Introduction
The Diamond Museum is a highly regarded specialty museum located in the center of Amsterdam, adjacent to the famous National and Van Gogh Museums. Founded by the Netherlands' long-standing diamond processing company, Coster Diamonds, in 2007, the museum showcases high-quality diamonds from around the world and the history and craftsmanship of diamonds. This is also because Amsterdam is one of the world's most well-known diamond trading markets, and its diamond processing skills are also the most excellent.
Visitors are recommended to watch a short film introducing diamonds at the entrance. The short film provides multiple languages, including English, allowing audiences to understand the birth and processing of diamonds from different angles, from the formation of naked diamonds hundreds of millions of years ago, to excavation, processing and cutting, and finally becoming diamonds on precious rings and necklaces.
Visitors can enjoy a series of exquisite diamond collections, as well as the quality standards of diamonds - the four Cs: cut, carat weight, color, and clarity. The museum also displays replicas of royal crowns from various countries and the history of Amsterdam's diamond processing industry.
In addition, the museum's must-see exhibits include replicas of Queen Elizabeth's crown, which is highly sought-after by tourists due to its historical significance and exquisite craftsmanship. Here, you can better understand the charm and art of diamonds from different angles. Address Paulus Potterstraat 8, 1071 CZ Amsterdam, Netherlands
