A house built on provenance.

Founded in 1998, JNJ Precious Stones has grown from a single office in Mumbai to a four-continent trading house serving collectors, jewellers, and institutions.

The Story

From Mumbai's Zaveri Bazaar to the world's vaults.

JNJ was founded by three generations of gemstone traders who believed the industry needed a house that stood for three things above all — verified provenance, honest grading, and long relationships.

We started with Burmese rubies and Ceylonese sapphires. Today, our inventory spans the full spectrum of investment-grade coloured stones and diamonds — but our principle is unchanged. Every stone has a story we can tell, a certificate we can show, and a price we can defend.

Our clients return not because we sell them stones, but because we help them build collections. That difference is the business.

Our Principles

What guides every transaction.

Provenance First

Every stone traces to a documented source. We do not trade material without a verifiable chain of custody.

Independent Grading

We submit to the laboratories, not the other way around. GIA, Gübelin, SSEF, AGL, GRS — our clients choose.

Fair Pricing

Our valuations reference live auction comparables. You see the data; the price is defended, not argued.

Discretion

Private clients remain private. We do not publish names, holdings, or transaction values — ever.

Ethical Sourcing

Kimberley Process compliant. Direct mine-to-market relationships. We decline material that cannot be traced.

Long Horizons

A gemstone outlasts its owner. We advise for the generation ahead, not the quarter ahead.

By the Numbers

Three decades. Measured, not claimed.

How We Work

A deliberate process, from brief to delivery.

Brief

We meet — in person, in Geneva or Dubai, or by secure video. You tell us what you want: size, hue, origin, budget, intent.

Source

We present three to seven candidates from inventory or trusted partners, with full documentation and comparables.

Certify

The stone is submitted — or re-submitted — to the laboratory of your choice. We manage the entire pathway.

Deliver

Fully insured bonded transit, white-glove handling, and a complete archive of provenance for your records.

Work with us.

Whether you are placing a single significant stone or building a long-term collection, the conversation starts the same way.
