Loose Diamond FAQ's

💎Are loose diamonds cheaper?

Whilst not technically cheaper, selecting a loose diamond gives you more control over the specific qualities of the diamond. You can make big savings using this approach, playing with the grades until you find a beautiful diamond that suits your budget. You can also decide how much of your budget you want to assign to the diamond, and how much will be spent on the setting.

💎Can my loose diamond go in any setting?

Within reason. Some settings are designed to hold a specific diamond shape. Others, such as a 3-prong, will not be stable enough to hold larger diamonds (3.00ct and above). The good news is that we hold a huge collection of exquisitely designed settings for diamonds of every shape and carat weight. If the setting you like does not fit with your loose diamond, we can create a custom setting just for you.
