Frequently Asked Questions

A few questions we hear often, and what to know about how we craft, choose, and stand behind our pieces.

Visiting Us & Getting Started

Do you have any other locations?

We currently operate primarily online, allowing us to serve clients worldwide.

Starting June, we will also open a showroom in Los Angeles, where you’ll be able to view selected pieces in person and experience our craftsmanship up close.

In addition, we have one showroom located in Shanghai and an office in Hong Kong to support our global operations.

Appointments will be available for private viewing. More details will be announced soon.

Are you able to work with clients remotely?

Yes. Most of our clients work with us fully remotely via email or WhatsApp.

Our process is designed to be seamless:

  • Diamond selection (from our curated inventory)
  • Design discussion and customization
  • CAD preview within 24 hours
  • Crafting and quality check
  • Photo/video confirmation before shipment

You’ll be guided through every step, just as you would in a physical store. For more information on our process, please visit the "Custom" page.

How long does it takes to produce a ring?

Most made-to-order and custom pieces are crafted within 7–14 days.

For more complex designs or special cuts, the production time may extend to 2–3 weeks.

We also offer a selection of ready-to-ship pieces, which are dispatched within 1–2 business days.

Once completed, your order is shipped via DHL Express, typically arriving within 3–5 business days worldwide.

Do you accept trade-in for pre-owned engagement rings?

No, we are unable to do trade-in for pre-owned engagement rings, as we only sell Elora brand rings from our own collection. 

If I already have a diamond, would Elora build a new setting for it?

Yes, we can create a custom setting based on your diamond’s exact measurements.

For security and logistics reasons, we do not accept customer-owned diamonds for setting. Instead, we craft the setting and ship it to you, and you may have the center stone set locally by a trusted jeweler.

Can you remold my old setting or reset the pave diamonds from my old setting into a new custom ring?

No, we do not reuse the metal and diamonds from previous settings.

You can customize:

  • Diamond shape, size, and color

We provide a CAD preview within 24 hours, allowing you to review and refine your design before production.

What makes Elora’s lab-grown diamonds different?

Our diamonds are carefully selected or cut in-house to meet high standards in brilliance, proportion, and color.

In addition to classic cuts, we also specialize in antique-inspired cuts, fancy shapes, and larger carat stones, offering options that are rarely found in standard market inventory.

Our team can also recommend options based on your preferences and budget.

Do you offer fancy colored lab-grown diamonds?

What type of quality do you use for your pave diamonds?

Our pave diamonds are generally E-F color/VS clarity, but depending on the center stone, they may be adjusted.

How do I know that the main diamond and the certificate match?

Diamond verifications are provided by independent appraisers. You may take your ring and its certificate to one or any jewelry stores offering appraisal services, read your diamond’s laser inscription under a microscope to ensure it matches with the certificate.
