“Will you marry me?”He asked. Then he opened the box. She
looked and there she saw their future as clear as the sixteen carat diamond
embedded in its precious platinum metal envelope. A “yes” he hoped for just as he earlier asked
his friend if he knew any of stores with diamonds in New York.
These sentiments are in many cases attempted with a small
box which houses the hopes of many men that are placed in a well cut diamond
that represents the hope that their intended recipients will accept the
gesture.
Diamonds have since long been used as tokens of promise,
friendships and as a sign of endearing eternal love. These gift ideas are not confined to the notion
that men give diamonds to women but, also the other way around. Diamond encrusted watches have in recent
times become a new fashion fad among men of all sects. Chains, rings, pendants and bracelets are
some of the types of jewelry that seem to cross the gender borders when the
moment arises. Women on the other hand
would in many cases love to have their beds completely covered in these
precious polished gems in any form along with roses or any other preferred
fauna. A bottle of wine wouldn’t hurt
either.
Many patrons of the stones buy them in order to create their own memories either by bestowing it on a soul mate, strengthening a friendship or reminding someone that they are forever there and will continue to be. Diamonds in New York have visited many places in the world, especially cathedrals or any other place that people say to each other, “I am yours forever.”
These precious stones come in a wide range of colors and
shapes and are in most cases priced in terms of what diamond traders call the four
C’s. These include: carat, cut, clarity
and color. Famous stores in the “Big Apple” are famous for their
fine quality diamonds in New York
that are imported from the finest traders worldwide. The famous 47 th Street in Manhattan
is said to be responsible for highlighting New York as the Diamond capital of
the western world.
Diamonds are envied for their finished beauty and the
stories that conceptualize their existence.
Most famous diamonds have evolved from famous love stories or great
empires that passed leaving behind magnificence and a memory.
If you are planning to visit New York anytime before
Christmas, be sure to take a look around its Diamond District. Located in New York City on West 47th Street
linking Fifth Avenue
and Sixth Avenue,
it is the ideal place for all your special gifts shopping. This is the one of
the primary centers of the global diamond industry, making it the ‘it’ place
for buying loose diamonds and diamond jewelry. It is believed that over 90
percent of diamonds that enter the country go through the Diamond District to
other dealers and retailers all over the country. This translates into loose
diamonds being cheapest as compared to any reputable retail jewelry store, and
the consumer getting the widest choice. This being said, if you want to buy diamonds in New York there may be a few things to keep in mind
before jumping into a cab to get there.
You should be prepared to spend a lot of
time in the area. If you just have an hour or two to spare and expect to get a
priceless diamond, it won’t happen, unless you have already chosen a
trustworthy diamond trader to deal with. Those who do not do their homework,
simply have to rely on their luck and patience to find the desired diamond at
the right price. The ‘homework’ refers to finding a reputable diamonds trading
company that ensures high quality diamonds at an affordable price. If you have
no idea or references, simply search for official websites online and shortlist
a few. There are many diamonds traders in NYC that even have diamond
connoisseurs to educate and advice customers. These are the companies you
should consider.
Another bit to do is, know the basics of
diamonds and diamond buying. Once you know about the 4 Cs and what makes a
diamond beautiful and valuable, the rest is just a numbers game. All you need
to do is have a rough budget in mind, decide the cut and other specifications
of the diamond you are
interested in buying, and then alone start the hunt. Many buyers make the
mistake of settling for the first stone that fulfills their requirements.
Instead of this, it may be wise to look at a few that you like and then compare
them to end up with the best diamond. Be sure to compare prices and not refrain
from asking any question that may pass through your mind. For example, ask why
a particular diamond is costing more than another with similar grading and certification.
Rest assured that if you do the research
beforehand, you will end up with the best
diamonds in New York, for a
price that is lesser than anywhere else in the country.

Out of all the rare

because they are so rare in nature. The

know where the diamond is pure and worth the money you’re paying for it.
If you ask any girl what
her most prized piece of jewelry is, the answer at least 90 out of a 100 times
is an engagement ring or wedding ring. And what is a prerequisite for an
engagement ring or wedding ring design? Well, diamonds of course. No piece of
jewelry can compare to the beauty of a diamond ring. Whether it is a simple
solitaire diamond ring, an eternity band with a multitude of small but
brilliant diamonds, or exclusive 5
diamond bands in New York, if it wasn’t for the diamonds the rings
would simply not look as good. Today, most of us own a diamond solitaire
pendant, solitaire ring or pair of earrings. So, what should be your next
diamond buy? Well, your collection won’t be complete without a 5 diamond band.
5 diamonds bands are
gaining due popularity these days as anniversary gifts, and they are apt for
any kind of celebration from your mother’s birthday to your daughter’s
graduation. If you are looking for some reasons to convince you to buy a ring
in a 5 diamond band design, read on.
Let’s think back to why
women like rings more than other pieces of jewelry. The first reason is that
rings are worn on the fingers and can constantly be seen by the wearer. This
cannot be true of other jewelry items such as earrings and pendants. There is a
simple but great pleasure in admiring something beautiful and valuable you
wear. Plus, the diamonds always add beauty to the hand and make it look more
attractive. Another reason is that rings are easy to show off. Since women move
their hands quite a bit when having a conversation, these small brilliant
beauties are easy to flaunt. Also, diamond earrings or elaborate necklaces or
pendants are not generally worn everyday, while a diamond ring can be a part of
her daily wear. This is also one of the biggest advantages. Wouldn’t you just
love it if your mother, wife or daughter wore the diamond ring each day and was
reminded of you each time she glanced at it?
Once you have made up your
mind about buying this design, be prepared for the overwhelming choices in
front of you. Remember that the diamond shape plays a very major role in the
way the ring will look, so choose wisely. The other factor that affects the
look of the design is the type of setting. Do your research and see your
choices before making up your mind.
If you are buying 5
diamond bands in New York¸ make sure you source from a celebrated
diamond trader that can provide you with adequate certification for the jewels.
Also ensure that you buy good quality diamonds and choose superior grades in
terms of clarity, cut, and color, as these factors affect the overall beauty
and brilliance of the stones.
If you are a style addict,
one of the most important priorities for you must be to follow current trends in
clothes as well as jewelry fashion. As far as jewelry is concerned, these days
it is all about colored rare diamonds in New
York, whether we are talking about an A list red carpet event or a
charity fund raiser. While you may have colorless diamond jewelry by every
known designer in town, you are not going to make news unless you have at least
one signature colored diamond piece in your trinket box.
With colored diamonds
available in a huge array of colors such as orange, brown, yellow, pink, black,
red, blue, green, champagne, grey, purple, and many more, you can bet to find
the color you absolutely love. Just as white diamonds, colored diamonds come in
a huge variety of shapes and cuts to enhance the beauty and appeal of every
jewelry piece. You can find colored diamonds at retail jewelry stores or with
online diamond traders, but to find ones that will be talked about and one of a
kind, you will have to put in some time to find the ideal diamonds traders to
buy the jewels from.
Many a times, you already
have a favorite diamond jewelry piece, and all you want changed are the
diamonds, from colorless to colored. In such cases it is best to find diamond
traders or wholesalers that offer loose diamonds for sale. Rest assured that many
do. In fact, you may also find some select diamond trading companies that take
on the responsibility of changing the diamonds for you or making the
exact piece with colored diamonds. All you need is to find a dependable and
trustworthy company in town. Go with a name that is reputable and is known for
its service in your societal circle.
Nowadays, style is all about being different
from the run of the mill. Jewelry designs and diamonds are no exception. The
rarer the color, the more exclusive and valuable is the diamond. There are many
celebrities that even choose to set the diamond in its unpolished form. These
naturally beautiful stones are head-turners as pendants and even signature
rings. While such styles are apt for the young and edgy fusionistas, the ones
who want their jewelry to exude elegance go for conventional cuts and shapes
but opt for larger carat weights. However, if your focus is to get your hands
on some rare
diamonds in New York regardless of color, think of a budget before you
start looking around. The city has more than a few good diamond traders
offering fine diamonds, and with things that possess such hypnotizing beauty it
is almost natural to go a little overboard.
