Ms Harry Winston, not many radiants have Amora-ized, so I would not worry about the radiants drying up anytime too soon. I think it will be an RB problem first, and a cushion problem next. wink

I thought the radiants and ovals automatically came with Amora?

When you look at the upgrade, it says they are, and the pricing is same on "regular" and "Amora" loose stones pages.

I wonder if C&C might be sending BTD already rejected stones on purpose. Or maybe hoarding better cut/color moissanites for their FB project.

Less, I am not sure I understand. I can see Monaco in the list of countries with patent restrictions until 2015. Monaco in no.15 here:

Can you please confirm? How is it going to work?

Good catch - I meant "Malta" and have updated my post!

Thanks,

That's the problem there aren't that many of them. Because only few people want radiant cut. But if the small supply of them that IS there get all bought out it will probably take FOREVER to get them restocked. Because EVERYONE want rounds. So which cut do you think will have top priority to be restocked the moment new stones can get the Amora treatment? Rounds. I can see them supplying the stones with the highest demand because it just makes better business sense.

So I'm freaking out because there is only ONE 8x10 radiant left and my guy isn't ready to but my set yet. AND radiant cut isn't on the Amora Gem list. So I could be completely sol for a stone. :'(

And I don't want to buy an Asha and then upgrade later because I'm very sentimental and just want MY ring forever and always.

But the pool of radiants from C&C hasn't really been touched yet... If MoCo sells the 10x8, they can Amora a new one for you.

+1 on the 9mm OEC request!!


We'll definitely look into adding the 9mm - 9mm is a great size imo.

Best regards

I am just poking in to say, the website says OEC will stop at about 8mm and I have a setting being made for 9mm. So, which way is this going to go? love
