Founding Beginnings
Leib Simpson, a Brooklyn student, nurtured a passion for rare gemstones through apprenticeships with a local jeweler and a Japanese pearl trader, absorbing every facet of their work. Newly married to Chana Simpson, they opened a 350-square-foot storefront on 13th Ave. Their integrity, honesty, and resourcefulness quickly attracted a loyal clientele. Leib's meticulous words, akin to the rare gems he curated, solidified his reputation as a trusted source for high jewelry and luxury watches.
