Sterling Silver 1.00 Carat Diamond Bracelet
I must respectfully disagree with the reviewer who gave this bracelet one star. Purchased last year during a holiday sale, the bracelet actually exceeded my expectations. No, the diamonds aren’t white and clear; rarely are “fine” diamonds used in silver jewelry at a budget price point. They are J-K in color (meaning slightly gray), and I3 in clarity (meaning not brilliantly sparkling). There is a substantial amount of bright, shiny silver. The bracelet is comfortable, workmanship is excellent (bling factor is good), and the clasp dependable. The width is feminine, yet noticeable at about 1/4 inch. Although I don’t wear it daily, I reach for it much more often than my gold-and-GOOD-diamond bracelet, because frankly that one cost me a huge chunk of change. My lifestyle is such that I work with my hands a lot in the kitchen developing recipes, at the computer, etc. This is a nice, everyday diamond bracelet. If you loupe the diamonds, they are certainly I2-I3 in clarity, yet who has ever had anyone grab her arm to loupe her bracelet? If she wants the best, this won’t be a piece for her. Value-wise, it’s ideal.
With holiday shopping having arrived again, I’d recommend this bracelet as a gift for a friend or for yourself. It may not be a high end… and that’s really the beauty of it. Very few women wear expensive diamond bracelets for everyday wear. It’s also a nice gift for a teen aged guy to get his girlfriend. Packaging is very giftable.
If you’re on a tight budget–as many of us are nowadays–give this bracelet a try!

I bought this from Amazon on sale at approx $[...]. I waited to long to return it – there’s a 30 day policy with this company. The clasp is the best thing about it – very nice quality. Came in a nice velvet box. That’s where it ends. The entire bracelet feels very light and even though it’s supposed to have diamonds, it doesn’t sparkle at all. It just looks cheap. I have a few piece of jewelry from this company and some were better quality than expected, some as expected and sadly this one was significantly sub-par.
