ANCASTER, ON, October 10, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ — H&Z Diamond Centre is pleased to announce it has been named Best Jewellery Store in the Shopping category of the 2026 Hamilton Spectator Readers’ Choice Awards. The recognition covers the store’s service area across Hamilton, Ancaster, Burlington, Caledonia, and Brantford.
The Readers’ Choice Awards are determined through nominations and voting by members of the local community, highlighting businesses that residents recognize and support within their communities.
This recognition reflects the same approach the business has followed since it opened its doors in Ancaster in 2010: appointment-based consultations, direct pricing, and certified stones with no showroom markup.
Founded in 2010, H&Z Diamond Centre operates as a private, appointment-based jewellery store rather than a traditional retail showroom. Customers meet directly with the H&Z team to view stones and receive guidance before making a purchase, rather than moving through a rotating sales floor.
The store’s services include Canadian designer diamond engagement rings and wedding bands, custom jewellery design, jewellery repair, watch repair, jewellery appraisal, and the redesign or re-purposing of existing pieces. All diamonds sold by H&Z, whether lab grown or natural Canadian, are certified by IGI or GIA. Rings are fitted and finished in-house.
In addition to natural diamonds, H&Z offers lab-grown diamonds that are chemically and optically identical to mined stones, independently certified by the same laboratories, and priced at a significant discount compared to mined diamonds. The store also carries Canadian diamonds, which are mined under Canadian environmental and labour standards, are conflict-free and traceable, and arrive laser-inscribed with a certificate of origin. In both categories, the prices are the best in the area.
Located at 1142 Wilson Street West in Ancaster, H&Z Diamond Centre serves customers throughout Hamilton, Ancaster, Burlington, Caledonia, and Brantford. The store has built its reputation over more than a decade in the community, with jewellery repair in particular becoming a service customers frequently return for and recommend to others. This is also witnessed by the high ranking it gets in Google Reviews.
As H&Z Diamond Centre continues to serve the Hamilton-area jewellery market, the store remains focused on the same private, consultation-based model that has defined the business since it opened in Ancaster.
