European Diamond Buying Journey Means Bigger, Better Engagement Rings for Plymouth Couples

PLYMOUTH, Ind. - Sept. 21, 2017 - PRLog -- "Any time you're creating an engagement ring, the center diamond is the star of the show," says Lori Van Duyne. Van Duyne is a Gemological Institute of America trained diamond grader. Along with her husband, she owns Fernbaugh's Jewelers in Plymouth. "So it's important to be very strategic with your selection. You want to maximize your diamond-buying dollar. This is also true if you're having a piece of custom jewelry made, either for yourself or as a holiday gift."

In October, Van Duyne will be making a 4,000+ mile journey to Antwerp, Belgium. "The diamond market there is absolutely phenomenal," she explained. "In terms of selection, quality of the stones, and price, Antwerp is without a doubt the best place to buy diamonds." During this trip, Van Duyne will be purchasing diamonds for her store's inventory. She also uses this occasion to individually source stones for customer's projects, including engagement rings.

"The holiday season is right around the corner, and that's when a lot of proposals happen," Van Duyne explained. "Every couple has a budget, and if we can help you make the most of it, we're more than happy to do so." Van Duyne meets with interested customers prior to her departure to go over the size, cut, color and clarity of the desired diamond. "We're committed to finding the best quality stones available for all of our customers," Van Duyne said, "but there's a special thrill that comes when you know you've found exactly the right stone for a custom project."
