In the heart of Germany's gemstone capital, Idar-Oberstein, an amazing brand in the world of jewelry craftsmanship was born - Vikar Ahmed. Known as "Vikar The German Jeweler," he has set new standards for luxury and exclusivity that resonate far beyond his homeland.
Vikar's latest masterpiece, a stunning diamond ring to be delivered during Phillip Pleins fashion week, is a testament to his unwavering commitment to perfection. This oval-shaped beauty, set in 18k palladium white gold, is a true work of art. Its center boasts a River E clarity VVS diamond, certified by the prestigious GIA, ensuring unparalleled quality. The diamond's cut and symmetry are nothing short of excellent, with perfect proportions and ratios. The band features a flawless collection of diamonds, adding an extra layer of opulence.
But creating this masterpiece wasn't an easy feat. It took Vikar several months to find the perfect oval diamond. Factors like the bow tie effect, thickness, table, and ratio had to be meticulously considered. The result, however, is a ring with an estimated carat weight between 4 to 5 carats, and a price tag that boasts six digits.
Vikar, has earned a reputation globally for supplying the highest quality jewelry products. Vikar's journey began at the age of 17, where he juggled various jobs in Germany and scoured small gem and jewelry fairs across the globe.
