GENERAL QUESTIONS
WHAT MAKES NUDE DIAMOND JEWELRY SO UNIQUE?
Primarily lying on the “Less is More” approach, the Nude Diamond concept consists in revealing diamond’s sparkling beauty, in its bare brilliance.
We achieve this by laser-drilling a tiny hole into the diamond, through which we run a small welded loop.
Thus liberated from its restraining setting, the diamond is left dangling freely from the chain/ring, making our pieces immediately recognizable, at first glance.
WHERE IS NUDE DIAMOND JEWELRY MADE?
We strive to provide high quality jewelry.
Therefore, we guarantee that all our pieces are designed and handcrafted with the greatest care, in our Antwerp workshop.
WON'T THE DIAMOND LOSE ITS VALUE, ONCE DRILLED?
The only diamonds that do not lose their value are the big/rare ones that you buy and lock up in a safe; what we call investment diamonds.
All the other diamonds, big or small, even the colorless and/or flawless ones lose their value the second you start wearing them.
Since we only use “small” diamonds, it is absolutely fine to drill them. Not only won’t they lose more value than undrilled diamonds of similar size/quality, they will also sparkle more and give off more brilliance, from every facet.
In other words, whatever small value you may be afraid to lose in price value, you will more than gain back in emotional value!
WON'T THE DIAMOND BREAK MORE EASILY, ONCE DRILLED?
Diamond is the hardest substance on earth. However drilling into it is a very technical process, which requires skills and in-depth knowledge of the stone.
All our diamonds are drilled in the exact same specific spot to ensure that their structural properties remain unaltered.
Therefore, we can guarantee that Nude Diamond drilled diamonds are just as strong as undrilled ones.
Besides, the loop that runs through the hole is welded, making it perfectly secure.
But just like with any other piece of fine jewelry, we would not recommend engaging in any physical activity while wearing our jewelry.
WHAT WOULD YOU STYLE NUDE DIAMOND JEWELRY WITH?
With anything, really!
Because our jewelry is so minimalist and dainty, it will look equally stunning with your favorite pair of jeans and sneakers as it will with an evening dress and stilettos.
You can also wear several Nude Diamond pieces together very easily; they will just bring an elegant sparkling touch down your neck, on your finger or around your wrist, without looking flashy.
