Our Story

How We Started

Chad grew up immersed in his father’s store, where he learned the ins and outs of furniture repair, buying, selling, and even furniture moving. From a young age, his fascination with gold and diamonds was evident, as he spent countless hours with his grandfather, studying and absorbing knowledge about these precious stones. Ruby, on the other hand, had her own exposure to the world of antiques and jewelry, accompanying her family to various trade shows and visiting her uncle’s store. Both Chad and Ruby’s lives revolved around this enchanting realm.

As they ventured through their individual paths of self-discovery, Chad opened a small store where he engaged in buying and selling, while Ruby took on roles as a sales manager for multiple companies and pursued marketing as a side hustle. Their unique journeys eventually led them to cross paths, and their shared passion for jewelry and antiques ignited a deep connection. Together, they embarked on a remarkable journey, creating their first business, which they successfully sold in order to fulfill their ultimate dream of owning a jewelry store.

Ruby possesses a remarkable personality, exuding charisma and attentiveness to details, making her a top-producing salesperson and an exceptional office manager. Her true passion lies in the creative aspects of marketing, photography, and providing outstanding customer service. Her thirst for knowledge led her to pursue self-education and attend GIA school, where she became a graduated gemologist, making significant strides within the diamond industry. Chad, serving as her apprentice, complements her skills with his charm, keen attention to detail, and adept negotiation abilities. Together, they form an unstoppable duo, each enhancing the other’s strengths and compensating for their weaknesses. Chad values integrity and has a deep understanding of fair market value, ensuring that every transaction leaves you satisfied.

Their shared love and dedication culminated in a happy marriage and a blended family. If you want to follow their extraordinary journey, we invite you to subscribe to our blogs and join us on this exciting adventure.
