Frans De Hantsetters (1888)

Diamond cutter and co-founder with Marcel Verhaere of the company De Hantsetters & Verhaere (DHV), specialized in cutting and marketing diamonds in Antwerp.

After the war, the company moved to the "Diamantclub van Antwerpen" in the famous Pelikaanstraat, and took off thanks to the economic recovery and the American demand.


Hendrik De Hantsetters (1924)

Under the joint management of Hendrik De Hantsetters and Jan Verhaere, De Hantsetters & Verhaere (DHV) establishes itself as a major player in Antwerp, especially renowned for its "fine cut".

DHV became "Sightholder" of De Beers in 1969 (privileged buyer of diamonds from the mining giant De Beers).

The excellence of French jewelry

 

Concerned with continuing a tradition of quality right down to the frames that dress our diamonds, we have chosen to offer a service of handmade custom jewelry by French craftsmen selected for their quality know-how.


The setting is not a simple accessory, the purity of the lines and the finishing touches must equal that of the diamond. A good work of jewelry adapts to perfection the proportions of the jewel to those of the chosen diamond and the finger size. We offer you the best of the great classics of French jewelry.
