German-based, Gerhard Schreiner’s fascination with precious stones motivated him to immerse himself in the world of jewels. His endeavours led him to Colombia in 1988, where the success story of Gerhard Schreiner began. Today, 300 employees are working in Schreiner’s enterprise, which has its headquarters in Germany. Gerhard is one of the most trusted names when it comes to crafting the highest standards of jewellry that have been graciously adorned by noble residences throughout the world!
Presenting one of the most unique “Made in German” craftsmanship
In the Glasklar (Crystal Clear) collection, the diamond appears floating inside the glass ball, which has been shaped by hand with great sensitivity to enclose the diamond perfectly, and that’s not all….the glass acts like a magnifying glass and makes the diamond look three times bigger than it actually is! For example, if the diamond inside the glass is 0.20 cts; it looks approximately 1cts.
What an innovative way to showcase diamonds! Don’t you agree?
