WINNIPEG, MB: At Omori Diamonds in Winnipeg, father-son custom jewellers Jim and Chris Omori have recently noticed more engagement ring and diamond buyers seeking natural diamonds. Over the past five years, they first witnessed an increase in demand for lab-created diamonds, and are now seeing renewed interest in natural diamonds once again. Jim and Chris are always carefully observing the diamond consumer market and are curious to see where this latest trend will go.
Omori Diamonds is a custom jewellery business that specializes in one-of-a-kind engagement and wedding rings as well as many other jewellery pieces.

Father-and-son founders, Jim and Chris Omori, are dedicated to creating stunning pieces that capture the tastes and preferences of their clients and tell their love stories through the highest quality craftspersonship.

Carefully observing and responding to diamond trends is an essential element of business success at Omori Diamonds. In an industry where anticipating client preferences is key, Jim and Chris have noticed that, over the past five years, the pendulum first swung toward lab-created diamonds and now seems to be swinging back again.
“Five years ago, we sold about two natural diamonds to one lab diamond,” said Jim Omori, co-founder and owner of Omori Diamonds. “Three years ago, it switched to probably five lab-created diamonds to every one natural diamond, and now it’s gone to about fifty-fifty. This is an interesting trend and we are curious to see where it heads.”
