our story
For over a century, our mission has been to make people feel loved. Since the first Helzberg Diamonds opened over a century ago, we’ve grown into a family of over 200 jewelry stores across the nation. With more than 100 years of diamond expertise, we’ve created a legacy built on trust, knowledge and high quality diamonds at an incredible price.

When Barnett Helzberg Jr. proposes to Shirley Bush, the love he feels sparks a thought: Everyone should feel like this. Everyone should feel loved.

People all over the U.S. and around the world start sharing their love with the famous pins. They’re still available today: We’d love to give you one (for free!) at your local Helzberg store.
