Looking for the best deal online for a pair of Diamond Stud earrings with platinum backing since she is allergic to gold. Cut is round, .90-1.05 carat, G-I color, SI1-VS1 clarity. You also suggested coupon codes for Blue Nile. Open to other suggestions as far as vendors. Thanks for help.
I’d be happy to make some recommendations for you, but I need a little more info.
What total carat weight are you looking for (~1ctw or ~2ctw)?
Here’s the code. [contact us for your own unique coupon code]
I am looking for 1 carat in total for the pair of diamond stud earrings. What is the code for?
Alright, thanks for the clarification.
That BN code gives you $100 off of your order.
I looked around and I love these diamonds for you:
Blue Nile LD07644733
Blue Nile LD07893444
They are well cut and match perfectly.

Thoughts?
Are you only recommending Blue Nile as the best value?
I was also looking at this diamond:
https://www.helzberg.com/product/1ct+tw+diamond+stud+earrings+1828330.do?sortby=bestSellersAscend&catId=2596&from=fn
They have a sale right now and I can get $500 off so I can get it for 2249. Can you compare the 2 and tell me the pros and cons. Plus for any earrings I buy I need platinum backing since my wife is allergic to gold so Helzberg will charge $250 additional for platinum backing. What does Blue Nile charge?
In your case, yes, I recommend going with Blue Nile. The diamonds I picked are very well cut and also, their prices have dropped to the point where you can often find a VVS diamond that is a better value than an eye-clean SI elsewhere.
I wouldn’t recommend the Helzberg diamonds as they are more expensive and much lower quality than the BN ones. Also, we recommend avoiding IGI lab if possible: https://www.diamonds.pro/education/igi/.
OK. Thank you.
