    Our chosen wedding band & ring to try on at our appointment
    Chastity V.

    Lauren C. is so incredibly helpful, knowledgable, and a joy to work with! I made an appointment to look at wedding rings/bands with my fiancé. Lauren took us to our private showroom for our appointment, gave us plenty of information, answered our questions, and let us try on a variety of rings. She also helped us figure out our accurate ring sizes. Lauren helped me order the Ballad Three-Quarter Coverage Lab Diamond Ring in White Gold, which matched well with my engagement ring. My fiancé was still in the process of shopping around for his band, and Lauren kindly sent me an email with a link to his favorite wedding band style from the appointment for reference. I had my wedding ring shipped to the store, which arrived earlier than promised. I was given complimentary Recycled Silver Stud Earrings with my purchase. The ring is gorgeous, great quality, and I'm very happy with it! Highly recommend booking an appointment with Lauren!

    Online 6mm round $295 in settings with chain

    Our experience at this location was extremely disappointing and frustrating from start to finish. The process -- from ordering lab-created gemstones to selection, availability, delivery timelines, and communication -- was consistently disorganized and below expectations. Initially, it took several weeks just to order a few stones for in-store viewing. At the last minute, our appointment was canceled due to delays, and a new appointment was scheduled without any regard for our availability. When we raised concerns, we were informed that stones could not be ordered without a scheduled appointment -- despite the fact that our original appointment was canceled by them and they had no idea when the stones were going to be available. Frustrated with the lack of coordination, we escalated the issue to corporate, and a regional manager eventually contacted us. We were hopeful this would lead to a smoother experience, but unfortunately, the issues persisted. After finally viewing the stones, we asked some very basic questions regarding sourcing and pricing discrepancies. We inquired why a lab-created stone of the same style, size, and shape -- already set in a necklace online -- was priced at $295, while the identical loose stone in-store was nearly four times the cost. The associate was unable to provide any explanation. She also had no knowledge of the stones' origin or manufacturing details. It has now been over a week since our visit, and despite her commitment to follow up with answers to our questions = NOTHING. Huge RED flag when a vendor cannot verify the source or quality of its lab-created gemstones, suggesting that quality control is unregulated--this is perhaps why there is such a discrepancy in pricing of the similar stones -- and noting that they are only the 3rd party sellers = even higher mark up. Given this lack of transparency and accountability, I would not recommend purchasing from this store. Buyer BEWARE.

    Ring set incorrectly another time

    My fiancé and I had an absolutely terrible experience with Brilliant Earth. We chose BE because they sell conflict-free natural diamonds, have a beautiful store, and an easy-to-use website. Initially, the in-store customer service seemed great, but everything went downhill once payment went through-- and when they tried to set the diamond. I wanted an oval diamond set in one of their most popular settings, the Freesia 2mm Solitaire. When we picked it up, we immediately noticed the band was made incorrectly. It's supposed to elegantly taper toward the diamond (see photos), which it absolutely did not. Our sales associate at the Walnut Creek store, Danica, strongly advised us not to return the ring, claiming we could lose the diamond if it went back into circulation and someone else bought it before us. This was pure fearmongering. In hindsight, it doesn't even make sense--we could have returned and re-purchased the diamond immediately in store. Unfortunately, we trusted her advice and opted for a repair instead, as she assured us the ring would be remade correctly. That turned out to be a huge mistake. Brilliant Earth has a strict 30-day return policy (remember this), and they conveniently delayed the repair so it was completed after the return window closed. That would have been tolerable if the ring had been fixed--but it wasn't. The repaired ring looked almost exactly the same. How that's possible, I truly don't know. This is supposedly their most popular setting, yet it looked nothing like the photos on their website. By then, we were outside the return window, so our only option was a third repair. Somehow, it came back wrong again. The third version finally had the correct band, but now the diamond was set extremely high. I specifically chose the Freesia because it was marketed as "low profile" since I'm very active, but this ring would snag on everything. At this point, over three months had passed since ordering. We later learned Brilliant Earth uses outside jewelers for setting, which explains the total lack of quality control. They suggested resetting it a fourth time, but by then we understandably wanted a full refund. We spoke with the store manager, Rachel, who was extremely incompetent, then escalated to a regional manager, Jillian, who was the first genuinely kind person we dealt with. Despite her sympathy, she repeatedly stated we were "outside the 30-day return window," even though BE had possession of the ring the entire time. I spoke to someone above her - she robotically said the same thing. I ended the call by saying I was not satisfied and would fight it. Miraculously, the next day they called and approved a full refund--likely because the fourth attempt was also set incorrectly. This experience completely ruined what should have been a joyful engagement process. My partner had to change proposal plans due to the three-month delay, and we were constantly stressed about the ring being wrong. My advice: go with literally any other jeweler. We switched to a professional independent jeweler in San Francisco's diamond district and had a 1000x better experience--better diamond, perfect setting, and it was cheaper in the end. Avoid Brilliant Earth at all costs.

    Hello, Brilliant Earth in Walnut Creek was spectacular. Going into our first schedule appointment I had no clue as to rings, let alone the details/variations of diamonds. Yaya was amazing and took the time to get to know myself, my girlfriend and our styles. She allowed us to try rings on, look at different diamond shapes and educate us. She fostered an environment of ease and took what was a stressful situation and made it one of enjoyment/fun/excitement. We left with knowledge and enthusiasm for the future. She provided us with a summary of our first visit and details of everything we liked from band, diamond, size, etc... which made it easy for me to compare different engagement ring through true website. In the end my now Fiancée loves her engagement ring and we are both excited for the future. We highly recommend Brilliant Earth to anyone, ask for Yaya at this location as she's amazing to work with. We look forward to making our follow up appointment with Yaya for our wedding bands. Thank you to Brilliant Earth and Yaya!
