Certainty In Value Awaits You Here
I’he buyer depending to quite an extent on the merchant,
it is most important that the house should be of undoubted
responsibility. It is. therefore, fitting that your purchase
should be identified with this establishment. The value that
yop get for your money is by far more important than the
price you pay for a diamond. As an instance, the better
grades have advanced continuously until their worth has
more than doubled what they wore seven or eight years ago.
From the fact that our facilities for handling them are as
eeonomieal as is possible to make them, we are in a position
to supply you at as little cost as the same grade stone can be
had anywhere.
We invite you to see our splendid display, at which time,
if you wish to lake advantage of it. we will explain to you our
partial payment plan.
