About Us
Our designs start out as a simple idea set to paper before becoming a tangible work of art. We handpick the most visually appealing gems such as natural diamonds, moissanite, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, opals and many more. Our pearls are natural and hand-chosen for their beauty, quality, value and size.
Using only the finest Argentum silver (93.5), Sterling silver (92.5), platinum, and/or 10kt, 14kt, 18kt, white or yellow gold in our pieces, we offer true, long-lasting wearability for years to come. Our gem cutters are artfully and skillfully some of the finest artisans in the business. These professionals cut, facet, and polish our gems to reflect the optimal light dispersion (shine) for each individual stone.
Our classic jewelry designs will remain timeless keepsakes for years to come!
We look forward to building a close relationship and providing all of your jewelry needs.
