Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 1 of 15

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT


FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS
HOUSTON DIVISION

ALPHA CREATIONS, INC.

Plaintiff,
V.
DANIEL K FINE JEWELRY
USA, LLC.
Defendant.

CIVIL ACTION NO. 4:16-cv-02390


JURY TRIAL DEMANDED

COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY JUDGMENT


Plaintiff, Alpha Creations, Inc., (Alpha Creations) for its complaint against Defendant,
Daniel K Fine Jewelry USA, LLC (Daniel K), avers that:
SECTION I. PARTIES
1.

Plaintiff, Alpha Creations is a corporation organized and existing under the laws

of the State of Texas, with its principal place of business at One Arena Place, 7322 Southwest
Freeway, Suite 1810., Houston, Harris County, TX 77074.
2.

On information and belief, Defendant, Daniel K is a corporation organized under

the laws of the State of New York, and may be served at its principal place of business at 589 5th
Avenue, New York, New York 10017.
SECTION II. JURISDICTION
3.

The Court has subject matter jurisdiction over the lawsuit pursuant to the

provisions of 28 U.S.C. 1331, 1338, 2201, 2202, and under 15 U.S.C. 15 because the action
concerns potential acts of patent infringement, patent validity, and unfair competition.
1

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 2 of 15

4.

The federal courts have exclusive subject matter jurisdiction over all cases arising

under the patent laws. 28 U.S.C. 1338(a). An action for patent infringement or one for a
declaratory judgment that a patent is invalid, unenforceable, or not infringed arises under the
patent laws. C.R. Bard, Inc. v. Schwartz, 716 F.2d 874 (Fed. Cir. 1983).
5.

Alpha Creations brings this claim for a declaratory judgment under both Federal

Rule of Civil Procedure 57 and 28 U.S.C. 2201, 2202 seeking a declaratory judgment of noninfringement and invalidity of United States Patent Nos. 7,269,973 and United States Patent
D513,712 (collectively, the patents in suit), both purportedly owned by Daniel K.
6.

Declaratory relief is necessary because Plaintiff has a reasonable apprehension of

being sued for patent infringement by Defendant. Plaintiffs apprehension is reasonable and
realistic in view of Defendants threats as to Plaintiffs acts in the United States.

Such

apprehension has a chilling effect on competition in this country and is likely to cause harm by
interfering with Plaintiffs business opportunities.
7.

Venue is proper in this district pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1391(b) and 1400(b)

because it is in this district in which a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the
claim occurred, or a substantial part of the property that is the subject of the action is situated.
SECTION III. FACTS
8.

Alpha Creations has manufactured and sold to customers in the United States a

3/4 U-prong eternity ring in 18K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold and platinum, and a
1/2 U-prong eternity ring in 18K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold and platinum
(collectively the accused rings), from 2009 until recently, on its online diamond and jewelry
Internet retailing website www.briangavindiamonds.com.
9.

On or about July 26, 2016, Alpha Creations received a cease and desist letter from

the law firm of Ezra Sutton, P.A., on behalf of Daniel K, a true and correct copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1. Copies of the patents in suit are attached to the letter (Exhibits 1-A
and 1-B), and screenshots of the accused rings apparently taken from the Alpha Creations
website, www.briangavindiamonds.com, were also attached (Exhibit 1-C).

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 3 of 15

10.

In this letter, Daniel K demanded that Alpha Creations (1) cease all sales of its

infringing U Eternity Wedding bands and settings, (2) provide an accounting of all sales made
by Alpha Creations of infringing products sold, (3) immediately turn over all molds, silicone
molds, models, waxes and CAD files, (4) immediately turn over all open orders and (5) agree to
identify retailers or other customers using Alpha Creations website to obtain casting or custom
orders; threatened that if Alpha Creations did not comply, we have been authorized to
commence a lawsuit for infringement and unfair competition in federal court for an accounting
of profits, damages, an injunction, and attorneys fees; and noted unless an immediate reply by
email was sent, we will begin to prepare and file in the Federal Court the Summons and
Complaint as authorized by Daniel K Fine Jewelry USA. See Exhibit 1.
11.

On information and belief, Daniel K asserted the same patents against four other

parties and on May 27, 2016 filed complaints in the Southern District of New York for patent
infringement against: Forevermark US Inc. (Case No. 1:16-cv-04004-AJN), Exhibit 2 attached
hereto; Blue Nile Inc. (Case No. 1:16-cv-04001-LGS), Exhibit 3 attached hereto; JR Castings &
Findings Inc. (Case No. 1:16-cv-04002-PGG), Exhibit 4 attached hereto; and Unique Settings of
New York Inc. (Case No. 1:16-cv-04004-JPO), Exhibit 5 attached hereto; asserting both the 712
and 973 patents.
12.

On information and belief, Daniel K has sent similar cease and desist letters to

other jewelers in the United States who have ceased selling eternity band rings with U-shaped
seats.
13.

A justiciable case or controversy therefore exits between Alpha Creations and

Daniel K concerning, inter alia, Alpha Creations alleged infringement of the 712 and 973
patents, imminent fear of suit and the validity of the 712 and 973 patents.
14.

On February 20, 2004, Daniel Koren, the applicant on both of the patents in suit,

executed and filed a trademark application on behalf of Daniel K, Inc. for the trademark
UTERNITY, United States Serial No. 78/371,065 (the UTERNITY application), submitting the
following full page advertisement from the February 2004 issue of Couture International Jeweler
and/or point of sale display, as a specimen then in use:

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 4 of 15

February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad/Point of Sale Display

A true and correct copy of the 065 UTERNITY registration file history is attached hereto as Exhibit
6, and includes a copy of the UTERNITY trademark application, with the specimens of use
(hereinafter February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad) at pp. 29-30 and 33-36.
4

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 5 of 15

15.

On information and belief, Daniel Koren made and/or made arrangements to

make the UTERNITY ring shown in the February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad; took
and/or made arrangements to take photographs of the UTERNITY ring shown in the February 2004
Couture International Jeweler Ad; and personally arranged for the placement of the February 2004
Couture International Jeweler Ad, all prior to February 20, 2004.
16.

In the UTERNITY trademark application signed and filed on February 20, 2004,

Daniel Koren, after being warned that willful false statements and the like so made are punishable
by fine or imprisonment or both under 18 U.S.C. 1001, alleged dates of use for the UTERNITY mark
anywhere at least as early as October 1, 2003, and use in interstate commerce at least as early as
December 2, 2003. Daniel Koren also stated the specimens submitted showed the mark as then
used in commerce and consisted of advertising and point of purchase displays. See Exhibit 6, pp.
26-27.
17.

On or about March 2, 2005, the United States Patent and Trademark Office sent

a Notice of Publication under 12(a); published the UTERNITY mark for opposition in the Official
Gazette on or about March 22, 2005; and issued Reg. No. 2,962,475 on June 14, 2005, which again
recited the 2003 dates of use and the February 20, 2004 filing date. See Exhibit 6, pp. 20-21.
18.

Contemporaneously with the publication and registration of the UTERNITY

trademark based on the February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad as a specimen, and more
than one year after filing the UTERNITY trademark application, on April 29, 2005, Daniel Koren
filed U.S. Patent Application Ser. No. 11/118,819, entitled Eternity Band with U-Shaped Seats for
Gemstones, which eventually issued as the 973 patent; and then on May 4, 2005, U.S. Patent
Application Ser. No. 29/229,174, also entitled Eternity Band with U-Shaped Seats for
Gemstones, which eventually issued as the 712 patent. True and correct copies of the file
histories of the applications issued as the 973 and 712 patents, downloaded from the United
States Patent and Trademark Office are attached hereto as Exhibits 7 and 8, respectively.
19.

The ring published in the 2004 Couture International Jeweler February Ad was

virtually identical to the rings illustrated and claimed in the 973 and 712 patents, and but for the
examiners inability to consider the 2004 Couture International Jeweler February Ad the 973 and
712 patents would never have been granted.
5

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 6 of 15

20.

In the 973 patent application, Daniel Koren signed a Declaration for Utility or

Design Patent Application acknowledging the duty to disclose information which is material to
patentability as defined in 37 CFR 1.56; and declaring that all statements made of his own
knowledge are true and all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true;
and further that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false statements
and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment or both under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and
that such willful false statements may jeopardize the validity of the application or any patent
issued thereon. See Exhibit 7 at pp. 63-64.
21.

Daniel Koren and/or Ezra Sutton withheld the February 2004 Couture

International Jeweler Ad from disclosure to the patent examiner, and never cited it in the 973
patent application. See Exhibit 1-B and Exhibit 7.
22.

In the 712 patent application, Daniel Koren also signed a Declaration for Utility

or Design Patent Application acknowledging the duty to disclose information which is material to
patentability as defined in 37 CFR 1.56; and declaring that all statements made of his own
knowledge are true and all statements made on information and belief are believed to be true;
and further that these statements were made with the knowledge that willful false statements
and the like so made are punishable by fine or imprisonment or both under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and
that such willful false statements may jeopardize the validity of the application or any patent
issued thereon. See Exhibit 8 at pp. 27-28.
23.

In the 712 patent application, on May 12, 2005, Daniel Korens attorney, Ezra

Sutton, filed a Petition to Make Special so that the application would be advanced out of order
for earlier examination. The Petition to Make Special represented that a pre-examination search
was made of the records of the U.S. Patent Office by Ezra Sutton, and cited only three U.S.
Patents, concluding that the features set forth in the Claim patentably distinguish over the prior
art, and making no mention or other disclosure of the February 2004 Couture International
Jeweler Ad. See Exhibit 8 at pp. 14-17.
24.

Daniel Koren withheld the February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad from

disclosure to the patent examiner, and never cited it in the 712 patent application. See Exhibit
1-A and Exhibit 8.
6

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 7 of 15

25.

On information and belief, Daniel Koren and/or Ezra Sutton were well aware of

the February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad, were well aware of the duty of disclosure,
and deliberately withheld the February 2004 Couture International Jeweler Ad from the
examiners in both of the 973 and 712 patent applications.
26.

On information and belief, Daniel Koren executed a power of attorney appointing

Ezra Sutton and Ezra Sutton, P.A. to prosecute the UTERNITY registration and file a Declaration
Under Sections 8 and 15, which was filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office on or
about June 9, 2011. A copy of the submission by Ezra Sutton appears at pp. 13-19 of Exhibit 6.
27.

On or about June 15, 2015, Ezra Sutton, P.A., filed an Application for Renewal of

the UTERNITY registration. See Exhibit 6 at pp. 6-11.


28.

On information and belief, Daniel K and/or Ezra Sutton, the author of Daniel Ks

cease and desist letter of Exhibit 1, were aware that the February 2004 Couture International
Jeweler Ad had been withheld from the examiners in both of the 973 and 712 patent
applications, and that the 973 and 712 patents were invalid and unenforceable as a result.
29.

Daniel K has alleged, inferentially, that it is the owner of the entire rights, title

and interest in and to the patents in suit and that it has right to assert these patents against Alpha
Creations. There are no assignments recorded in the USPTO for the patents in suit.
30.

On information and belief, as recently as September 1, 2015, Daniel Koren and

Daniel K have been advertising that the UTERNITY mounting is patented, with knowledge that
the

patents

are

invalid

and/or

unenforceable.

See

Exhibit

(http://www.dayandnightmagazine.com/dani-by-daniel-k-celebrates-a-milestoneyear#sthash.wGBn76yA.dpbs).
31.

Daniel K continues to advertise on its website that the UTERNITY rings are

protected by the 973 and 712 patents. See Exhibit 10 (http://danielk.net/about.php?item=5).


32.

On information and belief, Daniel K is asserting the 973 and 712 patents in an

attempt to monopolize the U.S. market for eternity bands with U-shaped mounting seats and/or
lessen competition within this market.

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 8 of 15

33.

On information and belief, Daniel K is an international company and has a

dangerous probability of succeeding in its lessening of competition and/or monopolization in the


U.S. market for eternity bands with U-shaped mounting seats.
34.

The 973 patent includes six claims, each of which claims are directed to an

eternity band having a multi-stone circular setting in combination with gemstones or diamonds.
The claims at issue here are at least claims 1-6 which are directed to the aforesaid eternity band
having a multi-stone circular setting in combination with gemstones or diamonds.
35.

Each of the claims of the 973 patent is limited to a plurality of U-shaped seats

being connected in series to form a circular configuration, and two upstanding prongs which
are shared with the adjacent U-shaped seats for seating adjacent gemstones so the side wall
surfaces of adjacent gemstones touch each other to provide the appearance of a single
continuous gemstone surface extending all the way around the eternity band. See Exhibit 1 - B
at p. 19 (column 6/lines 7-13).
36.

The accused eternity rings sold by ALPHA CREATIONS do not include, inter alia, a

plurality of U-shaped seats being connected in series to form a circular configuration of touching
gemstones extending all the way around the eternity band.
37.

The only claim of the 712 patent includes the ornamental design for an eternity

band with U-shaped seats for gemstones as shown and described, and a circular configuration
corresponding to that of the 973 patent is shown.
COUNT I: DECLARATORY JUDGMENT OF INVALIDITY OF U.S. PATENT NO. 7,269,973
38.

Alpha Creations herein incorporates the allegations of paragraphs 1-37 as if fully

set forth at length.


39.

An immediate, real, and justiciable case or controversy exists between the parties

concerning the validity of the claims of the 973 patent.


40.

Claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid for at least the following reasons:
A.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 973 patent, the subject matter thereof was described in a printed publication in
the United States or a foreign country, and thus claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid
under Title 35 of the United States Code 102(b) (pre-AIA); and
8

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 9 of 15

B.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 973 patent, the subject matter thereof was in public use in the United States,
and thus claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid under Title 35 of the United States Code
102(b) (pre-AIA); and
C.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 973 patent, the subject matter thereof was on sale in the United States, and thus
claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid under Title 35 of the United States Code 102(b)
(pre-AIA); and
D.

The differences between the subject matter set forth in claims 1-6 of the

973 patent and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been
obvious, at the time of the purported invention thereof by Daniel Koren, to a person having
ordinary skill in that art. Thus, claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid under 35 U.S.C.
103.
41.

Alpha Creations seeks a judgment that Claims 1-6 of the 973 patent are invalid.

COUNT II: DECLARATORY JUDGMENT OF INVALIDITY OF U.S. PATENT NO. D513,712


42.

ALPHA CREATIONS herein incorporates the allegations of paragraphs 1-41 as if

fully set forth at length.


43.

An immediate, real, and justiciable case or controversy exists between the parties

44.

The claim of the 712 patent is invalid for at least the following reasons:
A.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 712 patent, the subject matter thereof was described in a printed publication in
the United States or a foreign country, and thus the claim of the 712 patent is invalid
under Title 35 of the United States Code 102(b) (pre-AIA); and
B.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 712 patent, the subject matter thereof was in public use in the United States,
and thus the claim of the 712 patent is invalid under Title 35 of the United States Code
102(b) (pre-AIA); and
9

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 10 of 15

C.

More than one year prior to the date of the application which matured

into the 712 patent, the subject matter thereof was on sale in the United States, and thus
the claim of the 712 patent is invalid under Title 35 of the United States Code 102(b)
(pre-AIA); and
D.

The differences between the subject matter set forth in the claim of the

712 patent and the prior art are such that the subject matter as a whole would have been
obvious, at the time of the purported invention thereof by Daniel Koren, to a person having
ordinary skill in that art. Thus, thus the claim of the 712 patent is invalid under Title 35 of
the United States Code 103 (pre-AIA).
45.

COUNT IX: WALKER PROCESS FRAUD, ATTEMPTED MONOPOLIZATION UNDER 15 U.S.C. 2


68.

ALPHA CREATIONS herein incorporates the allegations of paragraphs 1-67 as if

fully set forth at length.


69.

During prosecution of the patents in suit, the inventor Daniel Koren and

prosecuting attorney Ezra Sutton failed to cite material prior art information and publication
showing, among other things, the printed public disclosure, sale and public use of the claimed
subject matter by Daniel Koren more than one year prior to the filing date of the patents in suit;
and misrepresented the prior art in a deceptive manner.
70.

The inventor Daniel Koren and, on information and belief, the prosecuting

attorney Ezra Sutton, withheld this prior printed public disclosure, sale, and public use
information from the Patent and Trademark Office examiners with deceptive intent.
71.

On information and belief, if the inventor Daniel Koren and the prosecuting

attorney Ezra Sutton had not withheld critical prior art information and had not misrepresented
the prior art in a deceptive manner, the Patent and Trademark Office would not have issued
either of the patents in suit.
72.

As a result, the inventor Daniel Koren obtained the patents in suit by knowingly

and willfully misrepresenting facts to the Patent and Trademark Office.


73.

Daniel Korens fraud on the United States Patent and Trademark Office is in

violation of Section 2 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. 2. Through this fraud, Daniel K engaged in
predatory or uncompetitive conduct with a specific intent to monopolize. With respect to the
allegations in this claim, the relevant geographic market is the United States.
74.

There is a dangerous probability that Daniel K will achieve monopoly power in the

U-shaped seat eternity mounting ring market.

12

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 13 of 15

75.

As a result of Daniel Ks unlawful acts, Alpha Creations has suffered and will

continue to suffer antitrust injury in an amount to be proven at trial. First, Daniel K has caused
Alpha Creations to stop selling the accused eternity rings while investigating Daniel Ks
infringement allegations. Second, Daniel K has forced Alpha Creations to expend substantial
money, time and human resources in order to defend against the allegations.
COUNT X: SHAM LITIGATION, ATTEMPTED MONOPOLIZATION UNDER 15 U.S.C. 2
76.

ALPHA CREATIONS herein incorporates the allegations of paragraphs 1-75 as if

fully set forth at length.


77.

On information and belief, when Daniel K threatened Alpha Creations with

infringement of the patents in suit, it knew that the patents in suit were invalid and unenforceable.
78.

On information and belief, Daniel Ks threatened infringement action was

objectively baseless because no reasonable litigant could conclude that Daniel Ks infringement
allegations were reasonably calculated to elicit a favorable outcome based upon Daniel Korens,
Ezra Suttons, and Daniel Ks inequitable and fraudulent conduct in obtaining the patents in suit,
as described herein.
79.

On information and belief, Daniel K did not have probable cause to assert the

claims in the cease and desist letter (Exhibit 1), because the patents in suit were invalid and
unenforceable.
80.

Through this sham litigation, Daniel K engaged in predatory or uncompetitive

conduct with a specific intent to monopolize.


81.

There is a dangerous probability that Daniel K will achieve monopoly power in the

U-shaped seat eternity mounting ring market.


82.

As a result of Daniel Ks unlawful acts, Alpha Creations has suffered and will

continue to suffer antitrust injury in an amount to be proven at trial. First, Daniel K has caused
Alpha Creations to stop selling the accused eternity rings while investigating Daniel Ks
infringement allegations. Second, Daniel K has forced Alpha Creations to expend substantial
money, time and human resources in order to defend against the allegations.

Daniel Koren developed a passion for fine jewellery from a young age. As the son of a second-generation diamond
dealer, he was captivated by the glamour surrounding the precious stones industry and set upon a career in fine
jewellery, which ultimately led to the launch of his brand, Daniel K, in New York in 1999
In 2005, his signature designs, such as the unique Uternity rings with unusually set square emerald cut diamonds

Case 4:16-cv-02390 Document 1-9 Filed in TXSD on 08/08/16 Page 3 of 8


and the imaginative Reverso collection of multifunctional jewels, led to the entrepreneur scooping the JQ
Magazine Designer of the Year award. From that point, the Daniel K brand continued to grow in prestige and
presence, boasting numerous A-list celebrities among its clients and retailing in a diverse range of global markets
including the US, Dubai, Australia and Russia.

By 2014, Koren launched his first diffusion fine jewellery collection, labelled DANI by Daniel K, which showcases
jewels set in sterling silver. The new brand made its worldwide debut at Baselworld, and recently celebrated its first
milestone year in 2015. Day and Night magazine stopped by the brands booth at Baselworld 2015, for an
indulgent chat with Daniel Koren to find out the ins and outs of running a successful business.

Can you tell us about the history of the brand?


The history of DANI by Daniel K is a very short-lived one, where the concept of the diffusion line came up around
two years ago. However, we are only just celebrating our first year milestone at this years Baselworld from when
our jewellery was first showcased. DANI by Daniel K is an extension of my primary brand, Daniel K that
specialises in jewellery crafted with real gems set in either gold or platinum. It is different from its sister-brand
because the new brand marks a departure in traditional materials by only using sterling silver and simulated
jewels, which are all hand-cut and polished in-house. The collection retains the innovative designs and
craftsmanship associated with the Daniel K brand with a much more affordable price tag, allowing the larger public
to become a valuable DANI by Daniel K client.

What are the core values of DANI by Daniel K?
The core values are demonstrated in our marketing campaign slogan, I live my dream, which encourages women
to aspire to their ideal character. The brand enables luxury accessories to be within easy reach of the masses,
where women can feel beautiful and special whilst still looking after the purse-strings. Alternatively, women enjoy a
variety of options that offer different styles and colours and by choosing to wear DANI by Daniel K products, they
are able to buy as many jewels as they want without ever having to worry about insurance policies or losing the
jewellery on a big night out.

How do you ensure the brands creates authentic looking jewellery pieces?
My background is in the high-end jewellery market. I have experience working with real precious stones and
precious materials such as gold and platinum. With my existing knowledge and primary brand, Daniel K, I am able
to ensure all DANI by Daniel K creations are finished to an exceptional standard using high-quality simulated
stones that look and feel like the real thing. Our role doesnt stop at simply creating the finished piece; we also
ensure our packaging and window displays are presented in the same manner as if a customer was buying the
real thing. By combining these three aspects, we guarantee the customer will experience fine jewellery offered at a
reasonable price at its very best.

Do you design all the pieces yourself?


As the Creative Director of the company, all designs are finalised by me. I have a team of artists who are

instructed with details of what I am currently looking for in a piece and they go away and come up with sketches.
These drawings are then discussed in detail and I make the necessary changes to eliminate any design flaws.
Once I feel the product looks right, the final go-ahead is given to send the sketch to the production department to
create a 3D sample.

What advantages are there of buying simulated jewellery?


Other than what I mentioned earlier about purchasing costs and not worrying about insurance policies, the other
main advantage is for frequent fliers. When travelling with high-end jewellery it can be very stressful to deal with
customs, insurance forms and security of the valuables whilst staying in a hotel. Hence our trademark Travel with
luxury comes into play, where our customers can commission replicas of their own jewellery or simply purchase
our existing pieces to travel with confidence that their jewels are safeguarded and what they are wearing looks
authentic and stunning where nobody is the wiser.

Are there any plans to use gold in the future?


We use plated gold on some of our pieces. Whether its rose gold or yellow gold, we use 2.5 microns to ensure a
smooth finish. However, I should mention that we also offer a bespoke service to our clients, where if they want us
to substitute the existing silver material for a pure gold one, then we can do that as a special order service, but we
would not change the design, setting or stone of that particular piece just the casting of the metal would change.

What is this years most popular piece?
The best seller would have to be the Uternity Band Ring, which boasts a patented U-shaped mounting. This ring
can also be tailored under the Daniel K brand to be crafted in platinum with real diamonds.

Where are your materials sourced from?


Our simulated diamonds and cubic zirconia are sourced from the United States as they provide the purest,
cleanest and widest range of rough stones. However, the rubies, sapphires and other stones we use are
purchased from Switzerland from laboratories. The cutting and polishing of these stones are all done in-house.
