Diamonds are at the heart of what we do
In our workshop we make every kind of diamond jewellery: solitaire, five-stone, baguette, full and half eternity rings, wedding bands, stud and drop earrings, solitaire and tennis necklaces, tennis bracelets. You can choose a ready design or describe the piece you have in mind; we make both with the same care, only for you.
The stone we use is the lab-grown diamond: a real diamond with the same chemistry, hardness and light as a mined diamond. Every stone comes with its certificate details. What is a lab-grown diamond?
We also make gold and silver jewellery in the same workshop; but what we know best is turning a diamond into the piece of jewellery it deserves.
Every step of production in our own workshop
We do not outsource a single step. From the design desk to the box, your ring stays under the same roof and passes through the same team’s hands:
- Design: The model is drawn around the shape and carat of the stone.
- Stone selection: The diamond is chosen by its cut, colour and clarity grades.
- Mounting: The gold body is laser cut, sized, then shaped by soldering and finishing.
- Setting: The stone is seated in its mount by the setter’s hand and secured with prongs.
- Polishing: The metal is brought to the mirror finish that reflects the diamond’s light.
- Rhodium and plating: White gold pieces receive their final colour in the rhodium bath.
- Inspection and packaging: Every piece is checked one by one before it reaches you.
Since 2020, from the Grand Bazaar to the world
