No two diamonds are alike—and yet so much jewelry looks exactly like what she’s wearing, dammit! Uncover flashes of originality at Cohasset Jewelers, a family business well into its third decade.

For guaranteed one-off wonders, plunder the strong estate section or hit its annual blowout sale in August.
