DIAMONDS SOUTH AFRICA
- Clients are advised to do research relating to various types of diamonds. Please read all our diamond info as it will assist you in not overpaying for South African Diamonds.
- Our studio is registered with The Jewellery Council of South Africa and has an account with the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).
- All GIA-certified diamonds sold by Cape Town Diamonds contain a unique serial number laser-etched onto the girdle of the gemstone linking them to their unique certificate.
- Diamonds with no serial numbers that you might find being sold on the internet by other dealers can have fake certificates.
The GIA certificate stipulates the diamond clarity, colour, cut, shape, and size or diamond carat. Certain combinations of these characteristics give the diamond sparkling hues of perfection, making the stone more desirable and valuable.

Two years ago, my fiancé ordered my engagement ring from Cape Diamonds, and from that moment, I knew my wedding band would come from them as well. Cape Diamonds is a fantastic company that delivers both exceptional customer service and high-quality jewelry. This time, we placed an international order for my wedding band, and the process was smooth and fast. We received our order just a few days after it was shipped, and we couldn’t be happier.A huge thanks to Qaanita and the entire Cape Diamonds team!

It is my great pleasure to confirm that the reputation and advertising of Cape Diamond is supported by their excellent employees and finished products. A special shoutout to Olivia who will be mentioned at the end.-Professional and respectful service:Upon arriving at the premises, you are greeted by very friendly staff in a relaxed and comfortable environment. I did not find it uncomfortable to communicate my desires. I was welcomed to come into the store many times to discuss ideas and updates.-Designs:They have a very experienced team of designers and they do not charge for CAD. A design is sent to you, in my case on WhatsApp, for you to evaluate before you agree to begin the manufacturing. My custom finished product was exquisite and perfectly translated from my communication.-Communication:They have an amazing WhatsApp service that is really efficient in addition to email. I found their timely communication on WhatsApp to be a stand out feature. From setting up the appointment to continuous updates in subsequent days during working hours.-Financial value:Extremely fair pricing and difficult to beat compared to the local competition-Closing remarks:I had the great fortune to be assisted by an ethical and professional employee named Olivia. A valuable employee who is capable of increasing organisational valueFrom the initial communication, to the ongoing discussions about designs and output, I was treated with respect.Olivia’s patience with me was appreciated given my questions, concerns as well as constant changes. There were many WhatsApp’s and many in person consultations yet Olivia remained professional.The proof was in my satisfaction with my communication being successfully translated into the finished product.Thank you Cape Diamond.

Buying a diamond from Rebecca at Cape Diamonds, was like making a new friend. Rosemary was waiting outside Cape Diamonds for me when my Uber dropped me off. She greeted me warmly, ushered me inside, and seated together at her desk, she offered me friendly and professional advice in discussing my needs. Her warm manner made the experience of buying a diamond very memorable and very special. Her sharing in my excitement added a whole new dimension of joy to my experience.She kept me posted all throughout the wait while my diamond was sourced, set and polished, and even sent me videos of the process!Rebecca made me feel like I was her only customer 🩷Each time I admire my brand new little sparkling diamond, my heart is warmed by the memory of my uplifting experience at Cape Diamonds. Thank you !

I had the pleasure of being helped by Rebecca when I was searching for the perfect engagement ring, and I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the process — helping me make a decision that I felt 100% confident in.Thanks to Rebecca, my fiancée absolutely loved the ring and hasn’t stopped admiring it! I highly recommend asking for her if you’re looking for someone who truly cares about getting it right.

My experience working with Olivia at Cape Diamonds on my engagement ring was outstanding. From the initial call to subsequent meetings, she made the process seamless and a pleasure. I had a strong vision in mind, which Olivia not only brought to life but elevated into something extraordinary. The result was a ring that is truly a work of art: a bold statement, elegant, chunky yet refined, unusual yet timeless — and completely one of a kind. Olivia has an impeccable eye, taste, and design sensibility. Her communication is always clear and prompt, and her collaborative approach made the process effortless. I am eternally grateful for her expertise, and I am completely in love with the final piece. Our engagement in New York City was unforgettable, and the ring was its dazzling centrepiece. If you are looking for a jeweller who combines artistry, professionalism and heart, Olivia is the one to trust. My fiancé and I are returning to have our wedding bands made. Thank you so much, Olivia and Cape Diamonds.

I was a little naive when purchasing the right diamond - I didn’t realise the many specifications that make up a diamond but thankfully Rebecca was on hand to guide me through the process. Amazing customer focus by Rebecca and the Cape Diamonds team. Purchasing online from the UK prior to our visit to RSA is daunting but with good advice and support it was great. Rebecca was also on hand to help me claim back VAT which in itself can be a bit of a minefield. Rebecca is a star and I cannot thank her and the team at Cape Diamonds enough for going the extra yard to make sure myself, my wife and daughter were delighted with our anniversary ring and my daughter birthday earrings.

My husband alongside Rebecca designed the most beautiful soul ring as a gift to me for our 25th wedding anniversary. I also asked Rebecca to help me design earrings for my daughter’s 18th Birthday, doing this from the UK was daunting but Rebecca helped us every step of the way with such kindness and patience. When we arrived in Cape Town we headed straight to Cape Diamonds to finally meet Rebecca who was as professional and kind as she was on line. Both pieces of jewellery are gorgeous surpassing our expectations. I realised that evening my ring was slightly big, we returned the next day and it was resized without question and was ready for us to collect in less than 48 hours. I highly recommend Rebecca and the Cape Diamond Team for exceptional customer service and quality. Thank you Rebecca for making the start of our trip so special and sparkly!

I highly recommend Cape Diamonds! I requested a specific cut of diamond from them, and they were able to quickly source it for me before I had to fly back home. Petro was friendly, professional, and helpful, and made my jewelry-shopping experience an enjoyable one. And my partner and I love the diamond! High quality and a very reasonable price.

Cape diamonds provided us with an excellent service! They were really prompt with their quotes. Explained all the differences in metal and diamonds in a easy to understand manner and helping to find the perfect fit. The ring was worth every cent, the value you get for it we couldn’t find anywhere else. The princess pincushion design from the fynbos collection is everything I wanted and more. A classic design with something different to look at from the profile. If you love florals you’ll love the fynbos collection! When trying the rings on at the location the offices where beautifully designed, the location was easy to find and parking was available inside which was an extra bonus. We would just like to give Olivia a big thanks as well for her lovely and professional service.

I have had the most consistent experience across multiple purchases. My fiancé's engagement ring and her wedding band have both been purchased at Cape Diamond but 7 years apart (yes yes judge to your heart's content). Back then and now the service, engagement and quality have not dipped an inch.Here, have 6 more reasons to consider them.1) Professional staff everywhere.2) Aware of the available products and which would suit our needs and taste3) Despite adversity, I, myself introduced by taking waaaay too long to take the final step they were still able to help us find the perfect update to the ring.4) Personal attention, friendly and kind5) They know exactly what is good and what should be avoided6) CON 👏 SIS 👏 TANT 👏I would never go jewelry shopping anywhere else.
