We went to Marina Bay Sands, Jewel Cove as they had some diamonds to show us as we are eligible for upgrade within 2 years at full value for our Hearts on Fire ring. We really felt that the service there and at somerset 313 were professional and they were really nice. CC upgraded the ring for me as we foresee that we will be very busy next year with the wedding preparations. Need to save more money now!!!
On last Sun, 7 Nov, we were able to collect our ring, so we went down with Sf and Ohp after our dimsum buffet at fullerton on that day.
I got my AGS cert! For HOF diamonds, only 0.7cts or bigger diamonds will have the AGS cert that comes along with it. Previously I read that all HOF diamonds are Triple Ideal cut diamonds. So wat does it mean?
A Triple-0 diamond can also be called a "Triple Ideal Cut" or "AGS-Ideal Zero" diamond. In order for a diamond to receive a "Triple-0" grading, all three categories of cut (Polish, Symetry, Proportion) must meet the "ideal" criteria, thus the term, Triple Ideal. Interesting!
There are lots of diamonds in the market that claims to be Hearts and Arrows cut, meaning when viewed using an idealscope or loupe from the bottom, it displays eight symmetrical hearts and a perfect pattern of eight symmetrical arrows when viewed from the top.
However, some diamonds that are not cut well will display “broken hearts or broken arrows” which will affect the performance of the stone. Also, its not so nice to receive a proposal ring with broken hearts right? So how can we be sure?
For my diamond, I was v lucky to be able to see it when it was in a loose stone state, not mounted yet, so i managed to look at it thru the idealscope which really displayed perfect 8 hearts and arrows! In fact, all HOF diamonds picked randomly in the store will display this, and seeing is believing! Very happy!!! And best of all, the staff of Marina Bay Sands, Jewel Cove were very professional in serving us, they were not pushy, very accomodating and even helped to make a special request to get us an Idealscope for us. It came in a nicely wrapped box with a v cute message below. Thank you guys so much!!
My HOF Idealscope!
We got a cleaning cloth my my stone, very useful and good quality. Another HOF Pen, which we really like, its pretty classy and nice to write, and we didnt even had to request for all of these extras. They also gave us a very nice RED jewellery box for putting 4 dian jin for our wedding. Very pleased!
We also used our points accumulated from the purchase to buy a gold coin pendant. CC says its for his future son, Joshua. Haha, ok sure, its very worth it cos we only paid 100 plus and we can bring back a gold coin. Hee!
Thanks Dear and the staff of Jewel Cove, MBS~~
