About Chida Gems
About Us
Welcome to Chida! The roots of Chida Gems started in 2018 when our cofounder Eric DaBreo’s passion for jewelry making and design were swept forward on the beaches of Bali.
Eric met one of our lead jewelers on the beach who were both splitting time between hand crafting jewelry and surfing. They taught each other new ideas and design techniques and maintained a strong friendship for years to come.
Fast forward, and after many tenured years in the contemporary Scandinavian furniture industry Cody Cinelli joined Eric’s passion for quality design with a unique and modern take on jewelry, art and design. Thus, the partnership was formed.
We believe in unique designs that incorporate natural themes from coastal landscapes, lush jungle, arid deserts, all with a heavy focus on the importance of an urban community that embraces art and creativity. We want our art to be used, appreciated and shared with the world.
We stand by the quality of our jewelry and choose not to cut corners when it comes to our product. We always choose the highest quality metals and stones when manufacturing our jewelry, using solid .925 sterling silver and 18k yellow gold. We hand select each stone, focusing on rare gemstones that are one of a kind. Silver, gold and most of these gemstones value will appreciate over time. We pride ourselves on providing a quality product that is truly unique and no small detail is overlooked, designing our pieces with a function first mentality. Every detail is intended for you to enjoy your jewelry wearing experience and make sure that precious piece doesn't become a paper weight on your night stand.
We craft our jewelry using genuine precious metals like .925 sterling silver and 18k yellow gold, chosen for their quality and reliability. The numbers reflect the purity of the metal: .925 means it is 92.5% pure silver, while 18k gold contains 75% pure gold, blended with alloys for added strength and durability. These purity levels are key in determining the value and authenticity of each piece. Thank you for being a part of CHIDA and trusting us to bring you quality that you and your family can appreciate for a lifetime!
LOVE, CHIDA
