Typical settings for diamonds use prongs with a framework behind the diamond to hold it. This restricts the brilliance of the diamond to just the front of the stone. A Floating Diamond setting utilizes a laser drilled microscopic hole. The hole is drilled through the edge of the stone and a platinum ring Is then attached. Thus allowing the diamond to hang freely, creating refraction, reflection an
d brilliance at all angles of the stone. This enables a maximum sparkle effect. I travel the country in search of the best sources for diamonds. From pawn shops, to jewelry stores, liquidation and insurance replacement companies. I attend some of the largest estate, antique and jewelry shows in World seeking out diamonds most dealers ignore. The broken, chipped, odd and off cuts, the uglies!! Being a Diamond Cutter for 34 years, I can cut, grind, reshape and polish these into beautiful diamond gemstones. Whether they are for my Floating Diamond collection or Engagement Rings, I buy diamonds at significantly lower prices than your typical jewelry store. These savings I can then pass on to you.
