Tiffany Setting

For every perfect love story there is a perfect engagement ring, and it was Tiffany & Co., in 1886, who first launched the Tiffany Setting, the engagement ring as we know it today. 

Tiffany’s diamonds have always been the symbol of luxury and glamour to the point that in 1848 Charles Lewis Tiffany was named “The King of Diamonds.” Since Tiffany purchased the French Crown Jewels, in 1887, its diamonds became the most cherished in the world. Tiffany’s diamonds, soon became the status-symbol of the finest people and families.

Tiffany’s diamonds are so precious and exquisite not only because of their design, but thanks to their quality. Tiffany & Co. has high standards for all 4Cs: cut, color, clarity and carat weight.

Cut is referred to the proportions of the facets on the surface of the diamond, therefore determining its brilliance, dispersion and scintillation. The issue is that by cutting the diamond, you sacrifice its size. What makes Tiffany special is that its diamonds are cut for beauty and not for size.

Color refers to the shade of the stone. A scale that goes from D to Z explains the color of  diamonds. Tiffany accepts only D to I diamonds.

Clarity is the measurement of the lack of imperfections of a diamond. It has a scale that goes from FL (flawless) to 13 (visible inclusions). Tiffany has high standards for the quality of its stones.

Finally, carat is the unit of measurement of a diamond’s weight. 1 carat corresponds to 0.2 grams and Tiffany’s Gemological Laboratory measures diamonds up to 1/1000 of a carat.

Tiffany Setting is the perfect fusion of quality and design, its beauty and romance embrace everything a woman should desire from an engagement ring. It is classic but classy, traditional but luxurious, and especially it is GLAMOROUS, just like the Tiffany brand itself.
