  Diamond Broker Information

For many years, Trein’s has been active in the Antwerp, Belgium diamond market. Over the years things have changed on the diamond market, but one thing remains the same; we are committed to providing a service to our customers, second to none. Pricing of the diamonds is the best.

With the “Diamond Broker Program,” our customers realize a significant difference in the price. Usually the difference is about 15 to 20%, but can be much higher on some diamonds.

Why Antwerp? Because it is the “diamond capital of the world.” More diamonds pass through Antwerp than any other place in the world. There is more to choose from and the variety of qualities is massive. It takes a combination of criteria to exhibit the most brilliant diamonds. It also takes a qualified buyer to recognize the best combination of color, cut, clarity and carat weight.

Color of diamonds refers to the amount of color, or ideally the lack of color they exhibit. The best of course is “D” color or no color. Clarity refers to the amount of inclusions that a diamond contains. Inclusions are not a terrible thing providing they are not dark and obvious or that there are not plentiful. We think that a clarity of SI l or above is important to maximize the beauty of the diamond.

Carat weight refers to what the diamonds weighs. Very small diamonds have their own beauty and very large diamonds, that are more rare can be even more breath taking. Cut, in our opinion, is the most important of all. There are correct proportions, especially of a round diamond, that maximize it's ability to bend light and give an exciting burst of brilliance!

When you see a diamond that grabs your attention and you see a rainbow of light and strong scintillation, you are viewing a diamond that has good color, cut and clarity. It should be bright, brilliant and fiery. It should almost take your breath away with it's beauty.

To utilize our “Diamond Broker Program” you need to contact us before one of our two buying trips per year to discuss what is important to you. We can find anything you would like at an affordable price. If you are thinking of a diamond, please call or email us.

We buy directly from the cutters and belong to IJO, the largest diamond buying group in the world.
