==History==
Established in 2005 by Vadim Weinig and Tobias Kormind, 77 Diamonds emerged as a pioneering force in the early stages of online jewelry retail. The founders set out to revolutionize the diamond industry by offering finely crafted jewelry at affordable prices with diverse choices. The company's specialization lies in engagement rings and diamond jewelry, drawing inspiration from the historical significance of the year 1477 when the tradition of exchanging engagement rings began in Western culture.
As 77 Diamonds gained popularity, Vadim and Tobias opened their first showroom in London's prestigious Mayfair district in 2009. This pivotal moment marked the company's transition from a simple online platform to a well-known brand. Today, 77 Diamonds continues to expand its presence, with showrooms located in London, Manchester, Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, Zurich, Stockholm with Dubai opening soon. These showrooms offer personalized consultations with expert advisors, ensuring a tailored experience for each customer.
The sourcing process at 77 Diamonds involves the direct acquisition of diamonds from mines located in various countries, including South Africa, and Canada (Russia was removed from the website early into the Ukrainian war in 2022). These diamonds arrive at the workshop already pre-cut, streamlining the supply chain for enhanced efficiency and quality assurance.
