Exquisite Henri Daussi Rings
Because of their rarity and hardness, cutting diamonds is the most difficult task in the jewelry industry. Most diamond cutters and polishers train for decades before they truly master their trade. Despite numerous technological advancements, most experienced artisans cut stones the same way they did in the Middle Ages, by hand.
Even with modern tools and techniques, diamonds inevitably lose weight when they are cut. Most stones that are cut correctly lose about half of their carat weight. But because bigger stones are typically more expensive, cutters are often instructed to sacrifice cut quality to preserve or retain the weight.
Henri Daussi Loots experienced this practice firsthand. As a young apprentice to a master diamond cutter, he was often ordered to cut as little as possible. This invariably resulted in larger stones that were not cut to their full potential. Poorly cut stones are often good enough to pass muster with uninformed consumers, but a professional knows the difference. True diamond cutters consider it a sacrilege to improperly cut a stone for a few dollars more.
When he opened his own diamond cutting facility in Antwerp Belgium, the diamond capital of the world, the young master vowed to never compromise cut quality for carat weight. Henri Daussi rings contain the highest quality stones that are sourced directly from local mines.
All Henri Daussi rings are hand-selected by certified gemologists before they are handed to the diamond cutters. These rough stones are then cut and polished according to the specific dimensions set forth by the company founder himself over a half century ago. Henri Daussi rings are widely regarded as the best cut diamonds in all of Europe. It is quite an accolade, considering the fact that 80 percent of the world’s rough diamonds are cut on the continent.
