When it comes to trading in diamonds towards the purchase of new ones, David jokes “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses….” Indeed, David Craig Jewelers welcomes you to stop in and trade in your diamond engagement ring stone, stud earrings, or necklace pendant toward an even more fabulous diamond.

Reasons to consider trading up:

• You tastes have evolved: Maybe you simply want to change the more sedate, traditional size and cut you loved three decades ago onto something more glamorous.
• Your budget has increased: A much greater disposable income now may be the perfect time to keep your original sentimental setting with a new center diamond.
• You want to celebrate a milestone: What better way to commemorate a special anniversary or wedding vow renewal?
• You deserve it!

Diamond Selection Extraordinaire

David offers brands like Forevermark from DeBeers, the company that gave us that famous slogan “A diamond is Forever” way back in 1947. De Beers Forevermark diamonds are individually inscribed with a promise that assures your diamond is “beautiful, rare and responsibly sourced.”

Diamonds, in fact, have been popular for centuries. The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) tells us that diamonds were probably traded in India as far back as the fourth century B.C. By the 1400s, diamonds, they say, were becoming fashionable with European elites. As diamond popularity increased even more, a large quantity was discovered in 1866 in South Africa, followed by advancements in mining techniques, cutting, polishing and appearance.

More Diamond Tips:

• If you purchased your original diamond from us we will take this value in credit towards a bigger diamond, provided it is in the same condition as when you first purchased it. But we also will consider diamonds not purchased originally with us.
• Trade-ins do not include lab-created diamonds, which we do not carry.
• Diamonds that are chipped or otherwise damaged are not eligible for upgrade.
