Three Generations of Integrity and StyleMy grandfather established the business in 1910 after he studied the art of diamond cutting in Antwerp, Belgium, the center of the diamond trade. Maurice Goldman traveled to Scandinavia where he sold diamonds to discerning customers. After the first World War, he established his business in Belgium and Holland and built a respected and profitable enterprise selling diamonds, emeralds, rubies, and sapphires throughout Norway, Denmark and Sweden. He was a member of the Diamond Dealers Club in London, Antwerp, and New York.The present day Maurice Goldman and Sons, Inc., was established in 1943 when Maurice and Paula Goldman arrived in New York with their sons, Isidore and Hector. Since the launch of the business in the diamond district of Manhattan's 47th St., the company has grown substantially, as did its reputation as dealers of quality diamonds, pearls, precious stones, and estate jewelry. Hector Goldman, the current president of Maurice Goldman and Sons, Inc., is a respected member of the New York Diamond Dealers Club since 1948, and The Jewelers Board of Trade. Under his direction, the company began importing pearls in 1950. Avant-garde in his approach to business and advertising, he commissioned this ad in the early 1950s. The only age-revealing tell-tale sign is the cigarette held by the model (and the telephone number). Before you ask, no, this is not my Dad.
 As children, we watched as my father's buying and selling trips took him to distant points around the world. With the advent of virtual communication, and the ability to transact business through a single click, our opportunity and mandate is to source new markets and reach customers that might not have had access to the quality and variety of our product lines.
