How to Get Fine Jewelry from New York City’s Diamond District Delivered to Your Doorstep
An Easy Way to Bring New York’s Diamond District to Your Doorstep
Most mornings start with a call to 47th Street. In Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, we open messages from our partners in New York City’s Diamond District—fresh videos of pavé catching window light, a bezel nearly finished, a tennis bracelet laid out like a river. That’s our rhythm: you shop with us here at home, our third-generation bench jewelers in Manhattan do the finishing, and every order ships from the Diamond District in New York City to your doorstep. Questions? Contact us.
Why the Diamond District Matters
The Diamond District is a single Midtown block with a pulse—setters, polishers, casters, and graders stacked above and beside one another. That closeness solves problems in minutes, not weeks. For you, it means:
- Consistency: Stones matched by eye and measurement; symmetry double-checked under magnification.
- Faster finishing: If a prong needs a whisper more pressure, it’s handled while the metal’s still warm.
- Confidence: Listings with clean specs, honest photos, and video when available so your eyes do the final vote.
From 47th Street to Your Hands
- You choose your piece. Browse by moment (proposal, anniversary, everyday), by style (huggies, tennis, solitaires), or by metal/stone in our collection.
- Finishing with our NYC partners. Rings are sized and polished; bracelets and necklaces are checked for length and clasp integrity; pavé is inspected; settings are cleaned so light does what it’s meant to do.
- Final QC. Under magnification, we verify prongs, symmetry, pavé continuity, and surface finish, then confirm specs match your order.
- Discreet packaging & shipping from NYC. All jewelry ships from the Diamond District in New York City via USPS, UPS, or FedEx. Shipping is included in your price. Some orders may require a signature on delivery. Tracking is sent as soon as the label is created—see Shipping & Returns for details.
- Delivery day. The box opens; the piece looks exactly as described—only brighter in person. If you need help with fit or care, we typically reply within 1–2 business days.
Timelines You Can Trust
- Non-ring items (bracelets, necklaces, earrings): usually ship in 1–2 business days.
- Rings: typically ship in 1–4 business days, depending on size availability and light resizing.
- Tracking: emailed automatically once created.
- Returns: 30 days in original condition; shipping charges are non-refundable. See our Returns.
Certifications: IGI & AGS (Limited GIA)
For diamonds, we focus on IGI (International Gemological Institute) and AGS (American Gem Society). GIA is available in a limited way—usually for loose stones or select center stones.
- Four Cs clarity: standardized grading for cut, color, clarity, and carat (GIA 4Cs).
- Specs for the long term: useful for appraisals and future upgrades.
- Real-world comparison: certification helps you compare pieces that look similar on a screen (IGI · AGS).
How to Choose the Right Piece
1) Start with your moment
Proposals & milestones: Classic solitaires, halos, or three-stone rings with balanced proportions—browse engagement styles.
Everyday luxury: Diamond huggies, a slim tennis bracelet, or a bezel pendant—see earrings and bracelets.
Statement nights: Cocktail rings, elongated drops, or a lariat—explore rings and necklaces.
2) Pick your metal
- 14k Gold: everyday durability with classic luster.
- 18k Gold: warmer color and a softer glow.
- Platinum: naturally white, substantial, and hypoallergenic.
- .925 Sterling Silver: bright, modern, beautiful with white stones or color.
3) Decide where the “wow” belongs
Big center stone, simple setting—timeless and easy to wear. Or choose a detailed setting (halo, milgrain, split-shank) to add visual size and character without pushing carat weight.
4) Balance the Four Cs with your eyes
Cut drives sparkle. Color and clarity should match your taste and budget. Carat decides presence—but remember: millimeters are what your eye sees. When comparing, always look at the measurements.

Stories from the Bench (and the Coast)
The Weekender Proposal — He called from a parking lot, whispering so she couldn’t hear. We matched her size from a band she already wore, finished a six-prong solitaire with a low profile, and shipped it from 47th Street in time for Saturday. She said yes with sand still on her heels.
Everyday + Elevate — She wanted earrings that made work feel polished and dinner feel intentional. Diamond huggies did both. Two months later she added a bezel pendant—“it makes getting dressed simpler,” she said.
First Heirloom — A petite diamond in a warm 18k yellow bezel. “Something my daughter will borrow,” the note read. Now it’s the piece she never takes off.
Care That Keeps the Sparkle
- Cleaning: Warm water, a drop of mild soap, soft brush. Rinse and pat dry with a lint-free cloth. See GIA’s jewelry care guide.
- Storage: Separate pouches or compartments to avoid scratches and tangles.
- Quick checks: If prongs snag or a clasp loosens, pause wear and contact us.
- Resizing: Many rings can be resized—include your order number and target size when you reach out.
Consumer primers: FTC jewelry guidance and the Kimberley Process for conflict-prevention.
