Meet Bruce Chase

With Bruce’s invaluable gemological expertise – along with what he has learned by buying, selling, and appraising jewelry – he has developed a unique set of skills that he uses to guarantee his clients with the best customer experience and the highest quality product.

Bruce Chase first learned about diamonds from his father, a diamond dealer who worked with local boutiques all over the Midwest. After learning the ropes of the workshop and the sales floor in Kansas City, Bruce moved to Santa Monica to study at the Gemological Institute of America and earn his Graduate Gemologist degree.

By studying at the GIA, Bruce learned to think of diamonds and gemstones in a way he hadn’t before in traditional sales. He began to see that an inclusion in a diamond or gold strands of rutile in an amethyst were not “undesirable”, but unique features formed by nature, like snowflakes or thumbprints.

Our Story

After earning his Graduate Gemology degree, Bruce returned to Kansas City and started his own appraisal business. One of his repeat clients was a small chain of estate jewelry boutiques. Bruce couldn’t help but notice the craftsmanship in vintage and antique pieces, all done by hand with the finest materials.

Since then, along with maintaining his jewelry appraisal business, Bruce has worked all over the United States in well-known jewelry stores, from Moyer in Indianapolis to Smyth in Baltimore to Hyde Park in Denver, often as a diamond and bridal buyer as well as an appraiser.

Bruce founded Diamond Source Jewelers to better facilitate a hands-on, custom jewelry making experience for both himself and his clients. With his expertise and over 40 years of jewelry industry experience, Bruce is an ideal guide when designing a custom piece. As a Graduate Gemologist, he can answer all of your questions about gemstones, from how to recognize a diamond’s color and clarity to the importance of heat-treatment in a royal blue sapphire. Bruce brings industry terms to life so that you are comfortable in making your decision.
