Specialties
Our jewelry is dreamt up by our award-winning designers in our San Francisco studio -- whether it's a made-to-order, one-of-a-kind engagement ring or a personalized piece of fine jewelry -- and then it's brought to life by a master artisan. From the minute the materials are sourced to the moment you put it on, every aspect of our jewelry is ethically crafted -- because we believe you should feel good about the jewelry that you're wearing. Our showrooms are the perfect places to learn about diamonds, customize your dream design, or find your ideal ring style. Each location features a curated collection of customizable designs, and our expert consultants ensure your one-on-one appointment is personalized and tailored to your needs. Using our showroom designs as a guide, your jewelry specialist will walk you through the types of precious metals, diamond and gemstone qualities, including the 4 C's, and ring styles to discover what you love most. Our consultants can also help you with the process of creating your own one-of-a-kind ring or perfect piece of jewelry.
History
Established in 2005.
In 2004, Co-Founder and CEO Beth Gerstein couldn't find a diamond engagement ring that was ethical, sustainable, and traceable. She wanted the sparkling symbol of her commitment to represent more than love; the perfect piece would also respect the planet and protect its future. On a mission to make the jewelry industry more sustainable and ethical, Beth -- alongside Eric Grossberg -- founded Brilliant Earth in 2005. From that first step through today, we've revolutionized the way jewelry is sourced, crafted, sold, and worn. We do not compromise between quality and conscience -- and neither do our customers.
