Billy Stagner has always worked well with his hands. From his first job manicuring lawns, to his carpentry apprenticeship, his natural ability to work well with his hands has been apparent from a very young age. Billy began to work with his friend that was a jeweler, and learned how to repair and design jewelry. Billy's natural talent led him to begin his career as a Master Jeweler.
He continued his education with the Gemological Institute of America and was awarded a Certificate in Diamonds in May of 1991, as well as a Certificate in Colored Gems in July of 1992. Billy continues to perfect his skills by learning new techniques, and always staying up to date in the latest jewelry trends. Billy's passion for jewelry led him to open his own store when he was only seventeen.
He established his store in 1975 near the Wedgewood subdivision entrance on the corner of 2351 and Blackhawk. In 1979, Billy had the opportunity to expand by relocating to the heart of Friendswood when he moved his business to the Stonesthrow Shopping Center.

The word carat derives from the word carob, a Mediterranean seed, which has an extremely consistent weight for measuring.
The greater the carat weight, the rarer, and more valuable the diamond becomes.
Five metric carats weighs exactly 1 gram.
Some people want the largest diamond possible.
If size is a priority, we at Acori Diamonds & Design can help you classify the proper cut, color and clarity to fit your budget economically, and fit your jewelry beautifully.
Many of our engagement rings can fit diamonds up to 5.00 carats, but each ring has different size constraints based on its size and the type of setting.

Is this always the right choice?
The larger the diamond, chances are the more inclusions it likely has, and because it's larger, these inclusions are typically even more visible than on a smaller diamond.
But most importantly, if the diamond cut isn't proportioned correctly, it won't return the maximum amount of light through the top of the diamond.
This illustrates that no matter how large the diamond, its cut and proportions determine how brilliant the diamond really is.

While our jewelry was created to last a lifetime, there are some factors that can contribute to the everyday wear and tear of your fine jewelry.
Because of the high value and rarity of certain jewelry, some people like to store their jewelry in a safe when not in use.
If you have individual gemstones, a soft pouch is good for keeping them from coming in contact with other hard surfaces.
Store silver jewelry in a cool, dry place, preferably in a soft piece of felt or cloth.
Ask one of our sales representatives about getting a jewelry box for all your valued treasures.
