Downtown Chicago Convenience and Value for Hearts and Arrows Diamond Enthusiasts

For those seeking exceptional quality in fine jewelry, especially diamonds that exhibit maximized brilliance, M. Martin & Co. Jewelers stands out as a destination that combines expert knowledge with wholesale value. Located conveniently in The Loop at 5 S. Wabash Ave., we’ve built a reputation for providing carefully selected stones, including those displaying the highly sought-after “hearts and arrows” faceting pattern.

Since shopping for a diamond can feel overwhelming, we simplify the process by ensuring clients meet only with a Graduate Gemologist (GIA) or designer. Our Owner, Stan Perkins, who holds GIA diplomas in Diamond Grading and Colored Stone Grading and Identification, personally selects every diamond sold. Stan ensures that our diamonds possess the finest cut and polish to achieve maximum beauty and brilliance. Because most diamonds on the market today are not cut properly, we inspect many stones before selecting only a small percentage that meets our high standards. The result of this stringent selection process is a focus on superior cut quality.

Chicago-based buyers consistently praise M. Martin & Co. for this commitment to quality and education. Reviewers appreciate that our team is eager to educate them on how to use the diamond buying system to their advantage, ensuring they make an informed decision. For example, Todd H. notes that Stan did a great job explaining the importance of the skill set of diamond cutters and how light should travel through the diamond. This focus on light performance led Todd’s fiancé to rave that she “absolutely LOVES her diamond engagement ring,” and her friends continually ask to look at it, marveling at the amazing sparkle factor in all types of lights.

Other customers in Chicago echo the enthusiasm of receiving a brilliant and beautiful product. Emily M. shares that the compliments haven’t stopped, and admits that she is “literally obsessed with the elegance and beauty of the ring”. And many Chicago clients note that they were referred by friends or family, sometimes even carrying on a generational tradition. Stan is proud to be serving fourth-generation customers, demonstrating the long-term trust built within the community.

Our shopping environment is designed to be relaxing and professional. Operating as a low-overhead “upstairs” store, we bring wholesale prices to the public for quality jewelry. We specialize in custom design and can reproduce items from a sketch or picture. And our store operates by appointment only, which contributes to the intimate and personalized experience noted by other patrons like Megan C.
