Majestic Gems International started in 2000, with a enthusiastic young
entrepreneur, Valeri Van Balen. After gaining all the training she would need as an apprentice to a Marine Biologist PHD, she followed her dream and become
a pearl merchant. Valerie Van Balen traveled to Polynesia for her first
time in 1999 on invitation, from a large family of Tahiti. She found a paradise
like she had never known before. And we are talking about a 19 year old girl who
living on Kauai, Hawaii.
Valerie's first experience of the
pearl farms made a strong impression. Her first intention was
to own a pearl farm, and be close to where all the majic happens.
Valerie has since discovered her true talent is in the creation
of exquisite black pearl jewelry. The last four years have shown
the quality of her designs.
Valerie sources the rarest naturally colored pearls
you can find, and then offers an excellent price.
Her connections are with the very people who work hard as it takes
to farm these beautiful cultured pearls. Now Majestic Gems has
grown to international fame.
Valerie has graced the necks of celebrity and elite, as well as
offering the Tahitian and South sea pearl to be affordable to
everyone. The latest addition highlights the rarest pearl in the
world, the Indonesian golden pearls. Valerie Van Balen has a saying,
"Business is only good when everybody wins." She invites
you to enjoy winning.
