As annual exhibitors at the largest jewelry trade show in the USA ,and at the largest  gem show in the world, we reveled in offering inspiration to cutting-edge creatives. Our jewelry customers have included esteemed award winners, revered industry leaders, and dazzling local artisans.
 
Our customers have sent us around the world, getting our hands dirty as we scoured the globe for glistening rocks in far-flung locales. Our primary target: rough stones ready to be transformed into delightful gems for our enthusiastic customers.

Our Domain Portfolio

 

We view our portfolio of domain names like the precious metal-coated gems we helped pioneer years ago: a combination of gems, jewelry, and modern technology.

The largest individual collection of high-caliber gem and jewelry domain names available, our portfolio is a gallery of premium domain names, including such destinations as PinkDiamonds.com, DiamondJewellery.com, PearlRing.com, and Tourmalines.com.

​

We sought out and acquired these domain names in the same spirit with which we went about our gemstone curation. While traveling the globe searching for nature’s most unique stones, we simultaneously scoured the web for the finest online identities we could acquire.

​

Mining for Domain Names is Part of our History

When we first started registering domains, the year was 1998. Bill Clinton was the American President, and dial-up internet was cutting edge. A single web page could take minutes to load. Very few gem and jewelry businesses had computers. As a result, almost none had email addresses, and even fewer had websites.

 

To put the era in context, during the same year that many of our domain names were registered, a couple of guys in California were founding a website of their own: Google.

 

An Investment in the Future

One afternoon, while listening to a radio broadcast about an exciting new technology called the “world wide web,” Abigail was inspired to register domain names, tapping into Maxam’s wide-ranging gem knowledge for insights about which jewelry industry names to obtain.

 

After curating a robust catalogue of domain names, our focus returned to our wholesale gemstone business, which took off in short order. We used a few of the domains for our own gem websites. That online identity--and the email addresses associated with it--proved to be a powerful psychological force, even attracting the business of one the largest gold jewelry companies in America.

Why We’re Selling

A few years ago, we sold the “brick and mortar” part of our gem business. Now, it’s time to move on from our digital home as well. For the first time ever, the full breadth of our prized collection is available to others.
