Diamond Jewelry Buying Tips

By Erwin Rostuzing

Diamond jewelry is the most sought after kind of jewelry out there, and let's be honest, you can only go so wrong with a diamond. However, diamonds are a major investment, and so when you are buying one, it makes sense to do some homework and make sure you are getting the best product you possibly can. A large part of choosing diamond jewelry comes down to going with a reputable jewelry. A good jeweler will walk you through the process of picking out a diamond that is within your budget and that you can feel confident in.

Choosing the Best Diamond - Where to Go

The first name in designer jewelry is of course the world renowned Tiffany and Co. Tiffany has been in the jewelry making business for over 150 years and their little blue boxes are an institution in the jewelry business.

The thing that Tiffany is best known for is in fact their diamond jewelry. They offer a stunning collection of jewelry in many different styles, setting and sizes and they have something for every taste and fashion sense. Whether you're looking for something new or antique style engagement rings, they will be able to accommodate. Tiffany jewelry is a favorite with celebrities and can be seen dripping from models in many high end fashion magazines

Kay Jewelry might not be quite as fancy or high end as Tiffany, but they are one of the leading manufacturers of diamond jewelry in the US. Kay is driven by customer service and customers can expect this top of the line service whether they shop in stores or online.

Kay is a division of the Sterling Jewelers Inc Company, which is a division of London based jewelers Signet Group. This group is the largest jewelry retailer in the world. They offer new innovative styles as well as antique style engagement rings and other jewelry.

What to Know Before You Buy

No matter which diamond retailer you decide to go to with your business, it is important that you take into account the quality, cut and size of the stone.

Likewise, it is important to check out the store itself before you hand over your hard earned cash. If you know people who have shopped there in the past, solicit their opinions. You can also check with the Better Business Bureau to see what kind of complaints the company has had. Make sure you ask the store about their credit plans and return policies, so you can finance your purchase at a good rate and can return the piece of jewelry if you need to with ease. Last but not least, get your jewelry appraised by an expert within the timeframe you have to return your jewelry. These experts are your last line of defense to help you purchase the perfect ring.
