Our Story

 I started as a kid collecting crystals, fascinated by their beauty. That passion led me to the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), where I studied gemology and deepened my love for both the science and the artistry of jewelry. Also becoming a National Association of Jewelry Appraisers Member while continuing education and working as a Professional jewelry appraiser hearing stories of how clients were given their jewelry. 

Growing up, I was always drawn to jewelry — not just for how it looked, but for the meaning it carried, and how gems and jewelry are timeless.

I didn’t want to just make jewelry to sell. I wanted to create a timeless moment of giving — one that would be remembered forever.

Through a vision I had during deep meditation. ...I created GEMSTEM: a jewelry presentation box designed to be placed inside a bouquet of roses.

Because roses are “I love you today” …
But diamonds are “I love you forever.”
