We are also only one call away if you have any questions.
So what do the 4 C's stand for?
#1 The 4 C's are an outdated concept.
It was created 100 years ago, in the 1940s. The 4 C’s is an oversimplified concept. It’s a covert way of looking at over 200 characteristics when it comes to diamonds. The 4 C’s are a broad concept, you want to treat them BROADLY.
#2 The 4 C's are mostly marketing concepts.
They were created with the intention to sell more diamonds. One company owned 90% of the diamonds and as a result, they had a lot of influence on how the diamond industry was portrayed. AKA..they were ricchhhhh and had a lot of power.
De beers, a british company was ingenious in the marketing that surrounds everything we know about diamonds today. BUT IT WAS JUST MARKETING. They capitalized off of the concept that you should strive to be a diamond and that diamonds are only for those in high society — But clearly this is false.
A huge part of this is so you can truly figure out what is important for you when buying a diamond. What is important for you might not be important for someone else. We are here to help you figure out what makes sense for you, and help make the ring into a symbol that is meaningful to your love journey.
