Solitaire

The solitaire setting is the most sober setting of all. If you want all the attention on your gemstone, this setting is the most appropriate. A solitaire setting can be performed with prongs or claws, but the diamond or gemstone can also be set in a pot or bezel or directly in the plate or metal. This is not performed by our master goldsmith but by our specialized solitaire setter. Yes, even the type of setting itself is also subdivided into all kinds of specializations. If you want your precious gemstone to be processed into a ring, pendant, earring or bracelet with the greatest craftsmanship, then you choose a workshop with more than thirty years of experience in the middle of the Antwerp diamond district.

In the Antwerp Jewish quarter

Antwerp is known for its diamonds industry and its Orthodox Jews. A few decades ago approximately eighty percent of Antwerp’s Jewish population used to make a living from the diamond industry. Apart from the gatherings in the diamond district and at the synagogue, Jews from Antwerp have lived mostly in different entities. The most recognizable community is that of the Haredi. After New York, London and Jerusalem, Antwerp is home to one of the largest ultra-Orthodox communities in the world.
