Michael Abushakra is the son of a 1st generation immigrant from Jerusalem. His journey with jewelry began in the retail section of the business offering pre-made pieces to customers at his father's store. After working in the industry for some time, Michael had the vision to do more. He realized in order to continue in the business he would need additional, specialized training to become more than just a sales associate.
Michael went to the Gemological Institute of America, where he received their highest level of jeweler certification. During his time at GIA, he discovered his passion for the jewelry arts. Michael loves the artistic expression found in metalwork because it gives him the opportunity to create artistically, one of a kind pieces.

What you may not realize is that there is no governing agency to control who can and cannot be a jewelry appraiser. As such, there is no need for credentials of certifications of any kind. Considering this, you can imagine that many people in the industry write appraisals who do not know the correct process for evaluation or have the expertise to properly evaluate jewelry.
Our Four C's of Diamonds guide can help you decide on the most important factors when shopping for a diamond. The word carat derives from the word carob, a Mediterranean seed, which has an extremely consistent weight for measuring. The greater the carat weight, the rarer, and more valuable the diamond becomes.

Daniel did an excellent job of repairing my mother’s ring - tips, prongs, replaced one stone. Looks as good as the day I received it 25 years ago! Definitely recommend Brynn Elizabeth Jewelers. We are lucky to have them in our beach community. Looking forward to having Daniel design a grandmother’s ring to compliment this one.
