About Mint Diamonds

We are unique in our ability to bring our customer’s vision of the perfect ring to life. When choosing a custom ring, we inspire you to be directly involved in the design process and our designers help bring out the best in your ideas. Then we obsess about every detail of creation, resulting in a ring that is far more sentimental than what you will find anywhere else.

You may choose a piece from our modern, yet timeless collection or one of our personal design consultants will guide you in creating a truly unique and beautiful ring from beginning to end.

Mint Diamonds does not operate retail locations in order to cut overhead costs and focus exclusively on quality and service - providing you with a high quality product at a much better value than your local jewelry store. It is estimated that shopping online will save you 20-50% or more on a diamond and engagement ring.

That being said, we understand how important it is for our customers to see and feel jewelry - especially a piece of jewelry as personal as an engagement ring. That's why we offer free shipping on all our items, a 30-day money back guarantee, and free ring resizing for 60 days after your purchase.

Our Diamonds

A Gemological Institute of America (GIA), certificate assures the value and quality of your diamond. GIA is the gold standard in diamond grading. Their reports detail key characteristics of each diamond.

The Four C's - Carat (size), Color, Clarity and Cut - are the industry grade standard from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). Every diamond is specifically graded on these features. Additional information may be found by in the “Diamond Fundamentals” section of our “Guidance” section.

We pride ourselves in hand-selecting only the highest quality of diamonds within the range of quality characteristics that we recommend to maximize fire, brilliance and value.

The center diamonds that our experts will hand-select for you fall within our recommended “eye-clean” range of qualities, which vary slightly between carat weights and shapes. Visit the Diamond Shapes section under the Guidance tab for further detailed information.

For the small “accent” or “melee” diamonds that we set in halos or on the band, we select collection-quality diamonds that fall within the colorless to near colorless range of F-G and that are “eye-clean” within the clarity range of SI1 to VS2.

"Eye-Clean" is a term used to describe a diamond that is clean to an unaided eye in a face-up position from a distance of 8 to 10 inches. Diamonds of VS2 or higher in quality will usually be eye-clean. Diamonds of SI1, SI2 and I1 need to be visually inspected to determine whether any inclusions are visible from the top. We will also inspect any diamond at no charge.

We ship every loose diamond and diamond engagement ring with it’s independent GIA lab report. This report can be examined by a qualified gemologist and compared against the unique characteristics of your diamond.

Mint Diamonds only sells diamonds that are 100% natural and untreated.

The Gemological Institute of America (GIA), will not issue grading reports on diamonds that have been treated or enhanced, so purchasing our diamonds - which are all GIA certified -- is another guarantee that your diamond is natural.

Every gemstone used in our jewelry was mined from the earth. We do not sell synthetic or lab created gemstones.

Yes. It is very common for natural gemstones to be heated. Heating the stone can intensify color and clarity, making the gemstone more beautiful and valuable. In addition, emeralds are commonly infused with a colorless oil, wax or resin to improve their appearance and luster. Nearly all rubies and emeralds on the jewelry market today are heated or treated in some fashion.

Yes, but only very slightly. In order to give 18kt White Gold a pure white color, it is plated with rhodium. This is a standard practice for 14kt and 18kt White Gold jewelry. Over time, the rhodium plating may wear off. When that occurs, the true color of the white gold (a slightly buttery off-white) will appear. Mint Diamonds offers lifetime free rhodium plating on all our jewelry.
