As a concierge jeweler in Los Angeles, Gillian Goldman built Significant Stones around a deeply personal promise of helping clients find or create pieces that are as unique as they are. That means going beyond off-the-shelf inventory to source specific diamonds, compare stones across cuts and qualities, and assemble custom pieces that match each client’s vision.
Before joining Rapaport Trade, accessing a broad range of diamond options and staying current on pricing was time-consuming and fragmented. It often required weeks of searching and expensive travel.
When Gillian joined Rapaport Trade, the impact was immediate. The platform put hundreds of suppliers directly at her fingertips, giving her access to the breadth of inventory she needed to present clients with meaningful choices. For custom commissions, she could now search the global marketplace to find exact stones rather than relying on a handful of known suppliers. Beyond sourcing, Rapaport Trade became a real-time window into the diamond market, including how tariffs were affecting valuations, giving her the knowledge to advise clients accurately and price competitively using the price list.
Since joining, Significant Stones has elevated the service it delivers to every client, backed by incredible improvements in efficiency and cost savings. Instead of spending weeks navigating middlemen and coordinating travel, Gillian now leverages direct access to global inventory right from her desk. This streamlined approach not only protects her margins but also empowers her to guide clients with real-time diamond pricing confidence, resulting in a vastly superior concierge experience.
Rapaport Trade allows Gillian to offer massive inventory without holding the stones herself. Instantly presenting clients with curated gems and transparent pricing builds immediate trust. Ultimately, the time saved on sourcing means she can focus entirely on designing the perfect custom piece.
No commitment. For members of the trade only.
