Definitely! We are able to accommodate out-of-town clients with either Zoom or FaceTime appointments, please inquire for more details.

Verstolo insures every item while it is in your possession, so you can enjoy the jewelry worry-free with peace of mind. You do not need to take out any additional insurance, as any loss or problem that occurs will be covered under our policy. Of course, we still ask that you treat the jewelry as if it were your own while it is in your possession.

Once you’ve decided which item(s) you would like to rent, we require 50% of the rental price as a deposit to reserve them for the dates of your event. The other 50% is due 1-2 weeks before your event. If you are reserving less than 30 days prior to your event, full payment is required.

Our rental period is 5 days (Thursday – Monday), but we always try to accommodate for special circumstances. You can arrange to pick-up and drop-off your items in person or have them shipped to and from the destination of your choice (shipping is also fully insured).

Our jewelry is rented on a first come, first serve basis and we carry very few duplicate items. The earlier you reserve, the better chance you are able to pick your preferred pieces.

Yes! All of our rental items are available for purchase. If you fall in love with a piece you’ve rented, your rental fee will go toward the final purchasing price.

Of course! We have a large selection of wedding bands you can see in our showroom. Link to Wedding Band Page. We can also custom make any item of your choice.

We can appreciate that an expensive jewelry purchase is not always an option and we don’t want that to hinder you from experiencing the luxury of wearing the perfect jewelry for life’s biggest moments.

Each piece of jewelry is cleaned via our high-powered ultrasonic machine and then steamed to ensure removal of any bacteria and to provide maximum sparkle.

Either email info@verstolo.com for specific availability or we will discuss during your consultation.

Lab-created diamonds are diamonds that are ‘grown’ in a lab using advanced technology that mimics the growing process of a diamond in the ground.

Lab-created and naturally mined diamonds are identical in appearance and composition. The brilliance is identical, the look is identical, the only difference is where the diamond originated. You can find more information about lab grown diamonds here.

No, there is no visible difference between natural and lab grown diamonds. The only way to truly see if a diamond is lab-created or earth-created is with a special machine. The difference cannot be detected with a standard jewelers’ loupe.

Better is not the right word as it really depends. Lab-created diamonds get graded in the same way that mined diamonds get graded, with the same 4 C’s. Lab-created offer a way to maximize your budget as they are less expensive than earth-created diamonds. They are able to provide up to 50% more size for the same budget. Earth-created diamonds are timeless, traditional and are nature’s works of art.

Yes! Just like with earth-created diamonds and jewelry we offer independent appraisals and laboratory certificates.
