Episode 181: Guest Jade Trau

Victoria Gomelsky and Rob Bates talk to Jade Trau, founder of her eponymous brand. She shares her experience growing up as a fifth-generation diamantaire who traveled the world sourcing diamonds for her grandfather’s business, and how her perspective shifted after the birth of her twins. She explains how she formed her own point of view in jewelry design and the moment in her career when she actually started to see herself as a designer. Get her reaction to gold prices, lab-grown diamonds, and stick around to the end to see her beautiful heirloom piece made with a fancy gray diamond and hear the story behind it.
