Wholestone Jewellery is developing a number of collections to feature lab grown diamonds which will be available online from Autumn 2024 along with the launch of a new online store. We also work with clients on bespoke pieces of jewellery including engagement rings, wedding rings, eternity rings, earrings, pendants etc. We have a wide range of wedding band designs made to order in all widths, size
s and metals to give the bride and groom plenty of choice. We are meeting the changing demands of the industry and now sourcing both Lab Grown and Natural Mined Diamonds according to our customer's requests. If you're looking to source just a loose stone, we can also help. Much of our business is generated by the personal recommendation of our customers. We do not keep large stocks or have a presence on the high street and are therefore able to offer competitive pricing due to our reduced overheads. Contact us directly if you wish to discuss your requirements and we will do our best to help.

Things to consider when buying a diamond. You may have heard of the 4Cs in the jewellery trade when it comes to diamonds. When comparing prices from outlet to outlet, prices can vary widely for similar looking diamond rings. The 4Cs however hold the key to what may be behind these variations in price. The 4Cs first established by the GIA stand for CUT - CLARITY - COLOUR - CARAT WEIGHT as follows
CUT - the quality of the cut is what really produces the brilliance and sparkle of a diamond
CLARITY - Natural diamonds contain small inclusions and blemishes. The fewer there are, the more desirable and valuable the stone. These are graded FL/Flawless down a scale to I3/Included3
COLOUR - Natural diamonds vary in colour. The closer they are to being colourless, the higher their value (with the exception of fancy colours)
CARAT - The weight used for diamonds and gemstones. 1.0 carats = 0.20gr. For more information visit the original creators of the 4Cs here. http://www.gia.edu/gia-about
Jewellery containing diamonds can be offered with stones supplied with a certificate issued by the GIA supporting the true facts as measured by the GIA in their laboratory for that stone. This isn't essential but worth a discussion with us.
