Pear

The pear is a brilliant-cut diamond in the shape of a teardrop: a single point and rounded end. It’s a popular choice for a variety of jewellery, most notably pendants and earrings. By choosing an elongated pear shape, the lenght of the fingers is accentuated. For a traditional pear-shaped diamond, the length-to-width ratio should be around 1.5:1.

Natural diamond

Because of the traditional and romantic meaning it has as a symbol of love and connection we only sell natural diamonds. They have a higher value and are exclusive because natural diamonds are formed in the earth under unique conditions and are very rare, which increases their exclusivity and value. Natural diamond forms deep inside the earth as a result of tectonic pressures 100s of kilometers below the earth's surface. They, as a consequence of their growth environment, are varied and unique. Despite being more pure than other natural crystals, they contain many different impurities incorporated from the environment during the long, slow growth process. Natural diamonds also often have a unique and unpredictable brilliance and color. Diamond producers we are working with also do everything they can to mine and process their diamonds in a responsible and ethical manner.

Pink

Pink diamonds are not formed in two steps like regular 'white' diamonds, but in three. One of the world's most precious diamonds has a pink color. The gemstone, weighing no less than sixty carats, adorned the tiara of the wife of the Shah of Iran in 1959, during their royal wedding. The diamond is said to have come from a mine in India. How pink diamonds get their color is not yet fully understood. Regular, 'white' diamonds are formed deep in the earth's surface, where pure carbon, under immense pressure, arranges itself into the typical crystal structure of diamond. Then another geological process – a volcano, for example – is needed to bring the stones closer to the Earth's surface, where they can be mined. But with so-called colored diamonds, an extra step is required, which gives the stones color. Various hypotheses are circulating about this. New research from Australian geologists now appears to confirm one of these hypotheses. Based on analyzes of pink diamonds and (other) soil material from the Argyle diamond mine, located in the northwest of Australia, they conclude that the extra step in coloring the diamonds is in fact an intermediate step. Pink diamonds would certainly get their color when ordinary diamonds again had to deal with enormous compressive forces. It concerns forces of earth's plates that collide and rub against each other. Only then would the discolored diamonds begin their journey to the Earth's surface. At the Argyle mine, which has long been the main source of pink diamonds, geologists were also able to date two of the three steps in diamond formation. About 1.8 billion years ago, existing diamonds in the deep subsurface would have turned pink under the influence of tectonic forces. At that time, two tectonic plates collided with each other, forming a continent. When that broke up 1.3 billion years ago, it created space for the pink diamonds to migrate upwards.

Solitaire

The word "solitaire" refers to the fact that only one stone is placed in the setting. The solitaire setting is therefore the most sober setting of all. It gives a simple and classic look. If you want all the attention on your gemstone, this setting is the most appropriate. There are several types of solitaire settings, including the tiffany setting, which has a high setting that protects the stone and increases the brilliance of the stone, and the cathedral setting, which features metal arches that hold the stone. A solitaire setting can therefore be performed with prongs or claws, but the diamond or gemstone can also be bezel set in a pot or case or directly in the plate or metal. This is not performed by our master goldsmith but by our specialized solitaire setter. Yes, even the typesetting 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.
