See them side by side
Photos can't show how a diamond moves in the light. Our GIA Graduate Gemologist will set out stones in your size and budget so you can compare them under the loupe, and our master jeweler makes your ring in our Clearwater workshop.
Is an asscher the same as a square emerald cut?
Close. An asscher has larger cut corners and a higher crown, which gives it the windmill pattern.
Do you have natural and lab-grown diamonds?
Both. We'll quote them side by side in the same shape and size so you can compare.
Can I see the ring before it's made?
Yes. You'll approve a CAD rendering or a wax model before anything is cast.
