Established in December 2005 by founder Diane Garmendia, this business is the only woman-owned and operated brick-and-mortar fine jewelry store in Santa Barbara. Garmendia’s passion for gemstones began in New Jersey, where her grandfather owned a fine jewelry store and introduced her to diamonds at age seven. After his store closed, she moved to California to work in the industry and learn from trade masters before opening her own storefront. The shop offers a unique selection of handmade fine jewelry and an estate collection that spans from the Victorian era through the Edwardian, Deco, and Nouveau periods, up to the 1950s. The store represents various jewelry designers who utilize diamonds and precious stones in contemporary designs. For men, the inventory includes wedding bands, cufflinks, money clips, and pens. The shop also carries a variety of stud earrings, such as diamond, sapphire, turquoise, and various themed designs including scorpion, dragonfly, and dolphin styles.

The business operates as a full-service jeweler with a workshop located upstairs featuring a Master Jeweler. Services provided include jewelry cleaning, repairs, appraisals, custom designs, ring re-sizing, stone replacement, and re-purposing. They also offer fine watch services and pearl and bead re-stringing, as well as jewelry purchasing. Customers can make appointments for bespoke and bridal projects by calling or texting the store. The store is currently celebrating 20 years in business.
