Impressive

This item makes a strong impression.

Very Good

Tablesize between 52 and 53% or between 63 and 66%, Crown height between 11 and 11.5% or between 16.5 and 18%, Pavilion depth between 41.5 and 42.5% or 45%

Marquise

The particular cut of a stone is mostly a pragmatic choice. The shape of the uncut, rough diamond gives the first indication of the most efficient cut/shape. Cutting a round stone out of an oblong rough diamond, would we very wastefull. A suitable shape for this situation is the marquise. Having roughly the same amount of facets as the brilliant cut, the marquise is more difficult to cut because of the fragile, sharp points.

Something that is given with love should be made with love. A creation is made especially for you by a designer with a thorough understanding of precious metals such as gold and platinum.

Choosing a piece of jewelry as a gift or as a promise of lifelong commitment and love is not something you should take lightly. Inform yourself well in advance and colaborate with someone with experience and expertise.

An ethically responsible

Today we realize, you as a consumer and we as a designer, that by buying or trading we can contribute to, or not contribute to, systems or organizations that do not act ethically correctly. The world is of course more complex than how some politicians and journalists want to portray it. We choose to help unite. As a diamond dealer and as a studio active in the multicultural Jewish quarter in Antwerp, we want to make a positive contribution to society. We think that if you want to unite the world, it's best to start at the beginning. That two individuals choose us for the creation of their wedding rings, the symbol for the ultimate promise of loyalty and commitment between two people, is therefore, each time again, a great honor for us.

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.
