Who We Are:

New age diamond dealers - doing it better.

Akiva Goldman

Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois - Akiva is an entrepreneur who lives and breathes the wholesale diamond trade. Learning under the best mentors this business has, Akiva developed an understanding and passion for this nuanced business. At 17, you would find Akiva networking with and supplying loose diamonds to jewelry stores across the US and developing relationships that help jewelers get the goods they need.

Akiva spotted a hole in the market. A simple yet large one. That is: most jewelry operations - whether wholesale or retail - are run by people of the previous generation. Nothing wrong about it however the consumer mentality was advancing but the ways and marketing strategies of many jewelry businesses were based in the 2000’s.

“If I could take what I learned in Chicago and bring the same attitude, morals and knowledge to Miami - Ill do well.”

Settling in a small boxy office (280 sqft) in Miami’s Seybold Jewelers building - Akiva got to work.

While still maintaining and growing the wholesale business, Akiva took an approach to the retail market. Being vertically integrated from the backend wholesale supply and selling directly to consumers allowed Akiva to stay highly competitive. Learning from the best buyers in the world allowed for Akiva to provide a better education to the client and provide more value when buying or selling.

Over time Akiva has developed a wide-spanning book of business and a network of both stores and private clientele that he maintains and cherishes.
