Laurence Graff

Laurence Graff’s life in the diamond industry began as an apprentice at an early age in the Hatton Garden district of London.

He spent many years nurturing and building his own business designing, manufacturing and selling exquisite designs.

In 1972, the first Graff retail shop opened its doors in Knightsbridge, London.

His first major public recognition came in 1973 when he became the first jeweller to be presented with the Queens Award to Industry, an honour renewed in 1977, 1994 and 2006.

Now a global empire, Graff Diamonds operates more than 30 stores internationally and is known for the most fabulous jewels in the world, sought after by a discerning and loyal clientele.
