An engagement ring stands for one of the best and most important decisions of your life. It is emblematic of everything that makes a relationship special. Apart from your wedding day, this ring is the most special symbol as it marks the start of the celebration of a beautiful, joyous journey that you have set upon with the one you love. We know how significant an engagement ring is, and that choosing one is perhaps the hardest and yet most satisfying decision of your life.
When it comes to luxury engagement rings, A.JAFFE is your best bet. With a legacy of over 130 years, we are the best in the business. So, what makes A.JAFFE so unique? Let us tell you how A.JAFFE makes jewelry buying a wholesome experience for you and your partner.
Legacy
In 1892, Abraham Jaffe set up a shop in New York City. Today, we know and love the same endeavor as A.JAFFE. A pioneer in the business, he was responsible for shifting the business to West 47th Street, which is now a global jewelry hub.
He proudly stood for values like excellence, innovation, and trust – and A.JAFFE has managed to maintain those values for over a century! With 130 years of experience, A.JAFFE has a rich legacy and heritage that spans the jazz era, the Art Deco period, both the World Wars, and the new millennium, in style!
Trust
We are passionate about what we do. Our presence in the market epitomizes the love and hard work that each A.JAFFE team member puts into the jewelry we create. With a lifetime warranty on every product, we have a special way of saying that we care about your ring as much as you do. The signature A.JAFFE emblem engraved on the inside of your jewelry conveys that an expert craftsman has designed this ring with pride. We assure you of the authenticity and flawlessness of the jewelry we produce every single time.
Bespoke
A.JAFFE has a range of ready-to-wear rings that will blow your mind. These rings are designed with great attention to detail and are a convenient option if you do not have a lot of time on your hands. However, if you know exactly what you want in terms of ring design – and can’t find it in our catalog – we also provide the option of customization. Whether you make small modifications to one of our existing engagement ring designs or decide to go with a completely original design, our master craftsmen create jewelry that fits your vision perfectly.
We build on your unique engagement ring design idea by drawing, sketching, and creating 3D images. We also make a wax model or digital rendering of your concept, for you to approve, before we actually manufacture the ring. Our excellent artisans then craft your beloved bespoke engagement ring. Just so you know, it takes over 80 hours to create one A.JAFFE ring! The ring then aces as many as 10 quality checks before you finally see it for the first time.
Process
The meticulous process put in place to create each luxury engagement ring is the most important aspect that makes A.JAFFE what it is today. This is done to ensure that each ring is a masterpiece in its own right! Each A.JAFFE ring signifies excellence and reflects the brand’s glorious legacy.
Ethical Sourcing
The prestigious Responsible Jewelry Council recently accredited the A.JAFFE production facility, certifying our steadfast commitment to ethical sourcing and responsible business practices. Each diamond used by A.JAFFE is responsibly sourced, following the Kimberley process, to ensure that each A.JAFFE jewelry piece contains conflict-free diamonds.
Diamonds
Our diamond selection process goes beyond the 4Cs as we are always on the lookout for the highest levels of fire and sparkle. The most commonly used diamond quality in A.JAFFE settings are G/H VS (or SI upon request), graded to internationally accepted GIA standards.
A.JAFFE ensures that all diamonds go through a synthetic-detection machine to ensure their authenticity; and we check that they are cut to ideal standards, for optimal light performance. Each diamond is hand-set by an in-house master jeweler.
Other Materials
Apart from high-quality gemstones, we also use the finest quality gold and platinum. A.JAFFE’s 18K gold alloy is not only nickel-free but also has up to 40 percent more palladium than other rings. Even after years of wear and tear, the superior alloy ensures that our 18K white gold rings do not develop a yellow tinge if the rhodium wears out.
A.JAFFE’s rose gold rings do not leave dark deposits or smudges on your skin. These smudges generally occur due to the heavy copper content other jewellers use. We combine 95 percent pure platinum with 5 percent iridium or ruthenium, to craft our platinum rings, resulting in a platinum engagement or wedding ring that is par excellence.
Superior Finish
A.JAFFE uses artisanal methods that require intricate skill, such as creating one pavé at a time, instead of following mass production methods. A.JAFFE jewelry items undergo six polishing stages, each requiring considerable time and effort.
Quality Checkpoints
Every ring we manufacture is scrutinized following a stringent 10-point quality checklist before it is presented to you. So it should not come as a surprise that creating a single A.JAFFE engagement ring can take up to 80 hours!
Patron and Celebrity Support
With a stellar legacy to show, A.JAFFE is widely supported and unofficially endorsed by the biggest celebrities.
A.JAFFE has featured in various prestigious publications including Martha Stewart Weddings, The Meredith Vieira Show, Marie Claire Magazine, The Wendy Williams Show, and many other glamorous ventures. Hey, if Bella Hadid and Jennifer Lawrence can swear by our jewelry, you have no excuse not to!
