The History
Five Decades in the Heart of New York
It started with a single showcase on West 47th Street. Leon Diamond opened in 1975 — a small family shop with big convictions: that every stone should be hand-selected, every piece crafted in-house, and every customer treated like family.
What began as one man's vision has grown across three generations. The same values that guided the founding of Leon Diamond guide every decision made today: uncompromising quality, deep expertise, and an honest relationship with every client who walks through our doors.
We've never outsourced our craftsmanship. Our bench jewelers, diamond setters, and gemologists work under one roof — the same roof where you'll come to choose your stone, discuss your vision, and pick up your finished piece.
The Diamond District has changed around us. Trends have come and gone. New shops have opened and closed. Leon Diamond has not changed — because our clients don't want us to. They come back for the same reason their parents did. Family. Trust. The craft.
