Harold Steven's Jewelers is known for educating clientèle on how to select quality diamonds. The store holds a philosophy, which differs from many other jewelry establishments. Unlike most jewelers, who market finished products, this shop sells loose diamonds. Customers are encouraged to buy diamonds, since this method allows the jeweler to accurately grade the stone's color, cut, clarity and weight. Once a guest has selected a loose diamond, then jewelry is designed to accompany the precious stone.
