JNCY 1.33 ctw Round Lab Diamond Pave Engagement Ring Review

For $1,750, this ring sets a round lab-grown diamond of 1.00 ct in a pave band of 14 small side stones, 1.33 ctw together, in 14k yellow, white or rose gold. The title says certified and the details name IGI, which suits someone who wants both stated.

Our verdict

Suited to someone who wants a round 1.00 ct lab-grown center with a pave band of small stones and a certification named in the listing, at $1,750. Look elsewhere if you need a cut grade for the round center or a report number. The main caveat is that the 1.33 ctw total counts 14 side stones of .02 ct each.

Best for
Someone who wants a round lab-grown center with a pave band and IGI named in the listing.
Skip if
You need a cut grade for the center stone or want a plain solitaire without side stones.

Why 3.9/5: Lifted by a full spec sheet and by a title that states the diamond is certified, with IGI named in the details; held back by the missing cut grade for the round center and the lack of a report number.

Built around a round lab-grown center diamond of 1.00 ct, this pave ring adds 14 round side stones of .02 ct each, for 1.33 ctw across 15 stones. JNCY sells it in 14k yellow, white and rose gold, sizes 4 to 10, as 75 variants at $1,750 each. The title calls the diamond certified, and the diamond details name IGI along with colorless (D-E) color and VS2+ clarity.

Options and pricing

Three metals are listed, 14k yellow gold, 14k white gold and 14k rose gold, each in 25 sizes from 4 to 10, and every one of the 75 variants costs $1,750. Rhodium plating applies to the white gold version only. The listing gives a 1.8 mm width and a 2.27 g weight, and it does not name the metal that weight refers to.

How it compares

The 1.33 ctw Pear Lab Grown Diamond Classic Pave Engagement Ring lists the same $1,750 and 1.33 ctw with a pear center, and the 1.33 ctw Emerald Lab Grown Certified Diamond Pave Engagement Ring lists $1,800 with an emerald center. The 1.2 ctw Round Lab Grown Certified Diamond Floral Halo Engagement Ring shares the round center shape and lists $1,850 at 1.2 ctw.

Shipping, returns and warranty

JNCY ships by USPS at no cost and says in-stock items such as this one go out within one to four business days (FedEx 2Day is $25 on US orders). A signature is required on engagement rings, made-to-order designs and orders over $1,500. It also ships to Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, South Korea and the United Kingdom for a flat $50, with duties and taxes paid by the buyer. Returns: 30 days from the ship date for pre-designed styles returned unworn with their original documents, with a free FedEx label on US orders; the FAQ page says 7 days instead, so confirm before relying on 30. Warranty: free lifetime repair or replacement of manufacturing defects, one free resizing in the first year for standard ring sizes 4 to 10 (not eternity bands) and two free cleaning visits; wear and tear, lost stones and clearance items are excluded.

Before you buy

JNCY Jewelers is a Miami jeweler whose domain was registered in 2020. Independent feedback is thin: a ProvenExpert page lists three ratings, all 5.00, from Facebook and The Knot with no review text, and searches on 19 October 2026 found no Trustpilot or BBB page for the store. JNCY's own pages disagree in places: the refund window is 30 days on the Refund policy page and 7 days in the FAQ, and the custom-bridal page says it offers no financing while the financing page lists several plans. The listing mentions a diamond certificate; check the report number against the listing when the piece arrives and keep the paperwork, because JNCY charges $100 for a missing one on returns. Payments accepted include major cards, Affirm, Shop Pay and PayPal.

What we liked

  • Grades are listed for both the 1.00 ct center stone and the 14 side stones
  • IGI is named as the certification, and the title also calls the diamond certified
  • Stone count and weights are itemized: 15 stones, 1.33 ctw, .02 ct per side stone
  • One price of $1,750 for 3 metals and 25 sizes

Worth noting

  • No cut grade is listed for the round center stone; excellent cut appears only under the side stones
  • The listing gives no certificate number behind the IGI certification
  • The 2.27 g weight is not tied to one of the three metals

Questions before you buy

How many diamonds are in this round pave ring?

15 lab-grown diamonds: one round center of 1.00 ct and 14 round side stones of .02 ct each, for 1.33 ctw in total.

Does the listing say the round pave ring's diamond is certified?

The title calls it certified and the diamond details give IGI as the certification. The listing gives no report number.

What metals and sizes does the round pave ring come in?

14k yellow, white and rose gold, in sizes 4 to 10. All 75 variants cost $1,750, and rhodium plating is listed for white gold only.

Can I return it if I change my mind?

JNCY's Refund policy page gives 30 days from the ship date for pre-designed styles returned unworn with their original documents; US orders get a free FedEx label and international buyers pay return shipping. A missing diamond certificate costs $100. The FAQ page says refunds are possible for up to 7 days after delivery, so confirm the window before relying on 30 days.

How long until it ships?

JNCY says in-stock items ship within one to four business days by USPS at no cost, and FedEx 2Day costs $25 on US orders. Signature is required on engagement rings and orders over $1,500.

Does JNCY resize rings?

The warranty page offers one complimentary resizing within a year of purchase for standard ring styles in sizes 4 to 10, up or down one size, except eternity bands; larger changes may cost extra, and rings resized by another jeweler lose the warranty.

Are lab-grown diamonds real diamonds?

GIA says laboratory-grown diamonds have the same crystal structure as natural diamonds, tightly bonded carbon atoms, and nearly the same chemical, optical and physical properties. By eye the difference can be indistinguishable, but gemological laboratories can detect the different growth history with advanced instruments. They are grown by high-pressure high-temperature (HPHT) or chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

What we couldn’t verify

  • The round center stone has no cut grade, while the 14 side stones are listed as excellent cut.
  • One weight, 2.27 g, is listed without saying which of the three metals it applies to.
  • IGI is named as the certification, but the listing gives no report number.
  • Independent testing or appraisal: we found none for this piece; the only outside feedback is a ProvenExpert page with three 5.00 ratings (two Facebook, one The Knot) and no text.
  • JNCY's pages disagree on the refund window (30 days on the Refund policy page, 7 days in the FAQ).
  • We have not seen this piece's diamond certificate; the grades come from the listing.
