Wat een kans! Quelle opportunité!
In case you were wondering, that’s how you say ‘what an opportunity’ in Dutch and French, the dual languages of Belgium. Read on because we have the chance of a lifetime for you!
First of all, why is an independent jewelry store in Calvert County, Maryland talking about Belgium? Easy. Forget the chocolates, lace, and waffles — Belgium’s most famous export is diamonds!
More than 84 percent of the world’s finest diamonds pass through the northern city of Antwerp. For more than 500 years, Antwerp has been home to diamond workshops, brokers, and artisans. Without question, it is home to the best diamonds in the world.
While Dickinson Jewelers hasn’t quite been around for 500 years, we have been making trips to Antwerp for almost 40 years. Claude Dickinson, Jr. began going to Antwerp to buy loose diamonds, and his son and our current owner Claude III has been going for 30 years.
Claude doesn’t go to Antwerp because he loves the food, the culture and the welcoming city (although he does). He goes for YOU, our wonderful customers! And now’s your opportunity to get in on the action.
Claude is offering you the opportunity for him to act as your personal Antwerp Diamond Broker.
While on his trip, he can select your diamond based on your size, shape, quality and price preferences directly from these top cutters in Antwerp. He sees thousands of diamonds in Antwerp, but he only chooses the best of the best.
How’s that for the chance of a lifetime?! All you have to do is give Claude a call, and you’ll have your very own diamond broker. (Be honest — you totally want to drop in casual conversation that you have a diamond broker. Us too!) Claude provides the service you know and love from our Dunkirk and Prince Frederick locations in the top diamond market in the world.
You might be thinking, “A personal diamond broker sounds too fancy for me. I’m not Posh Spice.” But that’s simply not the case! You deserve the very best, and that’s what we’ll give you. Are you celebrating a milestone birthday? Planning an engagement or heading toward a special anniversary? Graduating, having a baby, or just ready to treat yourself? You need to celebrate, and we’re here to make it easy! There are a thousand and one reasons to get a diamond, so why not go directly to the source with Claude as your guide?
If you are interested in upgrading your current diamond, including diamond studs, we welcome trade-ins and upgrades, even if your original diamond wasn’t purchased at Dickinson Jewelers. Interest-free financing is also available.
Claude leaves for Antwerp on October 13, so if you or someone you know are in the market for a diamond, give him a call or email for more information. You can reach Claude at 301-855-8770 or at claude@dickinsonjewelers.com.
