Engagement
This is not merely a state of being in love or being
besotted - this is love. The day, which your loved one
has been dreaming about since she was a little girl,
is now ahead of you. She is waiting for her fairy tale
moment. A scintillating ring, a symbol of your shared
future, will always decorate the ring finger of her
left hand. A ring has no beginning and no end
- it is an eternal piece of jewelry just like love is.
Your chosen one will always remember the magical
and exceptional moment when you first slid
it onto her finger.

Wedding
This is the crossroads of life, where two journeys
of two unique people combine to create a single one.
It will be stronger, more loving, more beautiful…
Once you cross this threshold, the world of me and you
will cease to exist and it will be only us. A wedding bouquet
will dry out, photographs may fade, but wedding rings will
stay the same forever and their value will never wane.
Seal your decision and the uniqueness of this moment with
a quality of the highest order. Invest in jewelry full of
meaning and value that will give the brightest green light
to your shared future. A marriage will be filled with great
days, but also with ones that are more difficult.
The material manifestation of your bond and the beauty
of your wedding band will be the perfect reminder
that every day spent together is very much worth it.

Christening
You have created a new life. You have sealed your love
in the most amazing way. Now an adventure called
parenthood awaits, one for which there is no real instruction
manual. It cannot be taught. The one thing you can be
certain of is that you love your little bundle of joy with
all your heart. A jewel with perpetual value is the most
fitting gift for the occasion of christening.
It will accompany your child throughout life; it combines
the purity of baptism with the preciousness of the gem.
Even if you choose a more traditional gift in the form
of earrings, pendant or a bracelet, you will be able to
choose a unique piece full of symbolism and value.

NO TWO DIAMONDS ARE ALIKE
The price of a diamond is determined by four main
factors. They are also known as 4C: carat, color, clarity
and cut. The value of diamonds is also impacted by other
parameters pertaining to gemstones – the processing, the
symmetry, the fluorescence and the certification type.
According to color, diamonds fall into twelve categories
ranging from top class white diamonds to colored diamonds.
Clarity is determined by the number of inclusions,
which fall into seven categories. It is worth keeping in
mind all parameters. The price of two identically large
diamonds may vary as much as threefold due to different
color and clarity.

CUT

The quality of a cut is one of the main criteria that
57,5% table
jewelers use to rate diamonds. Cut determines how
a diamond will reflect light. The better the cut the
crown 14,6%
more the diamond sparkles. A perfectly cut diamond
girdle
is brilliant all over, plus you can also observe some
pavilion 43,1%
rainbow flashes which are created by the mutual
reflection and refraction of light that bounces off
the individual facets.
98,5% culet
CARAT
Diamond weight is measured in carat (1 carat = 0,2 g).
The price of two identically large diamonds may differ
significantly in price if they are of a different clarity, color
or cut quality. A smaller but higher quality gemstone might

frequently than bigger ones and thus the price of a weightier
diamond of the same parameters could be higher.

THE SECRET OF THE MOST VALUABLE GEMSTONES
These are the seven most valuable gemstones in the world.
Why are they so precious and why should you invest in them?
CLEAR DIAMOND
The king of all precious stones – that is what
a diamond is. The hardest mineral known to
man is a form of carbon. It is created under
extreme temperatures and pressure and this is
a reason why diamonds are also found in extinct
stars in space. Chemically pure diamonds are
perfectly colorless. A large and clear diamond
has since time immemorial been the synonym
of uniqueness and value.
84
7_AJ.indd 84-85
BLUE DIAMOND
A blue diamond will bring a similar prestige to
your family heirloom. It is a unique and valuable
mineral, which owes its special coloring to traces
of boron. It is not a coincidence that the most
famous diamond in the world is this shade – the
Hope Diamond. Weighing more than 9 grams,
it was made famous amongst others by King
Louis XIV. Blue diamonds are one of the priciest
diamonds in the world.
DEEP YELLOW DIAMOND
A diamond is the only gemstone that is found
in all color modifications. Some color diamonds
are so rare that the usual 4C evaluation (carat,
clarity, color, cut) does not apply to them and
they can be more expensive than perfectly
colorless diamonds. A typical example is the deep
yellow diamond, which gains its unique color
from nitrogen impurities.
85
10/1/15 10:24 PM
RUBY
EMERALD
A ruby the color of pigeon blood, meaning
a deep red color with a slightly bluish tint, is
the dream of every gemstone lover. This highly
prized variety of corundum with chromium,
which is the cause of the breathtaking shades
it can attain, can be even more valuable than
large diamonds when it is found in top quality
and more than a carat in weight.
A stunning green gemstone – it could only be an
emerald. The name comes from smaragdos, the
ancient Greek word for green. This unique stone
is the most expensive variety of beryl and the
gorgeous coloration is caused by its chromium
content. Large dark green emeralds fetch higher
prices than clear diamonds of the same size.
SAPPHIRE
TANZANITE
Sapphires boast the fact that they cover the entire
color spectrum. This valuable corundum attains
unique shades of pink, blue, orange, yellow or
a greenish hue thanks to certain amounts of iron,
chromium, copper or magnesium. The most
valuable sapphires are blue, where the color comes
from titanium and iron, but also the salmonred paparadscha sapphires, colored by iron and
chromium. Their prices are comparable with ruby.
Tanzanite is one of the rarest shades of blue
found anywhere in the world of gemstones.
This unique silicate, which is mined in only
one place in the world, owes its stunning hue
to trace amounts of strontium. Its deposits
found in the shadow of the Kilimanjaro
will soon be exhausted, which continues to
constantly increase the value of tanzanite.
