Padis diamonds hold a promise of forever

Padis Jewelry understands how confusing it can be to shop for a diamond engagement ring; with so many options, how do you pick the right diamond for that special moment?
The San Francisco-based jewelry company has been trusted to help clients make this difficult decision for more than forty years. Padis Jewelry has the largest inventory of loose diamonds, fine jewelry, and engagement rings in the entire state of California – all on display in their four showrooms. You won’t find any “virtual inventory” here. Padis Jewelry knows that seeing is believing. This is especially true when trying to select the center gemstone in a ring that you or your loved one will wear forever! In addition to carrying the most respected laboratory grading reports in the industry, Padis Jewelry is also proud to partner with Forevermark. A Forevermark diamond is distinctive for many reasons, not least of which is its unalterable inscription, located inside the heart of diamond itself – a true mark of integrity. These diamonds come with a promise: every single diamond is responsibly sourced, as well as beautiful and rare.

High standards for mining sources
Less than 1% of the world’s diamonds have the qualities to become a Forevermark diamond. Diamonds are a natural product of our planet, and it all starts with the mine of origin. To uncover these precious diamonds, Forevermark, as part of The De Beers Group of Companies, carefully selects mines based on strict business, social and environmental standards. Forevermark currently sources diamonds from mines including Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, and Canada. While most “conflict-free” diamond sources can cite Kimberley Process membership (an international trade standard to prevent “conflict diamonds” from entering the market), Forevermark goes beyond the Kimberley Process by supporting the advancement of communities and protecting the natural world, the ultimate source of diamonds.
Forevermark demonstrates values that transcend the finished product and its mining, making lasting contributions to mining communities through educational, medical and social initiatives and through actions taken to redress the environmental impact of mining. There are also dedicated programs for career development for women and education of children. Forevermark’s passion for diamonds is matched by their deep sense of connection to the natural world, which they are dedicated to protecting for future generations. Forevermark is committed to the preservation and protection of habitats, their species, and the wider natural world.

In short, a Forevermark diamond is a diamond you can feel good about, from mine to market.

Into skilled hands

Not every diamond meets the strict quality standards to become a Forevermark diamond, and not every jeweler can sell Forevermark goods. Padis Jewelry is an entrusted Forevermark partner, and has been since the brand was launched in the United States.

Padis Jewelry has an extensive selection of loose Forevermark diamonds for that engagement ring, of course, but also has Forevermark diamond stud earrings, and other fine gift jewelry. When you visit, you’ll also see a collection of jewelry and timepieces from other luxury brands such as Tacori, Mémoire, A. JAFFE, Verragio, Henri Daussi, Michael M., Simon G., Scott Kay, Breitling, TAG Heuer, and Michele, among others.

Browse Padis Jewelry’s collections at one of their three San Francisco locations: The Jewelry Center at 101 Utah; The Padis Designer Galleria at 888 Brannan, Suite 128; and The Gift Center in nearby Suite 165. North Bay visitors can shop at Padis Jewelry’s St. Helena location, located at 1269 Main Street.
