Antwerp Diamonds


 

With decades of experience in diamond purchasing and selling, we have acquired a wealth of knowledge on how to secure the best diamond values. We travel each year to Antwerp, Belgium-The diamond capital of the world. There, we personally select diamonds for our store, as well as specifically for our clients. This is a unique opportunity for us to buy directly from the world's best diamond cutters. This means exceptional savings and quality selection for you.

Located in north-central Belgium, Antwerp is home to thousands of the world's best diamond cutters and polishers. It is a city whose history is rich with diamond cutting, dating back to the 17th century. It was about this time that diamonds were discovered in South Africa, a discovery that led to an influx of significant amounts of rough diamonds to Europe. The majority of the diamonds flowed through Antwerp, and the city flourished. Today, it is estimated that 70% of the worlds' diamonds are cut, polished, and distributed there. Buying in Antwerp gives us the opportunity to purchase diamonds in the most direct manner possible. Our diamonds go directly from the mines, to the cutter, through us and then to you.

As a special service, we offer personal selection as your diamond broker. You simply choose the shape, size, cut, color, and clarity of the diamond you desire, and then with our expertise we personally select it for you at the greatest savings. Few jewelers can offer you the satisfaction of knowing that your diamond was carefully and personally selected from among the worlds' largest diamond collections. Few can offer you the warmth in knowing that your diamond made the shortest trip possible from the earth to your heart. We offer you both. If you are shopping for a diamond and are interested in learning more about our Antwerp diamonds, please contact us. We would love to be your personal jeweler.
