Our last article dealt with
the way in which the deals are done for the stones that finally end up as the
showstoppers in your favourite jewelry. We also read up about how the Diamond
District in New York came about. This article will look to find the main
reasons why NYC is the best place to buy your diamond jewelry.
Why NYC is the best place in
the world to buy diamonds?
There are few places on earth
that can go toe to toe with the Big Apple on any and all parameters. If Paris
is the gateway to European trends and fashion, Milan is the cutting edge
fashion capital of the world and Berlin is where the avant-garde resides… NYC
is by far the most cosmopolitan, stylish and all encompassing city of them all.
Little wonder then that NYC is one of the world’s top shopping destinations.
Saks 5th Avenue, Barney’s and
Sears are just some of the most iconic shopping meccas in the world. The Upper
East Side and the Village are hubs for the uber stylish to attend the latest in
gallery openings. Not to mention the culture and art scene characterized by
Broadway and Manhattan. Why then would this not be the perfect place to buy diamonds.
1) You are always assured of
new styles: NYC is one of the trendsetters in world fashion, by default then,
if there’s something particularly offbeat and eye catching you seek, this will
be the best place to get it! Fashion stylist Anne Bryce, has this to say, “when you think about style and fashion,
there are few places that compare to New York. With a vast majority of diamonds
in North America passing through NY’s diamond district and the sheer number of
establishments dealing in fine jewelry, it is almost assured you’ll find the
best pieces here!”
2) There’s something for
everyone: New York has something for everyone, in every sense of the word. If
you have a good time in mind, you could easily dine at the some of the world’s
best restaurants here, if you have the budget for it. Or you can simply grab a
hotdog in Central Park or Riverside. This is true in the case of diamonds as
well. Whether you want your lady to have a rock that will bowl her over and
make her the envy of her friends, or you’re looking at a modest sized stone,
the diamond district will have something for either end of the budgetary
spectrum.
3) It is called the Diamond
district for a reason: If you’re thinking about range, picture this, almost
2600 establishments, from the uber chic to the family owned jewelry businesses,
to firms that specialise in estate jewelry, the Diamond district has them all!
It is after all called the Diamond District!
Things to beware of when
shopping for diamonds in NYC
● Bright light makes everything white:
Examine the diamond in the natural light of day, outside the store to be sure
of its true colour
● Heavily marked down prices: If the price of
a diamond is too good to be true, it probably isn’t, beware of heavily marked
down prices
● Always ask to see the GIA certification of
the diamond: GIA certified diamonds are worth the price, because you’re paying
for what you can see in writing
● Beware of fake, artificial or lookalike
stones
