Thanks for stopping in, we are pleased to meet you!

   

Here at CBQ, we specialize in the unique and obscure.  While we also carry a healthy selection of traditional material and cuts, it is our focus to bring forth and showcasing the most interesting diamonds, sapphires, tanzanites, and other gemstones the earth has produced for us.

    This begins with our curated network of artisanal, family-owned mines with whom we have established relationships all over the world.

    Our process is also a little different, as we focus on giving back to these miners and their small, hard-working communities. When you purchase from us, we show our gratitude by paying it forward to the people that have unearthed these materials for us. Our mission is to provide to these communities by helping them enhance their education, food, healthcare, and to form ethical and humane mining practices.  This is foundational in our business model.

    Another area of great pride is our transparency and mindfulness in all aspects of our practices. From the unearthing of your stones to the incredible day they come into your possession, you can rest assured that your stone was sourced, cut, and priced ethically.

Thank you for gifting us with your business.
