Best Diamond Jeweler

[Gina212]

Hi Ladies,

So I am looking into upgrading my ring and am starting to plan now. I know about James Allen (which is my first choice) and Henri Daussi (I am not sure if I like the cushion cut he makes but he is less expensive). I wanted to know what other choices there are.

I wanted to know if there are any other diamond jewelers that you recommend. Thanks!

I am looking for a cushion cut, ideally a modified cushion. However I like Daussi because he cuts his stones shallow so they look bigger.

Depends on what you're looking for. But in general, I like Good Old Gold, High Performance Diamonds (Crafted by Infinity specific stones), and I think Brian Gavin Diamonds has nice stones as well. For cushions you can look at the August Vintage style from Good Old Gold, and Engagement Rings Direct also is known for being fantastic with cushions, and has their own style cut as well.

I would suggest looking at stones from Christopher Designs

http://www.christopherdesigns.com/

He does a special cut with extra facets called a crisscut.

My emerald cut stone was cut by Christopher and it's amazing.

I believe the cushion cut done by Christopher is 77 facets vs the traditional 58 facet cushion.

On Pricescope Victor Canera is a favorite and is constantly recommended for his beautiful and very exact craftsmanship, knowledge and service.
I also think it depends on what particular style you have in mind. If you go for micropavé I think Victor is an excellent choice. His rings are just TDF!
