Graff, A True Rags to Riches Story

Great Diamonds have a name, Graff

Image Courtesy Of Graff

The story of the man behind Graff, world-famous jewelry house that owns the legendary Wittelsback-Graff Diamond, is a true rags to riches story. If you were to catch a glimpse of the 14-year-old dropout living on London's East End in 1952, you would be hard pressed to connect that image to the billionaire that Laurence Graff is today, but that humble beginning is part of what molded the man behind the jewels.

Graff's Story

In 1952, 14-year-old Laurence Graff was doing so poorly in school that his parents urged him to quit, pushing him to get a job and make something of himself rather than wasting his time in school where he obviously was not going to excel. That proved to be a good decision, because Graff's first job was an apprenticeship with a London jeweler in Hatton Garden. While that job lasted only three months and included duties like cleaning restrooms and floors, it sparked an interest in Graff to pursue jewelry making.

His second job was also in the jewelry industry, and in it he learned how to make small pieces of jewelry and repair rings. However, his employer was not a good business man, and the business folded. At 18 years of age, Graff took on a third apprenticeship, again in the jewelry business. When his third employer was deep into debt, Graff actually stepped in and took over the business. In 1960, Graff founded Graff Diamonds, Ltd. After digging himself out of debt, he managed to open two jewelry stores in London. However, while his jewels were quality, his designs were poor, and savvy Londoners did not want to buy them, so he packed up his goods and headed to Singapore.

In Singapore, Graff began to see success. He traveled throughout the Middle East, selling jewels out of a black briefcase. With time, he learned more about the industry and picked up some extremely valuable gems. While he was selling a tremendous volume of diamonds, he also made contact with the Prince of Brunei, an avid jewelry collector. The prince became a lifelong client, and this contact brought Graff many other prestigious clients, and also taught him how to choose valuable diamonds to showcase.

In 1974 the Graff company closed the two small London shops and opened a larger one near Harrods. In the 1990s he relocated again, moving to New Bond Street and buying valuable London real estate. He also began expanding outside of London. In 2001 he took his jewelry to America, opening stores in New York, Chicago, Palm Beach and Las Vegas.

The Gaff Difference

Today, Gaff continues to comb the globe collecting the very best rare and valuable gemstones to turn into beautiful works of the finest jewelry art. Owning a Gaff gem is something the world's elites strive for.

What sets a Gaff gem apart from other gems on the market? The jewelry giant starts with the most brilliant raw gemstone, which are then carefully studied and cut to best showcase their intrinsic beauty.

Gaff has purchased some of the largest and finest jewels in the world, such as the Lesotho Promise, the 15th largest diamond ever discovered. This beauty was rated D, which is the top color rating for diamonds, and was studied by Gaff's expert jewelers for three months before any cuts were made. In the end, the gem produced 26 polished diamonds weighing a total of 223.35 carats, including four D flawless diamonds. The gems are currently set in the Lesotho Promise Necklace. The very best jewelers are currently working with The Letseng Legacy, the world's 18th largest diamond, which is still waiting to be cut.

All Graff diamonds are inscribed with the Graff logo and a Gemological Institute of America identification number. This inscription is so tiny that it does not hurt the clarity grade of the diamond, but it does provide proof to the owner and any who inherit the gem of its value and prestige.

Cartier Rules

type=text

The exquisite high end diamond and platinum dazzling creations instantly became a success and a number of royal courts took on Cartier as their official supplier. Edward VII as the Prince of Wales bestowed the title on Cartier of "King of jewellers, jeweller of kings." The handcrafted high end jewelry and watches of Cartier have been developed on the boutique situated at number 13 rue de la Paix, these days the renowned boutique is over a single hundred years of age.

The Garland type of Cartier:

Several makers of fine luxurious jewelry took on the lines of Artwork Nouveau. Nonetheless, Cartier turned for the neoclassical patterns of Versailles within the 18th century for their jewelry. The inspiration for the styles featured heavily on luxurious ornamental braiding with architectural motifs, which provided inspiration for gentle and which complemented the fire within the diamonds they employed.

The settings for the luxurious jewelry had been platinum pioneered by Cartier because of it currently being stronger and it becoming a natural magnet in attracting gentle. The Garland Type is perhaps a single with the most loved styles from Cartier, using the most spectacular of these currently being the diamond necklace that Cartier designed for La Belle Otero. This accurate masterpiece from Cartier was inspired by the tassels and bows of diamonds inside a necklace belonging to Marie-Antoinette. A single with the outstanding characteristics from the Garland type from Cartier may be the "mille grain," this may be the bead setting. The method entails craftsman making use of a modest tempered steel wheel, that is grooved, that is then pressed into the edge with the platinum. This creates the bead and this is what holds the fabulous stone. The Cartier setting is very mild and discrete and enhances the brilliance from the fabulous high end diamonds utilized.

Pioneers of Artwork Deco with modern styling:

The designers of Cartier high end jewelry have been, and still are given freedom to explore both geometrical and abstract forms, taking within the influences around them on the time and began introducing vivid colours. From easy cubes to strong lines, polygons and lozenges, Cartier was the correct pioneers of Artwork Deco well prior to its time.

Tutti Frutti - Cartier's magic of colours:

Together with the Tutti Frutti collection, Cartier took a single from the age-old traditions of India towards the next level. The luxurious collection saw the emergence of colourful styles based on engraved coloured gemstones combined with leaves and flowers. Sparkling rubies, emeralds and sapphires have been brought together to complement every other only inside a way that Cartier could. A single with the most well-known of all styles from Cartier within the course of this period was a bracelet commissioned for Mrs Cole Porter.

Leviev Diamonds

type=text

Leviev is considered at conservative estimates to be 1 of wealthiest males in the globe. His high end empire extends from Angolan Diamond Mines to iconic property around the globe.

The cornerstone of his enterprise has and has usually been the cutting, shaping and setting of high end Diamonds and he's 1st and foremost a Diamond Cutter by trade.

His stones have turn out to be legendary, not only for becoming the Hose that broke DeBeers grip on the international diamond trade, but also for their exquisite luxurious setting into items of jewelry which are the quite greatest in signature items for the rich and well-known.

Leviev learnt his trade in Israel following leaving the former Soviet Union. He joined a diamond cutting business and began a grueling apprenticeship inside the 'rabbinical' ranks and worked tirelessly to master all in the actions to grow to be a master craftsman and following a stint of military service was ready to start his own company.

To say his rise to prominence was stellar would be to do the man a serious injustice, a combination of adherence for the ancient top quality principals of high end diamond cutting and acute organization senses meant that Leviev became one of the most powerful diamond merchant in the entire world. His work is commissioned by Kings and Heads of State and his shops occupy probably the most exclusive luxurious locations of the globe. Leviev has also never ceased to expand his organization interests and has the objective of joining the ten richest guys in the globe. He's also a key philanthropist who gives enormous sums each and every year to quite a few charitable causes and emulates his enterprise role model Bill Gates brand of innovative philanthropy. He also performs the ancient and noble tradition with the Brit Milah for his workers and friends, emulating his father who performed the service towards the Jewish community Leviev grew up in despite such rituals becoming illegal and punishable by specific death.

Leviev is among the grandest of all of the luxurious diamond Marques on the earth and its items are the really finest in elegant and quality luxury diamond jewelry.
