Gili Jewels is a fourth-generation, family-owned jewelry house with roots stretching back nearly a century. What began as a flourishing turquoise trade evolved into a broader expertise in fine gemstones—rubies, sapphires, emeralds, and diamonds—before ultimately finding its enduring legacy in pearls.
Our journey into pearls began in the early 80s, when a trusted colleague invited us to represent his collection. Demand surged almost immediately. When he eventually stepped away from importing, we took sourcing into our own hands—traveling directly to Japan to select cultured pearls of exceptional luster and quality. Within a short time, pearls became the heart of our business.
As we expanded, our buyers developed long-standing relationships with the world’s premier pearl regions—Japan, China, Tahiti, Australia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Every pearl is acquired at origin and brought to our offices, where each stone and strand is meticulously sorted, cleaned, matched, and strung to precise standards.
In the early 2010s, we built upon our heritage with a dedicated diamond jewelry line. Today it includes tennis bracelets and necklaces, classic studs and hoops, pendants, and bridal pieces crafted in 14K and 18K gold.
Controlling our supply chain—from global sourcing to production—allows us to maintain consistent craftsmanship, ensure responsible and ethical practices, and offer exceptional, transparent value. This disciplined approach ensures every Gili Jewels piece reflects the integrity and quality our family has upheld for generations.
Our pearl assortment now spans Japanese Akoya, Chinese freshwater, and South Sea pearls in a full range of natural shapes, sizes, and hues. Paired with our expanding selection of diamonds and colored gemstones, Gili Jewels remains a trusted global partner in fine jewelry.
For four generations, our mission has stayed constant: to bring the world’s most exquisite pearls and gemstones to our customers while upholding a standard of excellence that endures.
