THE QUALITY COMMITMENT
8:15 PM
My line, the line I am working towards launching this Spring (maybe even late March if the stars align and we move into our new house sooner than we think!) has consisted of many ups and downs, sourcing and quality control - of course. You may not see what is so special right off-the-bat about my debut collection because it is built of everyday classics with a few new twists, but once you see and feel our jewelry in person, you and your heart will know the difference.

Last Fall, I enrolled and completed a 20 chapter diamond grading course with GIA after a dealer was dishonest and refused to stand by the misrepresentation of their goods. I know this forum is not the place for a rant and I intently focus on positivity, but now that will never happen to me again and therefore it will not happen to you.
I am occasionally asked by jewelry professionals and I can't believe this even comes out of their mouth :
"Why do you use such high quality diamonds... No one will know the difference and it will drive the price down."
Just so you know, the same jewelers with those questions either came back around and wanted a piece for themselves (which is the highest compliment) or gave me praise for standing by my commitment to quality. Although, I never really felt like there was another option.
