Happy Stories From our customers

What a rock! What a shade of pink! Can you imagine this under the Christmas tree this year?

The Williamson diamond mine co-owned by Petra Diamonds and the Tanzanian government has done it again!

The mine, famously known of producing one of the biggest and most famous pink diamonds that exist – The Williamson Pink – the center piece in Queen Elizabeth’s Williamson Pink Diamond Brooch, is now responsible for one of the greatest finds in the pink diamonds industry – a massive 23.16 carat pink diamond that of “exceptional color and clarity”.

Update: the 23 carat pink diamond was sold for $10.05 Million!

Even though we specialize in high-end jewelry, we keenly understand that it isn’t the gift itself that matters as much but the intention behind it. Think of a young child offering a bouquet of daisies, for instance. It’s a precious gift because of the sweetness underneath it all.

If you’re still thinking of what to give that certain someone this holiday, remember that love comes in all packages that don’t necessarily require money.

How about these free (or really inexpensive) gift suggestions:

Time. For older people especially, a little company goes a long way. If there’s someone in your life that you know could stand some one-on-one time, make a point to sit down with him or her for a cup of tea and shared, kind words. Listen extra attentively (a gift in and of itself).

Letters or cards. While holiday card-giving seems to be waning in our virtual world, everyone likes to get a personalized letter or card in the mail. But kick it up a notch. Don’t just send a signed Hallmark card. Find something special and dare to write a personalized note detailing to the receiver just how important he or she is in your life. Add a little something to it, like a pressed flower or a found feather for an extra creative touch.

Shared meals. Cooking a meal together is a bonding and beautiful experience. If you haven’t scored all the presents you need for your friends and family this holiday, make a date and cook a meal for a small group of loved ones. Allow the guests to share in the process–people generally like taking part in making a meal, even if its just setting the table or taste testing the offerings.

The best part with these suggestions? They remind us that the holidays are about the love we feel for those in our life…something we can’t put a pricetag on!

Hi Joe,

I hope you are well. I just want to say thank you so much for my amazing ring. It is fabulous and has already received many compliments! It is exactly what I wanted and I cannot stop looking at it.

Thank you yet again for an amazing piece of jewellery and a wonderful experience all the way through.

Have a lovely Christmas,

Thank you for your amazing customer service so far. It’s been an absolute pleasure working with you on this and you have been so knowledgeable and patient with me. I’m beyond excited to get my dream ring!!! There has been quite a bit of saving and research that has gone into this project for the last few months and I’m very glad I didn’t settle for anyone less than the best :)

Note from Joe, Jen was helping E with a custom ring. Thanks E!

It’s a certain type of couple that go for winter weddings, especially those in those area where that white fluffy icy stuff falls from the sky (we live in Scottsdale, AZ; we forget the name). But one thing for sure? Winter weddings add a certain beauty that’s completely undeniable. Its a symbolic reminder that love burns bright even during the coldest, darkest hours. And heck…it’s just plain pretty.
