What began as Ginsberg's Jewelry & Loan blossomed into one of Iowa's finest jewelers under the guidance of Izzy & Rose's three sons, Herman, Louis and Stanley. As Herman once said, after his graduation ceremony from the University of Iowa on a rainy Saturday morning in 1948, the family drove the 30 miles back to Cedar Rapids and returned to the store that afternoon He has never left. Herman & his brothers did much to build upon their father's ambitions. They started a wholesale line, furthered their own professional knowledge, and gradually reduced the pawn shop atmosphere to strictly fine jewelry.

Today, Herman's son Steven holds the Graduate Gemologist (GG) diploma from the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) in New York City. While living there during the 1980s, Steve spent four years grading diamonds for the GIA's Gem Trade Laboratory, Inc. It was there that Steve analyzed some of the world's top-quality diamonds and gems, and worked with some of the most influential and reputable people in the diamond and jewelry industry. Steve puts his skills in gemology, diamond grading and gem identification to work, using Ginsberg Jewelers state-of-the-art gemological laboratory equipment.

Herman's experience and Steve's credentials and expertise make Ginsberg Jewelers a fourth generation premiere source of better jewelry and collectibles. Categories:   Clocks and Watches | Jewelry
