Our History
A Legacy Built on Craftsmanship
How did LV Diamonds start?
Luc Vets is a second generation diamantaire who founded his company in the early seventies.
Back then the production was situated in the Kempen area, a rural area just outside Antwerp. Labour was cheaper than in Antwerp and the production grew quickly with quick turnaround times of the stock. The majority of the production consisted of -11 sizes and 10/ct.
In the mid eighties an opportunity arose to shift production overseas. This soon took over the smallest and cheapest product categories from the Belgian production thus freeing up workers to expand into bigger sizes.
The following years were marked by a gradual expansion of the production until the late nineties where we realised that specific factories for specific productlines would lead to a general improvement of quality and production efficiency. This lead to the startup of our far east production where we are, up until today, polishing our stars and single cuts.
Our Mission
Zero Defect Service
What does zero defect service mean?
Our mission is to become an integral part of your business. We believe in "zero defect service".
Our product is more than an ideally cut diamond, it is a complete package that will give you the best possible polished diamond for the best price, graded towards your specific needs and delivered to you within 48hrs. And all this without the need for you to spend time on QC to make rejections.
In short: our front office is your back office!
