Kimberlight Brands specializes in rare, collectable gems. Co-owners Heather Kirk and Laura Serena have been friends and business partners for more than a decade. Their shared motivation in launching Kimberlight and introducing their foray brand -- the Las Vegas Cut -- is to:

+ source and offer the world's most exquisitely crafted diamonds
+ to elevate awareness of the importance of cut in the 4 C's of diamond valuation
+ to demystify the diamond shopping experience by openly sharing information about what makes diamonds so special and prized.

The introduction of Kimberlight's Las Vegas Cut diamond -- a proprietary new diamond design which features a staggering 111 facets playing with light as well as the world’s best performing stones -- is thanks to a dynamic and important team of suppliers, advisors and alliances.

Suppliers

+ Master diamond cutter and educator Mike Botha whose design was chosen to become the Las Vegas Cut.

+ AGS Laboratories, one of world’s most stringent diamond grading labs, grades each stone and has provided insight into the optimal cutting and polishing procedures to maximize light performance.
