I was a diamond novice looking for a special stone for my wife.  I searched online for a loose diamond and ended up making my purchase from Washington Diamond.  They came highly rated and I was not disappointed.  I worked with Walter Via who patiently took the time, both in person and by email, and provided the information necessary to help me make an informed purchasing decision.  I never felt sales pressure.  Washington Diamond prices were very competitive with online direct sellers and I could physically see the stone prior to purchase. I would highly recommend Washington Diamond.  Scott R. Manassas, VA  6/3/09

I'm so glad my husband went here for my engagement ring instead of a generic retail shop. When we went back to get our wedding bands, I felt so special :) with the individual attention they gave us. I love going back to get my rings cleaned... they remember me!  M, 3/24/09

I never imagined that I would have a hand in customizing my earrings. You took time to listen to my ideas and offered suggestions. The result is wonderful. I love the uniqueness, simplicity, and elegance of my special earrings. Your patience, understanding, and thoughtfulness make Washington Diamond stand out among your competitors. - Kitty and Frank D.

Tom, I want to thank you and your team for everything they accomplished and did to make our wedding special and to provide Rosemary with an exquisite retirement gift. I have truly found my jeweler and look forward to a continued relationship. It is a pleasure to work with such a outstanding, professional, customer orientated company. JK... London, England

WD is not like any other jewelery store. We bought our wedding rings from them in 2004, and every time I visit the store, they know me by name and ask about my husband and our new daughter. Since then, I have bought other pieces from them and will have them make a special ring for my Mother on her 50th Bday. We have had others ask about my wedding ring and if it was hand made just for me. When you buy from them, you know you are not getting a ring that another bride has. Their designs are unique and one of a kind.They are very personal but do not force you to buy from them. But rather make sure you are fully informed about the product, whether you purchase from them or not. They don't follow you around in the store, asking you 50 questions. No pressure whatsoever!! I will NEVER shop anywhere else. WD is the place for us!! by Shawnita Marshall

Hi Tom, I'm sorry I did not get back to you earlier to convey the news of how my engagement to Melanie went. However Melanie was very elated when I proposed and her eyes exploded with delight when I presented the enegagement ring to her aboard our sailboat on the Annapolis bay in October. She still cant get over how beautiful it is and I doubt never will!!

Everyone who see's it comments on its beauty and design. You really did a great job with the setting the more I look at it. The whole diamond buying process with you, will stay in my mind as a very smooth purchase and an outstanding price for a special ring that will be with us for a lifetime. Thanks so much. Darren
