Susan was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She took the time to educate us, answer our questions, and guide us with genuine care. Together we selected a diamond and ring combination that my wife absolutely loves. The pricing was very competitive, and the one-on-one experience plus the ability to customize every detail made it truly special. It felt like we were creating something meaningful that will be cherished forever.

We had the distinct pleasure of working with Susan while selecting our engagement ring, and the experience was truly exceptional.
Susan devoted considerable time to guiding us through a wide variety of stones, thoughtfully explaining their characteristics and nuances so we could make a well-informed decision. At no point did we feel rushed; instead, she demonstrated remarkable patience and professionalism across multiple appointments. Most impressive was her attentiveness — she carefully noted our design preferences and incorporated every detail we expressed into her recommendations.
Her ability to thoughtfully guide my fiancée in finding a ring that perfectly reflected her style and personality was especially meaningful. Susan struck the perfect balance between offering expert insight and allowing us the space to make a decision with confidence.
We were so pleased with the engagement ring that we returned to purchase our wedding bands as well — a true testament to the trust and confidence Susan inspired throughout the process. We are deeply grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a truly personalized and elevated experience.

Susan is literally the best!
She made the whole engagement and wedding ring process super easy and fun, answered all our questions, and really helped us zone in on what we were looking for. She’s really great at styling and pairing rings to match our taste, and even let us try on some ridiculously huge diamonds just for fun!
Couldn’t have asked for a better experience or a better person to help us through it - thank you, Susan!

Working with Susan has been the easiest part of our engagement and wedding planning process. From the first time we met her she was very educational and laid out all of our options so we could feel like we were truly making informed decisions. She never made us feel like we were asking for too much or like our customizations weren’t possible. It made us feel like we had a truly unique ring. When it was time to purchase the engagement she made the whole process very convenient as I was out of town for work. We were able to handle everything via email which is what I preferred. I never felt pressured to buy something or like she was just trying to make a sale. Buying our wedding bands was just as great of an experience. We were a little behind on that process but Susan went above and beyond to get us our rings in time for our upcoming wedding. We can’t wait to wear them!

My experience buying an engagement ring through Dimend SCAASI was nothing short of amazing, and I can’t recommend them enough to anyone shopping for a ring or jewelry.
What stood out about Dimend SCAASI was their selection of settings and stones at some of the most competitive prices. I was a little nervous about buying a ring online, so I booked an in-person appointment, and I’m very glad I did. The team was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They patiently walked me through the entire process, showing me all the different settings, cuts, and options while answering every question I had.
Working directly with Isaac was a highlight. After I shared my budget and preferences, he found a stone that matched exactly what I wanted and ordered it that same day. As another thoughtful touch, he scheduled a time for me to view the diamond in person once it arrived and assured me that if I wasn’t completely happy with it, he’d replace it at no cost and no questions asked.
The entire team made the process an absolute joy. All communication was responsive, and they were very accommodating with my engagement timeline, ensuring the ring was ready well in advance. When I picked it up, the diamond grading report, insurance details, and additional paperwork were all prepared and ready, and the ring itself looked stunning. Everything turned out great and my Fiancé absolutely loved the ring.
I’m thrilled I found Dimend SCAASI and can’t say enough good things about the experience. My Fiancé and I are already looking forward to returning for our wedding bands!

dimend SCAASI’s only location is in the downtown Loop area of Chicago, Illinois on Jeweler’s Row at 5 South Wabash, Suite 1734 (17th floor).
How Competitive is dimend SCAASI?
When it comes to purchasing a diamond, numerous factors influence the price. At dimend SCAASI Jeweler, we exclusively offer GIA, IGI, and GCAL certified diamonds, ensuring that our clients receive the best possible value. Our rings are meticulously handcrafted to perfectly accommodate your chosen diamond and finger size, utilizing cutting-edge CAD design and 3D printing techniques. This meticulous approach results in superior quality, capable of withstanding the test of time, albeit at a higher production cost. We firmly believe that an engagement is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, and thus, we spare no expense in our commitment to creating the finest quality rings available.
Are All of Your Diamonds from Your Website Available to View in Person at Your Store?
dimend SCAASI hand-picks our vendors to upload their inventory onto our website from all over the world. This allows us to offer a huge selection of diamonds in every shape, color, clarity, and cut grade to our customers. For viewing diamonds in our store, we are limited to what is locally accessible through our local vendors and our own inventory. This means that when you come in, we will have a wide variety to show you, but not every single diamond shown on our website is available to view in person.
Can I Place a Hold on a Diamond You Offer?
dimend SCAASI Jeweler is a stress-free no pressure environment. Our diamonds are available as first-come first-served basis. If you like a diamond you see listed on our site, buy it with confidence — you are always welcome to swap it for another diamond we offer without a loss.
Are Your Diamonds Conflict Free?
dimend SCAASI has zero tolerance policy towards conflict diamonds. We fully support the Kimberly Process which tracks diamonds from mine to market.

What Does the Term “Eye-Clean Diamond” Mean?
In the diamond industry, the term “eye-clean” refers to a diamond that, when held approximately 10 inches away from you and viewed face-up, does not exhibit visible inclusions.
How Do I Know the Diamond I Receive is the One I Purchased?
For your protection and safety, our diamonds are laser inscribed with your certificate number, which is viewable under magnification on the Girdle of your diamond.
It Looks Like There’s a Crack on the Side of My Diamond
Frequently, our customers inquire about a noticeable “crack” or a white “line” on the side view of their diamond, situated approximately one-third of the way down from the top. Rest assured, this line is not a crack or an inclusion. It is known as a “girdle reflection.” Due to the diamond’s pavilion acting as an internal mirror, it reflects the girdle, resulting in this phenomenon. It is important to note that this occurrence is common in almost every diamond shape and should not be a cause for concern.
What Side Diamonds Do You Set in Your Engagement Rings?
When the center stone is a mined diamond, the ring is set with mined side diamonds. If the center is lab grown, then the ring is set with lab grown side diamonds (excluding some fancy shapes).
Do You Insure Jewelry?
Although dimend SCAASI does not insure Jewelry, we provide you with an Appraisal which can be used to obtain insurance coverage. We recommend Jewelers Mutual, a highly regarded, dedicated Jewelry insurance company since 1913.
Do You Provide Insurance Appraisals?
We do offer appraisals for a small fee. This is the paperwork you will need when you insure your jewelry.
How Often Should My Jewelry Be Cleaned?
Engaging in regular preventative maintenance for your jewelry is highly recommended. It is advisable to take your jewelry for professional inspection and cleaning once or twice a year, with twice a year being the optimal frequency to address minor issues before they escalate into major problems. Fortunately, cleaning your jewelry at home is a simple process that does not require any extravagant materials. A mild solution of water and dish soap is sufficient to eliminate most dirt and debris from platinum, gold, or silver jewelry.
Can My Ring Be Resized?
Absolutely! In general, most precious metal rings can be resized to make them larger or smaller according to your preference. However, certain factors such as blended metals, stones encircling the entire band, and vintage rings may require a case-by-case evaluation to determine the feasibility of resizing. Rest assured, our experts will carefully assess these unique circumstances to provide the best possible solution for your specific ring.
Can You Repair All Jewelry?
Yes! We can fix most precious jewelry.

How Can I Figure Out Ring Size? For Him? For Her?
