Since the fifteenth century, Antwerp has been one of the most important diamond cities in the world. A large share of the world's diamonds passes through here, and in the diamond district around Central Station, traders, cutters and jewellers work side by side.
Lab-grown diamonds are changing the market, but that Antwerp expertise remains highly valuable. In this article we explain why.
1. Centuries of diamond knowledge
In Antwerp, people have assessed stones on colour, clarity and cut quality for generations. That knowledge is no different for lab-grown diamonds. A lab-grown stone is graded in the same way as a natural diamond.
A supplier with that background knows what to look for, and sees the difference between a good stone and an average one.
2. Quality control close to home
Lab-grown diamonds are often produced in Asia. Anyone ordering directly from an unknown factory does not always know what they will get. An Antwerp wholesaler forms the bridge:
- Every delivery is checked before it is sent to you
- You have a fixed point of contact in Europe
- Problems are solved by people you can call or visit
3. Fast delivery within Europe
From Antwerp, a delivery quickly reaches jewellers in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, France and the rest of Europe. You do not have to wait long for shipments from far away, and communication happens in your time zone.
4. Service in your language
In Antwerp, working in several languages is a given: Dutch, French, English and often German. That makes cooperation easier and prevents misunderstandings on custom orders.
5. A strong story for your customers
“Straight from the Antwerp diamond district” is also a strong argument for your end customer. It builds trust, and it fits the experience of a piece of jewellery someone will wear for a lifetime.
