 to 15 dollars. I have one set in sterling bought on sale, that EVERYONE thinks is real, and the fire is amazing. The sterling shines. It's very special. I hope my engagement ring (its been ordered I've been told) is as awesome.

Gloria, I have actually "owned" a piece of jewelry from DNL, but only for a few days, and then it went right back in the mail. Although the setting was nice and was real gold, the stone was obviously a CZ (it just had that CZ look about it). But what infuriated me was that I asked the sales rep point blank over the telephone whether it was a CZ, and I was told it was not. She said they were "created diamonds".
Although I had no trouble getting a refund, I personally was not too impressed with the service. Good customer service includes tell your customers the truth about what you are selling, not misleading them to think they are buying "created diamonds".
But in hind sight, I think I am just as upset myself with being tricked and fooled by their antics. The writing was on the wall. But I guess I am simply too trusting of a person. But at least this is being exposed. I wish I would have found this forum before wasting my time with them.
Yes, It's an absolute fact that DNL stones are Signity "Signature" CZ's. How do I know? My friend works there and told me how they buy from Stuller and set these cz's. The Signity cz's come to them in black blister packs and are individually bagged for their jewelers to set., according to her. That's why you can buy them as loose stones. Just goes to prove that only in America will people but things that are touted as one thing but is something else. Kinda like vitamin supplements or Water with vitamins added to it.
I have several rings from DNL, and they are absolutely gorgeous, and put my REAL, high quality diamonds to hame. They metal is also real gold. Isn't it funny how whenever something new, and good comes out, so do the sharks? I think it would be interesting to know how many of the negative comments on some of these blogs are actually moles who do this as a hobby or career. Unless you actually own a piece of their jewelry you cannot speak to the quality, appearance, or service of this company and it's goods.

Jared..I agree that Nexus is evasive and is muddy waters in explaining what their product is. It could be stated a lot clearer than they do, it's no wonder there is suspicion they are hiding something. But they do guarantee the product against discoloring..ever. This suggests to me that there is more to it than just a CZ though now I'm convinced that whatever, the Nexus stone is basically a CZ.
