Diamonds by Rothschild
Generational Diamond Heritage
Fast forward to 2001, after graduating from Tulane University, Henry Rothschild, Efraim’s son, joined his father in business and immersed himself fully into the trade.
In 2005, with the industry in a state of uncertainty, and independent jewelers feeling the pain of rapid consolidation and the effects of the internet, Henry established the Retail Jeweler’s Cooperative (RJECO, Inc.). RJECO’s mission was to support independent jewelers by strengthening their diamond buying capabilities.
Sustainable Sourcing
We firmly believe in the moral, ethical, and environmental benefits of sustainably sourced diamonds.
To us, there is simply no better way to create a sustainable, intelligent ecosystem of supply within the jewelry industry.
Our hard-earned network of suppliers includes second-hand dealers, antique stores, estate, and private sellers. Recut diamonds are handled domestically, as is certification.
Keeping a minimal carbon footprint is part of our mission of sustainability and our diamonds receive no large-scale industrial manufacturing.
when there are so many exceptional quality diamonds already in circulation.
Why dig for "New Diamonds"?
Really, Why? We pride ourselves on our Clean Cut concept in diamond trading. We only use "Post Consumer" Sourcing.
What we mean by that is, we take previously mined and distributed diamonds that we buy on the secondary market- We "Re-Asses" and Re-Cut or Clean Cut them to be better than they were before.
This process has no direct socio- political impact as modern earth mined diamonds and the carbon footprint is several thousand times less than earth mined or so called "lab grown" diamonds.
Clean Cut is the future of sustainable diamond jewelry and Diamonds By Rothschild wants to be the leader of jewelry stores in Pittsburgh that offers a sustainable product to consumers.
