Happy Stories From our customers

You may have heard the phrase “hearts and arrows” in relation to a diamond but probably didn’t know exactly what is meant by it. That’s all right. We’re here to school you!

When a diamond is viewed from the top (or the crown), an ideally cut diamond should display eight symmetrical arrows. When viewed from the bottom, that same diamond should display eight symmetrical hearts.

An extreme level of cutting precision is required for this type of symmetrical patterning and should showcase superior material quality, light performance and precise optical symmetry. But in the real world, a perfectly cut diamond that conform to these exact deadlines rarely exists. Even the top 0.1% of all round brilliant cuts will exhibit some form of minor variations. (Suggestion: always pay more attention to the patterning of the hearts, since it requires super precise facet placement and proportion.

Regardless of what your jeweler tells you about their diamonds, always verify details yourself.

Hi Margie,

You’ve done it. Your friends are doing it. Even strangers are doing it.

What is it?

Wearing a needless plastic applicator on the back of your earrings. No, that little plastic thingie doesn’t keep your earring more securely in place. And it doesn’t protect you from sagging earlobes. Get this: that plastic thingie is just packaging! This video gives you a quick tutorial on how to remove the packaging and wear your earrings plastic free!

Why own a two-tone piece of jewelry? 

Well first, it’s eye-catching. The combination of white and yellow gold (as shown in the videos below) can really showcase the shape and design of your ring. It’s the subtlety of the two shades working together that help distinguish separate parts of the ring.

Two tone jewelry also never goes out of style. (In this case, yellow gold is a classic favorite while white gold is currently trending but eternally captivating.)

Lastly, two tone metals remind us that the old rule that “metals should never mix” is simply not true. Instead, the power of each metal is enhanced by one  another, not diminished.

What’s your two-tone jewelry dream? Share it with us and we’ll create a wearable reality just for you!
