Diamond Education

Our education section on this page covers everything you need to know about jewellery. This includes cultural or historical backgrounds, why diamond certificates are important, and guides to things such as ring metals. If jewellery terminology such as the 4 C’s of diamonds sounds like a foreign language to you, this section will put any confusion to rest. At Shining Diamonds, we don’t just want to supply you with jewellery, but ensure you know everything you need to when it comes to your purchase. We understand how important significant events such as proposals and weddings are, and intend to help you find a perfect ring as well as help you throughout the journey.

Our other article sections split into categories such as engagements, lifestyle and weddings. The engagement section discusses all things romantic, including advice and inspiration for proposals, or romantic quotes for your loved one. The lifestyle section helps each individual find jewellery suited to them, such as which diamond shape defines your style, or which ring setting is suited to your daily deeds. Finally, the wedding articles contain all the information you will need when it comes to weddings, from place cards to venue.
