This week it’s all things C! Clarity, carats, cut and colour. Jaco Voigt chats to Kate from Bespoke by Kate about diamonds. As a business, Kate will assist in not only gauging and guessing (almost always correctly) a ring size, but she will source, design, and custom make bespoke jewellery pieces to suit both your style and pocket.
