History of Diamond International Trade in Antwerp

Antwerp, known as the "City of Diamonds," or known as Diamond International trade in Antwerp, has been a major diamond trading center since the 15th century. Its strategic location and skilled craftsmen attracted traders and jewellers, establishing it as a hub for the diamond industry. Today, Antwerp continues to be a global leader in diamond trade and craftsmanship.


Diamond Education: The 4 C's


Understanding the 4 C's of diamonds is essential for making an informed purchase. These four characteristics determine a diamond's quality and value:

  • Carat Weight: This refers to the size of the diamond. One carat equals 200 milligrams. Larger diamonds are rare and often more valuable.

  • Cut: The cut of a diamond affects its brilliance. A well-cut diamond reflects light beautifully, enhancing its sparkle. The cut is graded from Excellent to Poor.

  • Color: Diamonds are graded on a color scale from D (colorless) to Z (light color). Colorless diamonds are the most sought after and typically more expensive.

  • Clarity: Clarity measures the presence of internal or external flaws, known as inclusions and blemishes. The clarity scale ranges from Flawless (no inclusions) to Included (visible flaws).
