How long have we been trading?
- We've been trading our luxury jewellery online since 2009 but our skilled jewellers have over 25 years of experience. We’re also members of the British Jewellers’ Association as well as being an Assay Assured Retailer.
-
How are our prices so low?
- We have strong relationships with around 80% of the world’s diamond suppliers which means we can buy our diamonds directly from the source while many high street shops use wholesalers which can add cost to the process.
- Our skilled jewellers also manufacture all of our jewellery in house so again we cut out the cost of manufacturers and wholesalers here.
- Another reason is that we’re an online based business. We don’t have lots of high street stores to run so we have lower overheads.
- All of these factors mean we can offer stunning jewellery at lower prices.
-
Where do we buy our diamonds?
- Our diamonds are sourced from all over the world including India, USA, Israel and Belgium. Every diamond we buy is ethically sourced, conflict free and purchased from suppliers who comply with the United Nations Kimberley Process. This means you don’t need to worry about the origin of your stunning diamond jewellery.

What is the difference between the SDC, GIA and IGI certificates?
- GIA and IGI are generally recognised as the most respected and prestigious independent grading labs in the world. It is mostly accepted in the jewellery industry that IGI and GIA set the standard when it comes to diamond grading and not all labs are as strict. For those reasons IGI and GIA certified diamonds tend to be sold at with a higher price than diamonds graded by other labs. SDC certified diamonds do generally provide excellent quality and value for money.
