I'm not usually impressed with Affinity's white diamonds. But I just saw their offering of a yellow diamond and a pink. First of all it's not enhanced. They included the word "natural" in the description. They were a tad paler then what I see in Gem Shopping and I saw a lot of colored diamonds there. I thought they were pretty good. I would not buy if it did not included a gem certificate. You can't really tell about Affinity because it's always on QVC and they always offer the same grade of diamonds. Color: H 2I etc.

I saw a pink and yellow pave diamond ring being offered, but, there was not much color to the diamonds from what I could see. The only color was in the pave setting. Rose gold in the pink diamond and yellow gold in the yellow diamond.

I watched the presentation with Michele. The diamond rings were pretty, but I find most QVC diamonds priced a bit high for the quality. I would buy those rings only because I thought they were stylish and I really wanted to wear them, not because they are any kind of investment or heirloom. Large single stones always have more value than the pave design. You do not really need a certificate for pave. I do really like a 3 carat pave ring QVC sells, but it is sold out in all sizes except 5, so it will just have to stay on my wishlist.

Affinity uses clarity I2, as compared to Sonia Bitton and Bev Hills Elegance who use SI

With I2, does that mean there could be visible black spots when using a 10x triplet loupe?

I2 means a diamond that has inclusions visible to the naked eye @Kalli . The average consumer will see them without a loupe.
Beware of some of the experts on QVC claiming they are clean. They are anything but and in the industry they are considered commercial quality.

You get what you pay for. The pieces open up the world of colored, natural diamonds at a more affordable price point. JTV has some, too.

Neither of those brands use SI on the Shophq jewelry. SI2 and SI3

Several years ago, I took a chance and bought an Affinity diamond tennis bracelet as I've never owned one.
I love it.
It's only 3.30 carats, but the diamonds are VS and a color grade of H. Pretty enough for me and the price was great.
It's 18K white gold which makes the diamonds sparkle even more it seems.
