Nice Asschers, OMC, OEC, and Cushions! A new vendor to me...

[sanfranciscoellen]

For everyone here searching painfully for the perfect asscher, it seems like artdecodiamonds.com has a lovely in house stock! I just stumbled into the site, and they seem to have a lovely selection of hand picked asschers, OMC, OEC, cushions...it appears that this Suzanne woman has an eye for good oldstones with good numbers and with good value. I actually saw an eyeclean SI2 asscher! Be still my heart. Anyway, I don''t know whether this is a great company to work with or not, but it is always good to find a vendor who knows asschers, OMC, OEC and Cushions and has a fairly large store of in-house handpicked options! They also have some nice estate pieces.

Art Deco Diamonds Asscher List

All of the 4 types of diamonds I mentioned are found under "art deco diamonds", not "loose diamonds" which I found a little confusing at first.

Anyone have any experiences with them? I was just surprised that with all of the obsessive rooting around we do, I hadn''t heard a PS''er point anyone in this direction. Too good to be true?

it looks like all of the diamonds just have stock photos.

Great site. Love the fact that they give you access to the GIA cert

Yep, that would be a plus if they took *real* pics. Sigh.

by the numbers it looks like they have that part down but without actual pictures who knows.....
Some are on the deep side but if they specialize on older style asschers that makes sense.

Thanks for sharing this site. Anyone out there have any dealings with them?

I really like the OECs.

Hi there. I actually HAVE dealt with this site, artdecodiamonds.com. They were great! VERY helpful, they know their diamonds and jewelry! It seems they only carry quality, GIA certified diamonds. My husband upgraded my engagement ring, and we bought a 2.20 carat cushion cut with side moon stones. It is GORGEOUS! I couldn''t be happier! If we weren''t happy with it, they accept a return for full refund, but there''s no way i''m giving up my ring

Suzanne was great to deal with. We will definitely use them for our diamond and jewelry purchases!

sax, that''s wonderful...do you have a pictures of your ring? I would love to see it, it sounds fabulous..

Hi there. I actually DO have a pic of my ring...i have attached it : ). Also, what''s really nice is, they donate a percentage of each sale to breast cancer research, which I think really makes a difference. I actually have my eye on an antique ring now...can never have too much !
