    I have a jewelry question....

    For my 10th anniversary, I get to pick my ring out. I have an idea of what I want, but I also don't want to spend a fortune on it.. so... has anyone ever purchased any of the "absolute diamonds"?? I thin HSN or QVC sells them in different types of jewelry. On tv they look REALLY nice, but I don't want to get it then it turn out to look like CZ and be glazed over in a few months. I'm just curious as to how well those of you who have bought them, like them
    Don't make me get out my flying monkeys.

    I don't care for the absolute but I really like the diamonique line at qvc. You might also want to look at the signity cz stone. And if you want to spend about $300 or more try the moissanite stone.

    I got an absolute ring with one of the hsn coupon codes and have worn it once or twice,...now it looks like crap! Stones look milky and awful. I won't buy it again.

    My DIL has a moissanite ring and it is ABSOLUTELY beautiful!! If she hadn't told me it wasn't a diamond I never would have been able to tell.

    I think the best looking manmade diamond is the Moissanite. From what I gather even a jeweler has trouble telling that it is not real.

    My mom bought a pair of diamonique earrings from qvc about 4 years ago and they still look wonderful. She wears them every day. They are still clear and they sparkle. I have a pair of diamond earrings almost like hers and you can't tell the difference in them.
