QUESTION: What makes Paul Brian Fine Jewelry different from other colored stone jewelry?

ANSWER:

What makes Paul Brian special is the quality of our gemstones and the weight of the gold in each piece. Each gemstone is scrutinized for its individual brilliance, vivid saturation and perfect matching in sets. Natural gemstones as striking as these are a rare find, even in fine jewelry retail stores. You should be able to see into a Sapphire, Ruby or Emerald and notice an even tone in color. The gemstone should not be cloudy or dark. There should be minimal noticeable inclusions as well.

Our settings are not mass-produced “blanks” from Hong Kong or Bangkok that give the appearance of a fine piece but is hollowed in areas to make the piece light. Each piece is individually hand crafted and you can feel the value in the weight of the gold.

Our value is providing a well crafted piece of jewelry, not just the appearance of one.
