I ordered an earring and it's a very pretty earring however it is extremely small. Like ridiculously so, that being said I'm happy with the purchase and it's my own fault for not checking now that being said if someone is spending $400 usd for one earring it shouldn't be the size of your pinky finger nail. Also the insane amount of packaging that talks about engagement rings when I ordered an earring. I can't even gift it in the nice packaging without them thinking I might propose. (No I don't want compensation or a reply or a discount and this is just my experience)

This is a difficult review for me to write since I have a lot of conflicting feelings about my experience with StarlandUS. Here’s my experience: I fell in love with his moonstone engagement rings on Etsy and couldn’t get them out of my head. I was nervous about trusting an online shop with such an important purchase because I know that some Etsy sellers buy stuff on AliBaba and scam people. Ultimately, I couldn’t find any other ring nearly as gorgeous as StarlandUS’s, and ran his pictures through reverse image search to see if they were lifted from somewhere else. Nothing showed up and the reviews were all glowing, so I decided to take the plunge. I loved his triple moon double ring set and ordered the molds to see if I liked the size. They are $50 and if you decide to go through with the rings, the $50 goes to your purchase. I wanted the main ring to be raised in case I want to stack my wedding ring under it in the future. I requested this for the molds, along with a non stacking version just to test both out. When I got the molds, I received the ring I wanted but non-stacking, and a completely different ring that was stacking. I thought that was weird but didn’t give it that much thought, I loved the ring and wanted to move forward. I told him I want the ring I loved but stacking. I was under the impression everything was clear and understood. Since moonstone is fragile, I also ordered an extra set of stones in case they break in the future. Turn around time was pretty quick for the ring. When I got the package, I saw the ring was not stacking, it was missing the extra set of stones I ordered, and the stones themselves were pretty colorless. I was absolutely gutted. The ring’s craftsmanship was gorgeous, but I was utterly disappointment over the many things wrong with it. I reached out to the shop and demanded to get a replacement, get the stones I paid for, and more colorful moonstones. He was actually very quick to respond, apologetic, and very understanding. He sent me a return label and had me send back the ring free of charge. I had a feeling something else would happen, so I asked for a CAD before getting the ring shipped. I learned about this through Reddit, if I knew about CADs I would’ve done that at first to prevent the original issue. When he sent me the CAD, it was of a completely different ring but stacking, the same one from the mold. I was really frustrated. At this point, I started getting the feeling that this random ring is the default for his stacking rings. I also realized that clearly English is not his first language and he was struggling to understand me. I tried to make it as clear as possible I wanted the original ring, but stacking. He sent me a new CAD with the design I wanted, I finally felt better. When I got the new ring, this time it was everything I dreamed of and the order was right. It was absolutely gorgeous. It was stacking and the moonstones had a very deep, beautiful color to them. I got the replacement set too. I’ve now worn the ring (while taking care of it of course) for several months now and it looks as gorgeous as it did on day 1. I think I can confidently say that it truly is solid white gold, as there has been no signs of tarnish, which is something I was really worried about. The only issue is unfortunately that the ring is too big on me, even though I measured my size correctly. But both of the ones I got were consistently the same size, so maybe his sizer is off, I don’t know. But this is the least of my issues and it’s something that’s easily fixed. Ultimately, it has been a bittersweet experience. A lot went wrong initially but the ring itself is a gorgeous work of art. I am very happy and over the moon with it, still the most gorgeous ring I’ve ever seen, and I get compliments on it constantly. Although, I do have that unfortunate negative initial memory and still the remaining lingering anxiety of being possibly scammed (even though there’s no proof of that at the moment). My recommendation is to go for it if you love his stuff, as it is beautiful work, but ask for the CAD before ordering anything and be absolutely sure that they understand what you want.
