The World of Pink Diamonds

Few jewellers are as passionate about diamonds as Baker Brothers, where the earths finest treasures never fail to excite.

Diamonds handpicked by proprietor Kevin Coleman in Antwerp you will see diamonds up to D/flawless in quality but never less than H/Si1 - and always at the upper end of that scale.

Whatever the occasion clients can select from a fascinating range of mounted diamond jewellery but they are also encouraged to pick their own diamonds from the traditional wooden boxes filled with tiny diamond filled paper packets.

When opened these ordinary pieces of paper reveal the hot fire of a precious stone that is just waiting to celebrate that special occasion in someone's life.

Not only is a diamond for life it is probably the best investment in a piece of the world's history you will ever make. All diamonds are four billion years old so as you look at its price based on its heritage it is a small price to pay to own a piece of antiquity which will endure as a future heirloom.

Across the miles from deep in the earth and through the distances of time the diamonds pure light continues to shine through. Every diamond is unique and is still seen today as the most precious of gemstones so there is no better symbol of love than the gift of a diamond.

While the message will be forever, some of the details change from time to time.

The round brilliant diamond will always be the most sought after cut but Baker Brothers are extending the variety with more unusual cuts such as Emerald cut, the stylised emerald cut popularly referred to as an Asscher cut, the marquise pear, princess and the Flanders cut which is exclusive to Baker Brothers in the UK.

Style and fashion are important to Baker Brothers' clients which is why Kevin travels the world exclusively to ensure his clients have not only the latest designs but also the best.

The brands are all here, the quality is fabulous and Kevin guarantees his diamond prices to be unbeatable in the UK and that includes internet prices.

While diamonds continue to delight Kevin and the team they are always looking at ways of expanding their sparkling repertoire.

A 30,000 mile square trip by Kevin has resulted in him obtaining something unique in diamonds - pink diamonds.

Less than 1% of the world's diamonds are pink and it is estimated that supplies will be exhausted in 10-12 years.

Kevin visited Australia to pick from a selection that is so exclusive that the entire year's production can be held in the palm of one's hand.

The top 50 pink diamonds are available only to a select number of the world's diamontaires and only by tender.

Kevin viewed the fabulous fifty which included one diamond only 2ct in size but could ultimately sell for up to £2 million.

The mine is situated in a remote area of Australia but with Kevin buying direct from source, as he does with his other diamonds, he ensures that prices are not all in the Jennifer Lopez category.
