Because of our dedication to the art and craft of fine jewelry, we’re able to pour quality and skill into everything we do. Every single person on our staff, from the most senior jeweler to our junior designers carries some form of diploma or certification in the jewelry industry, including GIA Diploma or DCA certification. That means we’ve received certification from the Diamond Council of America and/or the Gemological Institute of America which means that we’re able to properly evaluate and grade diamonds and other gemstones according to a detailed variety of characteristics. One of the many benefits of having a graduate gemologist and diamond graders on staff.
