As an artist in his early life, Jack Weir enjoyed geometric forms and sharp, flat color, intuitively exploring the diamond shape. When a jeweler friend saw one of his abstract paintings, she suggested he’d thrive in the diamond business. Jack went on to study diamonds, setting up Jack Weir Inc. Diamond Importers in 1981, traveling internationally buying and selling diamonds. And a spontaneous trip to Brazil truly inspired him.

"I saw these big light yellow diamonds, three, four, twenty carats – some of the most beautiful stones I'd ever seen.”

These finds proved hugely popular in the US, so Jack found himself frequently visiting Brazil. He made sure his children experienced one of his business trips as soon as they turned 17 – including his son, Wyler.

30 years after that first trip to Brazil, Jack and Wyler reimagined the business for a new generation of discerning customer. Renamed Jack Weir & Sons in 2012, their vision was built on a shared passion for building relationships, creativity and, of course, beautiful vintage jewelry pieces.

Wyler is now CEO, with Jack leading the board and managing his favorite international clients overseas. They are supported by a team of equally passionate and talented Gemological Institute of America-trained staff, who find immense pleasure in connecting each and every stunning piece of jewelry with its rightful owner.

Wyler continues to scour the globe with his dad for hidden treasures, expertly curating a diverse and distinctive vintage jewelry collection that brings infinite joy to discerning customers.
