Description: This listing is for a really nice, palladium ladies wedding set featuring four round brilliant cut natural diamonds. Palladium is a member of the platinum family, and it has many of the same benefits. It is hypoallergenic, and a great choice for sensitive skin. It also is naturally white, so it doesn't require rhodium (another member of the platinum family) plating like white gold does in order for it not to appear yellowish. The major center diamond is in the engagement ring and measures approximately 4.9 - 4.8 x 3 mm with an actual weight of 0.46 carat. It is nearly colorless, graded at H, with strong blue fluorescence. The fluorescence isn't really noticeable except under a blacklight; the diamond doesn't have a distracting hazy, cloudy, or oily appearance. The overall cut of the diamond is good, and we grade the clarity at I-2; based partly on a cavity in the table (top facet). We have positioned the cavity so you can see it in reflected light in the last photo of the two rings together. This cavity isn't obvious when looking at the diamond in normal conditions; the diamond is still very pleasing. Because of this, the diamond cutter made the decision to leave this flaw because polishing it away would have made the finished diamond immensely smaller. But you can see it in reflected light and can feel it with your fingernail. The very low pricing of this nearly half carat diamond considers the nature of the flaw. The full cut round accent diamonds in the wedding band are well matched with a manufacturer's stated combined weight of 0.15 carat. They average approximately 2.4 mm in diameter. These diamonds are nearly colorless with an average color graded at H/I and are very well cut. They are generally eye clean with an average clarity and graded at SI-2. Total natural diamond weight of the wedding set is stated at 0.61 carat. All the diamonds in this ring are 100% genuine, natural, earth mined, untreated, and unenhanced. Natural diamonds have a centuries long history of appreciating in value, whereas lab grown diamonds have an undeniable history of costing less and less money every year. Don't settle for a mass-produced lab grown diamond that lacks the rarity of the diamonds that your parents and grandparents owned! The wedding set is style number B08A17 by the Minneapolis based manufacturer, Ostbye. Ostbye normally only sells to better independent fine jewelry stores. As mentioned earlier, it is constructed palladium; 950 purity. The rings are currently finger size 6.25 but are sizable by a good jeweler. The set weighs 5.9 grams and is approximately 7.5 mm wide at the top when worn together from outside of the major diamond prongs to outside of the opposite band. This wedding set was priced at $4,050 in our brick-and-mortar fine jewelry store when it closed in 2020. But this requires a disclaimer. In the months before we closed our business, the spot price of palladium was in the neighborhood of $2,350 per Troy ounce. This year it has been mostly selling in a range of about $900 to $1,000. At today's palladium price, we would have priced the set at about $2,350. Although spot palladium is less than half the price of spot gold, finished palladium pieces typically sell for a little more than gold because of the higher purity of the metal and because of higher manufacturing costs. In view of all of this, we are offering this delightful set at the very low, closeout, buy it now price of just $1,349.99, and we are including FREE insured priority shipping! We only have one piece of this description, so it is first come, first served. This wedding set is solid precious metal and unworn; don't be duped into buying a cheap gold-plated ring or someone else's worn-out castoff! We are including a nice little gift box as shown in the images that has a nifty integrated magnetic bow. We are also including a certificate of appraisal at its full current retail value to assist you in getting adequate insurance coverage should you wish to do so. The photo here is redacted due to contractual reasons, but your original certificate will be fully signed by our Master Graduate Gemologist Appraiser. Please look over the information and images carefully. We are listing it with a return privilege in case you feel something is not accurate in the description, but we really don't want it back since we are now retired and are selling it at a closeout price. Honestly...please don't ask to return it for some reason already clearly detailed or shown in this very complete listing! But be confident knowing we have had 100% positive feedback since joining eBay in 2004, and in the fact that our store stocked well-made, quality-inspected jewelry designed for problem-free wear. Thanks for looking!
