Unsure Where To Start When It Comes To All About Buying Diamond Jewellery?

What's the best thing about diamonds? How about their endless sparkle, luxurious shine, and ability to make anyone feel like a princess? Well, it's true—diamond jewellery is an excellent investment, with its beautiful appearance and incredible beauty making it a top choice for any occasion. But what if you want to find out more about buying diamond jewellery? What if you want to know more about the best types of diamond, how they're set and where to buy them from?

Our extensive selection means there's something for everyone.

Can't Decide Which Style Of Diamond Jewellery Is The Right One?

Diamonds can be of all shapes and sizes, but each style comes with its own unique set of characteristics. There are 3 main types of diamond cuts: Round (oval), Rectangular (trapezoid) and Princess (square). They all feature a cut edge around the broadest part of the stone. There's a fourth category called Radiant Cut, which features no visible edge.

Round Diamonds are the most popular type of diamond, accounting for almost 70% of all diamonds produced. A round diamond is usually considered as any diamond with a shape that falls within the range of 58-66% of the total diameter of the stone. The best round diamond shapes are the brilliant, cushion and pear cut. Each has its own unique set of characteristics that make it ideal for specific jewellery designs.

If you want a diamond style with all the sparkle and fire of a brilliant-cut round diamond, then look at any shape with a brilliant cut. Brilliant-cut diamonds have around 58 facets, although some shapes and designs may vary slightly.

We offer many pieces of fine diamond jewellery with square-shaped diamonds that look different, larger than the same weight round diamond and have a touch of elegance.

If you are looking for something unusual, how about an emerald cut diamond. These can be rectangular or square in shape and are cut with fewer facets than the typical brilliant-cut diamond. Emerald cuts do not have the sparkle of a brilliant-cut. Still, they can have an intriguing glow and shimmer that looks quite different. Many people like to choose emerald cut diamonds styles that feature brilliant-cut diamonds as accent stones. This combination gives a blend of the expected sparkle and the lovely shimmer of the emerald cut.

The best option is to take a while to look through our collections. Check out the options available. You might be surprised by what our British designers and craftsmen have made available at very reasonable prices.

Jewellery Design Matters!

We believe everyone is unique so, why shouldn't your jewellery be too?

Our diamond jewellery is designed using quality diamonds and carefully crafted to ensure the shine and brilliance you deserve. You can find both classic and innovative designs from our collections to suit your taste.

Diamond jewellery is a perfect gift for every occasion. We offer different diamond jewellery in the UK to suit all budgets and tastes. We have a vast range of diamond jewellery that will meet your requirements. You can choose a diamond engagement ring or diamond bridal set, which will make a lasting impression on any occasion.

Does Diamond Size Really Matter?

In most cases, a smaller diamond would be more appropriate for someone with a smaller budget. The larger the diamond, the more it will cost to buy.

Many people go for an option to have reasonably sized central diamonds surrounded by a halo of smaller accent diamonds. Our craftsmen can expertly set the smaller diamonds very close together so that from a distance it looks like there is a single much larger stone. This gives the visual appeal of a larger diamond at a much lower cost. That's because smaller diamonds are lower in price per carat.

So, size does matter, but there are ways to get the impression, the sparkle and fire of a larger stone at a lower cost.

Is British Made Diamond Jewellery Better?

The best way to choose jewellery is to be honest with yourself about what you're looking for. You don't need to have an expensive watch or a ring to look great. If you want to look good at an event or a party, pick something you really like. It may not be an expensive piece, but it will look great as long as you choose well.

There is great jewellery made in many countries and if you like the piece and you fall in love with its quality and appearance then do not worry too much about where it is made. Our British artisans and designers are experts at creating diamond jewellery that fits British preferences for style and price.

That said, make sure that the precious metal is hallmarked correctly by a reputable assay laboratory and that you have a diamond grading certificate from a reputable diamond grading laboratory such as the GIA (Gemological Institute of America).

If the jewellery does not have a reputable certificate, you should probably not buy that piece!. There's one exception to this rule! Most reputable grading labs do not provide grading certificates for diamonds smaller than 0.5 carats. In that case, ensure that you buy from a reputable retailer such as All Diamond. We ensure that the smaller diamonds used in our jewellery are of the standard listed on the item's description.

All Diamond Is Here For You!

In conclusion, there are many things to consider when choosing jewellery. Most of these factors are personal to the buyer. Diamonds are among the most precious gemstones. They are used to symbolise love, faithfulness, and eternal commitment. For instance, an engagement ring for a bride represents a promise to marry. Diamond jewellery is an ideal wedding gift for any occasion.
