About CrownStone

The Story Behind the Stones...

Five decades of excellence.
A legacy of trust.
A world of rare beauty.

Every exceptional diamond begins with its origin. Our diamonds are sourced from established mining regions in Botswana, Canada, Namibia, and South Africa — regions renowned for producing diamonds of exceptional character and quality.

Following recovery from the earth, each diamond enters a carefully regulated journey. Diamonds from Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa are transported to established sorting centers within their respective countries. Diamonds originating in Canada are transported to Botswana, where they undergo sorting and preparation.

From their journey beneath the earth to their transformation into a remarkable jewel, every stone carries a story of rarity, craftsmanship, and enduring beauty.

For five decades, CrownStone Diamonds Trading Company has been dedicated to the world of exceptional diamonds, precious gemstones, and fine pearl jewellery. Our heritage began in Geneva, Switzerland, where the company was formerly known as Bankers Jewelries, establishing a tradition founded upon discerning taste, uncompromising quality, and trusted personal relationships.

Today, CrownStone Diamonds continues that legacy on an international scale, working with some of the world's most respected partners within the diamond and jewellery industry. Through these longstanding relationships, we source and deliver exceptional diamonds, gemstones, and fine jewelry to a distinguished clientele spanning the globe.

At CrownStone Diamonds, we believe that true luxury extends beyond the brilliance of a gemstone. It is reflected in provenance, integrity, expertise, discretion, and personal service.

For fifty years, our name has been associated with carefully selected stones, trusted international relationships, and an unwavering appreciation for the extraordinary.
