SINCE 1966

▪ Black Diamond (formerly known as Raytik) opened its first

OUR S T O R Y

factory in Korea in 1966. At that time, founder Mr. Lee, realized there was more to the jewelry world than just the

chains that he was producing.

▪ From 1997-2004, Mr. Lee opened two factories; one in Qingdao and the other in Yiwu. This was the beginning of

“Jewelry has the power to be the one little thing that makes you feel unique”

the dream to be an industry leader with a platform that serviced directly to the retailers. Along the way, the company was twice the recipient of the prestigious 5-star

- Elizabeth Taylor

award from Macy’s.

▪ It was apparent there was magic here and the Lee family was on the way to fulfilling their dream. In 2007, the showroom was opened in NYC, and in 2013, the space transformed into a design studio to expand the reach to more retailers.
