The Process
01

Consultation

Bring your diamond to our downtown Toronto studio. Share your vision for the finished piece — or let Sergio guide you through the options. No pressure, no obligation.

02

Verification

Sergio uses his loupe to examine your stone under 10x magnification, checking whether it is safe to set. He documents the weight and dimensions to prepare the design according to its measurements. Please note that OROSERGIO cannot be held liable for pre-existing flaws or damage to client-supplied stones.

03

Design

Collaborate on the setting style — solitaire, halo, vintage, Toi et Moi, or something entirely custom. Sergio creates a 3D CAD rendering so you can see the finished piece before production begins.

04

Crafting & Delivery

Your diamond is expertly set into the finished piece by Sergio and his team. Final inspection and presentation. Your stone, your masterpiece, ready to wear.

The Journey

Your Diamond's Journey Through Our Studio

When you entrust your diamond to OROSERGIO, it receives the same meticulous care and attention as a stone worth any amount. Here is exactly what happens from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave with your finished piece.

01 — Assessment

Detailed Examination

Sergio examines your diamond under 10x magnification using his loupe to determine whether the stone is safe to set. He notes any chips, inclusions, or structural concerns and documents the weight and dimensions to prepare the design.

02 — Documentation

Photograph & Measure

Your diamond is weighed on a precision scale and measured for exact dimensions. Sergio photographs the stone for internal reference and rendering purposes. This documentation helps ensure accuracy throughout the design and crafting process.

03 — Insurance

Full Coverage

From the moment your stone is documented, it is fully insured under our studio's comprehensive coverage. This protection remains in effect throughout the entire design and crafting process until the finished piece is returned to your hands. Complete peace of mind.

04 — Design

Collaborative Creation

Sergio discusses setting options with you based on your diamond's unique characteristics and your personal style preferences. A CAD rendering is created so you can visualize the finished piece in three dimensions before any metalwork begins. Revisions are welcome until you are completely satisfied.

05 — Crafting

Expert Setting

Your diamond is set into the finished piece by Sergio and his team. This is the most critical step — the prongs or bezel must hold the stone securely while allowing maximum light to enter and reflect. Decades of experience ensure your diamond is set with precision and care.

06 — Return

Final Presentation

Your completed piece undergoes a final inspection under magnification to verify every detail meets our standards. It is then polished to perfection and presented to you along with care instructions, cleaning recommendations, and guidance on maintaining your new piece for years to come.

Settings

Setting Styles for Your Diamond

The setting you choose determines how your diamond is displayed, protected, and experienced. Each style offers a different aesthetic and practical benefits. Sergio will recommend the best options based on your stone's shape, size, and your lifestyle.

Solitaire

Solitaire

The timeless classic. A single diamond held by four or six prongs, allowing maximum light from all angles. Puts your stone front and centre with no distractions.

Halo

Halo

A circle of smaller diamonds surrounds your centre stone, creating the visual effect of a larger diamond while adding sparkle and dimension.

Three-Stone

Three-Stone

Your diamond takes the centre position, flanked by two complementary side stones. Symbolizes past, present, and future.

Bezel

Bezel

A thin band of metal wraps completely around the diamond, holding it securely with no prongs. Excellent protection for active lifestyles.

Vintage

Vintage

Milgrain edges, filigree, and hand-engraving evoke Art Deco, Edwardian, or Victorian eras. Ornate craftsmanship with old-world character.

Toi et Moi

Toi et Moi

Pairs your diamond with a complementary stone — another diamond, sapphire, emerald, or any gem that holds meaning for you.

I hope my experience can help you, this was a big important purchase for me so I didn't take it lightly and learned a lot along the way. I met three or four top rated diamond guys in Toronto, one in the same building as Sergio. The owner of one didn't even greet me, the other tried to sell me very badly included diamonds to fit my budget and requirements. They all have the same story we are wholesalers and sell to other stores and keep the best for our clients. That is not true and if you do your research you will know that its a very centralized marketplace for diamonds. Anyways, this lead me to go through the headache of buying my diamond online and finding a jeweler to set it. Now finding a jeweler to set it is another headache, you risk bringing an expensive stone to the wrong person, different sales stories and crazy pricing because they don't like that you are bringing your diamond, and at the end most of them outsource the work. But this finally lead me to Sergio, we spoke about diamonds and the ring, he didn't give me any stories, offered fair pricing and treated me like a real friend, not the fake vibe or feel like most I met before that tried to squeeze my budget with subpar product so they can keep fat margins. Sergio is a real jeweler with an actual workshop and makes everything in house. Had I met him before I would have let him source my diamond as well and save me from all trouble and hours searching online. It is always better to have a solid jeweler that can do everything for you. I found one at the end. Go see those other 5star diamond salesmen and you will understand. Sergio is a gem.

Sergio was very patient and kind. He helped me design a one-of-a-kind bracelet for my partner to signify an infinite loop. It took many design iterations to settle on something I liked, and Sergio was very patient and helpful throughout. The final piece was beautiful, and I absolutely loved it. Thank you to Sergio for allowing me to gift something so personal to my loved one.

Sergio was amazing to work with. My fiancée first discovered them at a bridal show when she tried on a ring she instantly loved. When I went in later, they already had all her info saved, which made the process so easy. From start to finish, they were professional, attentive, and made sure every detail was perfect. The quality and sparkle of the ring and diamonds are incredible, we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Sergio was an excellent consultant, guiding my fiancée through the many ring options with care and expertise. He was recommended to me by a coworker who cited his numerous 5-star reviews, and now I completely see why. I really appreciated how intentional he was about not influencing her decision, instead asking thoughtful questions that helped her uncover what she truly wanted. He also worked closely with me to find the best version of her design while maximizing my budget, which made a big difference. And somehow the ring was even better than we expected! Six stars ⭐️

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, and this is exactly what our Bring Your Own Diamond service is designed for. Whether your diamond is an heirloom passed down through generations, a stone you purchased independently, or a diamond removed from a previous setting, we welcome it into our studio. Sergio will carefully examine your stone under 10x magnification to assess its condition, identify any chips or inclusions, and determine the best setting options. Many of our Toronto clients bring diamonds with deep personal significance, and we treat every stone with the respect and care its history deserves.

Absolutely. While diamonds are the most common stones clients bring in, we also work with sapphires, emeralds, rubies, morganite, and a wide range of other precious and semi-precious gemstones. Coloured gemstones open up exciting design possibilities — a deep blue sapphire in a vintage-inspired setting, an emerald paired with diamond accents, or a vibrant ruby as the centrepiece of a modern cocktail ring. Sergio will evaluate your gemstone and discuss setting options that protect the stone while showcasing its unique colour and brilliance to maximum effect.

This is one of our most requested services. Many clients inherit rings that hold tremendous sentimental value but feature settings that do not match their personal style. We carefully remove the diamond from its original setting, assess its condition, and work with you to design a completely new piece around it. The original gold can often be melted down and incorporated into the new design as well, preserving even more of the family connection. The result is a piece that honours the past while feeling entirely yours — modern, personal, and meaningful.

We work with virtually all diamond shapes and sizes, including round brilliant, princess, oval, cushion, emerald cut, pear, marquise, radiant, and asscher. During your initial consultation, Sergio examines your stone under magnification to check for structural issues such as chips, feathers, or significant inclusions near the girdle that could affect setting security. In rare cases where a stone has damage that makes it unsuitable for certain settings, he will recommend alternative options that protect the diamond while still creating a stunning piece. The vast majority of diamonds — regardless of age, origin, or grading — are perfectly suitable for custom setting.

Yes, and this is something we take very seriously. From the moment your diamond enters our studio, it is fully insured against loss, theft, and damage until the completed piece is returned to you. We document every stone upon intake — weighing and measuring it for our records. Our studio maintains comprehensive insurance coverage specifically for client stones, so you can have complete peace of mind throughout the design and crafting process. We also recommend that you maintain your own jewellery insurance for the finished piece once it leaves our care.

The typical timeline from design approval to completion is three to four weeks. This includes stone verification and documentation, collaborative design work and CAD rendering, crafting the setting in your chosen metal, carefully setting your diamond, and final quality inspection and polishing. The timeline can vary depending on the complexity of your design and the metal you choose — platinum pieces may take longer due to the specialized techniques required. If you have a specific deadline such as a proposal date or anniversary, let Sergio know during your consultation and we will plan the project timeline accordingly to ensure your piece is ready when you need it.
