Laurence Graff

Laurence Graff's life in the diamond industry began as an apprentice in 1953.

He spent many years nurturing and building his own business – designing, manufacturing and selling exquisite designs around the world through his international network of dealers.

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.

Laurence has an inherent feeling for diamonds that goes beyond the stones themselves.
