Understanding Your Diamonds: Colour and Clarity Explained for New Jewellery Buyers

We believe in informed decisions when buying brand new fine diamond jewellery.

• Diamond Colour (F–G): The diamonds in this ring are graded F–G, placing them firmly within the "Colourless" to "Near Colourless" range. They appear very bright and white to the naked eye, maximizing their brilliance and contributing to the ring's overall sparkle.
• Diamond Clarity (VS): VS ("Very Slightly Included") means any internal marks (inclusions) are extremely minute and typically not visible even under 10x magnification. This high clarity grade ensures exceptional light performance and a clear, brilliant appearance.

Decoding UK Hallmarks: Authenticity from London (2008) and Sponsor DB – Your Guarantee of a New, Authentic Piece

Understanding the hallmarks on your precious metal jewellery is fundamental to verifying its authenticity and purity, as legally required in the UK. Our brand new 18ct gold three-stone diamond ring bears clear UK hallmarks, meticulously verifying its material purity and its original manufacturing date.

• "18ct" or "750" Mark: This hallmark unequivocally confirms the gold purity (75% pure gold), ensuring genuine 18ct gold jewellery.
• London Assay Office Mark: This distinctive mark identifies where the ring was meticulously assayed and hallmarked in the UK, specifically by the esteemed London Assay Office. As one of the oldest and most respected assay offices in the United Kingdom, its mark signifies strict compliance with UK hallmarking laws and impeccable quality control, vital for authentic new UK jewellery.
• Year Mark (2008): The specific year mark indicates that the ring was officially hallmarked in 2008, providing verifiable provenance and confirming its exact manufacturing date as a new, untouched item.
• Sponsor's Mark "DB": This unique and legally registered mark precisely identifies the company or individual who submitted this ring for official hallmarking. Its presence ensures accountability for the item's precious metal content at the point of hallmarking, adding another layer of trust to your new purchase.

Caring for Your New 18ct Gold Three-Stone Diamond Ring: Preserving Your Precious Investment

To preserve the beauty, brilliance, and longevity of your exquisite brand new 18ct gold three-stone diamond ring, we recommend the following care practices:

• Gentle Cleaning: For everyday sparkle, use a soft jewellery polishing cloth. For a deeper clean, gently brush the ring with a soft brush (like a very soft toothbrush) and a solution of mild, non-detergent soapy water. Rinse thoroughly under clean running water and dry with a lint-free cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Remove your ring before using household cleaning products, chlorine, or applying perfumes/lotions, as these can dull the gold or affect the diamonds.
• Safe Storage: Store your ring separately from other jewellery in a soft cloth pouch or a dedicated compartment in your jewellery box. This prevents scratches from harder gemstones or metals, and helps protect the rhodium plating on the white gold head.
• Periodic Professional Checks & Re-plating: We highly recommend having the settings and diamonds checked annually by a professional jeweller (like our team at H E Phillips Ltd) to ensure the claws remain secure. Additionally, if the white gold head's rhodium plating wears over time, it can be professionally re-plated to maintain its bright, silvery-white lustre.
