Its venture into watches has been blended with the same passion and expertise that goes into the manufacturing of their diamonds. These exquisite timepieces will make any bride desire them.
Graff diamonds
The House of Graff that has become synonymous with the most brilliant and fabulous jewels was founded in the 1960s by Laurence Graff. Based in London, United Kingdom, the jeweler has worldwide operations ranging from cutting the gemstones to the manufacture and retailing of the finest jewelry across the 26 boutiques.
Inspiration
Belief is that the House of Graff has handled more diamonds than any other house in the world. And that kind of expertise comes from an undying passion and great inspiration. According to Lawrence Graff, the diamonds excite him and bring life in him. That in turn seems to lend life to the diamonds too! Specializing only in stones of exceptional and the finest quality, the House draws inspiration from the stones themselves! Perfection seems to inspire further perfection.
