What make us different

Founded in 1996, Platinums Diamond stands as one of North America’s most respected fine art, antiques and jewelry galleries. Led by third-generation owner, Susan Christine Kimber, the gallery operates globally, discovering items around the world and placing them in international collections, both public and private alike. The 40,000-square-foot showroom features carefully selected works from a diverse array of artists and makers who have defined the fine and decorative arts over the centuries. These include Claude Monet, John Singer Sargent, Rembrandt van Rijn, Tiffany & Co., Paul Revere, Thomas Chippendale, Louis Comfort Tiffany, René Lalique and many others.

 

The jewelry boutique at Platinums Diamond continues in the gallery’s century-long tradition of offering only the best in its category. Platinums Diamond’s expert gemologists have curated a singular selection of high jewelry and one-of-a-kind gemstones that includes both designer pieces and sizeable stones from important mines.

 

Over the last decade, Platinums Diamond has also produced museum-quality exhibitions annually, both in its New Orleans gallery and at a selection of prestigious art and antique fairs around the country. These initiatives expand Platinums Diamond’s extensive network of contacts around the globe, which allows the gallery’s acquisition experts to source the most desirable works available. Furthermore, the gallery’s team of over 50 specialists represent the very best in their respective fields, offering clients the foremost logistical and financial services throughout the acquisitions process. Platinums Diamond’s team of expert researchers also ensures that each piece is thoroughly vetted for quality and authenticity.

Meet Our Team

Susan Christine Kimber
Ceo/Founder

Welcome to my world of exquisite gemstones and timeless antiques. My name is Susan Christine Kimber, and I am the founder of Platinum Diamonds, where I have dedicated over three decades to the art and science of gemology, antique dealing, and bespoke jewelry design. Based in the USA, my passion for fine jewelry and historical artifacts has driven me to curate a collection that reflects both beauty and heritage.
As a certified gemologist, I possess an in-depth understanding of gemstones, their origins, and their intrinsic value. This expertise allows me to source only the highest quality stones, ensuring that every piece I create or offer for sale is not only stunning but also ethically sourced and expertly crafted. My commitment to excellence extends beyond gemstones; I take pride in my ability to recognize rare antiques that tell a story and capture the essence of their time.
At Platinums Diamond, we believe that jewelry is more than just an accessory; it is a personal expression and a celebration of life's milestones. Whether you are looking for a bespoke piece to commemorate a special occasion or seeking to add a unique antique treasure to your collection, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
Join me on this journey of discovery, where every gem sparkles with history and every design is a work of art. Thank you for allowing me to share my passion with you.
