La Bijouterie

Rings

La Bijouterie stands out as the most ethical jewelry shop around, working strictly with ethically sourced GIA certified diamonds and providing a GIA certificate and appraisal with every jewel. Every piece is designed and made by the business’s California family jewelers, who have been in the business of jewelry for three generations. The shop designs made-to-order jewelry, with the options to customize your own design completely. The process is extensive, turing customers’ ideas and sketches into a 3-D model, and then a life-size wax model, before finalizing the design. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, making a point to educate its customers about their company, its resources, and diamonds in general.
