An exciting odyssey

A legacy since 1959 in diamond trading and fine jewellery creation,  spanning from South Africa to the Athens Riviera. At the age of 13 Chris Lyras began his journey of theoretical & practical gemmology. True to the values of its founder, the second generation continues to offer a notable contemporary luxury experience, combining direct sourcing of gems with in-house creative expression.

As direct importers we distribute at wholesale natural diamonds & coloured precious stones under the trade name GEO-GEM. If you’re looking for larger premium diamonds, coloured diamonds or gemstones we guarantee excellent quality & value, while our in-house gemologist of the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) will work closely with you to find the appropriate solution for you. You may participate in the design process of your jewellery as we create your jewel from design to completion.

Under the trade name CREATED DIAMONDS & GEMS we import & distribute at wholesale certified lab grown diamonds, moissanite & coloured gems since 1999. Offering the possibility of superb quality, lab grown gems offer a unique alternative value proposition to jewellery featuring larger sized natural gemstones.
