Diamonds are perfect for every occasion

Is it wrong to say we’re jealous of April babies? You almost have to be — their birthstone is actually DIAMOND! 


Here at Dickinson Jewelers, we love diamonds. Who doesn’t?! Diamond is arguably the most famous gemstone and for good reason. Its durability, sparkle, and shine make it the most gorgeous for a reason. 


Before we start showing off some of our current favorite diamond pieces, we thought we’d share some diamond facts. Did you know that diamonds have been famous since the fourth century BCE? Diamonds are so old that even their name comes from the ancient Greek word for unbreakable. That makes sense considering that diamonds are so hard that only another diamond can scratch one. If you want to know even more, you can read all kinds of exciting diamond facts in our past blogs.




Diamond stud earrings are timeless for a reason, but we have to confess that we love Le Vian’s updated take as well! The use of chocolate diamonds in the center surrounded by more traditional “vanilla” diamonds is a fun spin on a classic. 





If you love the look of fancy diamonds (that’s the technical term for diamonds that are intentionally colored), you’ll want to explore the entire Le Vian line. They are so creative in their use of chocolate diamonds. This topaz-and-diamond strawberry gold pendant is just one of the many gorgeous looks found in this line. 



Most people picture tennis bracelets when thinking of diamonds around your wrist, but we have many trendy looks. This rose gold bangle adds sparkle to every outfit, casual or formal.




We’re also big fans of this ladder bracelet! Shy Creations really knocked this one out of the park. What a simple yet elegant way to display your love for April’s birthstone! 




Of course, you can’t go wrong with a classic. This is the original tennis bracelet style, made famous by Chris Evert. We believe that things become classics for a reason, and this bracelet is no exception. 




One of the most famous uses of diamonds is in wedding and engagement bands. Have you ever wondered how this tradition was started? It has everything to do with some of the special qualities of diamonds! Diamonds are so tough that they are considered to be eternal. The symbolism of this was adopted for wedding and engagement rings because your love is eternal, too! 





Did you know that we offer a full range of engagement ring planning? It’s true! If your bride-to-be has been dropping hints about getting engaged, we have jewelry stylists ready to help. If you know exactly what you’re looking for, they can make it happen, but we also love helping you see your options to make up your mind if you’re undecided. Our engagement website offers ways to shop by personality type or diamond cut. We even have a section of rings under $1,000 and offer financing options. 



We also love to design custom engagement rings! (Okay - we love to design custom EVERYTHING, but engagement rings are especially fun.) Make an appointment today to talk about options. We can’t wait to make your dreams come true! 

Whether you're shopping for engagement rings or diamond fashion jewelry, Dickinson Jewelers has what you're looking for! April's timeless birthstone is a classic, and our stylists in Dunkirk and Prince Frederick would love to help you find the look you want.
