As diamond and jewelry experts, we've taken our commitment to the next level by becoming Worldwide Diamond Importers. Once a year, we travel to Antwerp, Belgium, considered to be the Diamond Capital of the World, to personally select diamonds directly from the cutters. Quite literally, any quality, weight, cut or shape of diamond can be found in Antwerp, so if the gift of a diamond is something you are considering for someone you love (possibly yourself!), we urge you to choose from the hand-selected diamonds in our inventory or take advantage of our services as your personal broker during our next excursion.

RJO jewelers are required to meet the highest standards in the industry, including honesty, integrity, and value, because it is owned and operated by its jeweler members.

And you thought platinum was the hot NEW metal? From The Platinum Guild’s website: Platinum is found in meteorites which crashed to earth 2 billion years ago. Since then this rare metal has made appearances throughout history, re-emerging in the 1700s to fascinate kings and alchemists. Platinum grew in popularity in the 19th and 20th centuries and today is the precious metal of choice of movie stars and the glitterati.
