Our factory started beginning 1923, named Frans Andries. A polishing factory of diamonds with 32 diamondcutters. In 1954, it became a real big enterprise, Andries and Cie Pvba, with a total of 221 diamondcutters. Indead, a real family-business. Buying the rough stones in the Antwerp diamond-exchange, they all been cutted in our factory in Ramsel. This is a small city in the province Antwerp, a city on the border of the "Kempen". Because times were changing and handwork and labor were getting higher, we closed down our plant in Ramsel in 1987 and the diamondmanufacturers had to start the production in foreign countries. In 1988, our name changed in "Daems Bvba"

"It is not my intention to overload my website with difficult words, I try to explain all intrested people how diamonds are produced overhere since years. Believe me, the diamond-business is a very complicate and difficult business. It is impossible for me to explain my whole experience in a few minutes. It is not only color and clarity which are important, but all small figures together makes a diamond to an excellent brilliant. The most important is that you will love your diamond. Don't buy diamonds like share's as investment. A diamond is made to wear in a adapted jewel."
