Diamonds Are Forever. Sort Of.

Diamond is nature’s hardest substance, so you may think these gems are indestructible. Not so. Being crystalline, it is possible for a diamond to become chipped or abraded. Repairing it is a more affordable alternative to replacing it…and when the diamond holds sentimental value, it is an emotionally satisfying choice, too.

Repairing diamonds is a delicate art. It should be performed only by an expert with tremendous experience. Joseph and Paul Cassarino have been educated by the most prestigious industry organizations in the U.S. and abroad. Let them examine your damaged stone to determine if a repair is possible, and if so, explain what can be done to return your diamond to its original luster.
