Questions are a natural part of commissioning bespoke fine jewelry. Explore answers to our most frequently asked questions below. If you need further assistance, Bella Andrea personally reviews every inquiry.
Bella Andrea & Co.™ proudly works with both select natural diamonds and exceptional laboratory-grown diamonds.
Our natural diamonds are GIA graded and individually selected for rarity, beauty, brilliance, and overall visual quality. We do not rely on clarity grade alone; every stone is carefully screened for eye cleanliness, inclusion placement, transparency, cut quality, and overall performance.
Our laboratory-grown diamonds are exclusively CVD grown and IGI graded. Each diamond is individually evaluated for brilliance, transparency, crystal quality, cut precision, and overall beauty before being offered to a client.
Whether natural or laboratory-grown, every diamond must meet The Bella Andrea & Co.™ Standard—nothing less than extraordinary.
Every commission begins with a private consultation. We discuss your vision, select the ideal diamond, refine the design, and oversee every stage of production through completion.
Most bespoke commissions are completed within several weeks after the design has been finalized. Timelines vary depending on design complexity and center stone availability.
Yes. Eligible center stones include an independent grading report from either GIA for natural diamonds or IGI for laboratory-grown diamonds.
Every completed custom commission also includes a Bella Andrea & Co.™ Commission Certificate of Authenticity, documenting the details of the finished piece.
All diamonds are additionally screened and evaluated by Bella Andrea & Co.™ beyond the information stated on the laboratory report.

Bella Andrea & Co.™ works with trusted suppliers and requires transparency regarding the origin and sourcing of every diamond we offer. All natural and laboratory-grown diamonds are carefully screened and sourced through established industry partners committed to responsible practices.
Independent appraisals may be arranged upon request. Grading reports and Bella Andrea & Co.™ documentation are provided where applicable, but clients should confirm their insurer’s specific appraisal and documentation requirements.
All in-stock jewelry and custom commissions are final sale. Due to the specialized nature of fine jewelry, we do not accept returns, refunds, exchanges, or cancellations once payment has been received or production has begun.
Every Bella Andrea & Co.™ commission is individually quoted based on the center stone, precious metal, design complexity, and craftsmanship involved.
We work with a wide range of budgets—from elegant everyday pieces to extraordinary one-of-a-kind creations. Before any work begins, you’ll receive a detailed quotation outlining all costs with no hidden fees or surprises.
Our goal is to provide exceptional value while never compromising on quality, craftsmanship, or the diamonds we select.

By working directly with trusted diamond suppliers and master jewelers, we’re able to offer exceptional craftsmanship, carefully selected diamonds, and personalized service without many of the overhead costs associated with conventional jewelry stores.
