The Beginning of Rahaminov Diamonds
Rahaminov Diamonds began its journey in the 1940s when the Rahaminov brothers, including Moshe Rahaminov, established themselves as skilled diamond cutters in Israel’s Buchara Diamonds cooperative. Their expertise led them to expand their first branch of Rahaminov Diamonds into Valenza, Italy, cementing their reputation in diamond cutting and jewelry design.
In the 1980s, Moshe's daughter, Tamara Rahaminov, brought new energy to the family business. While studying at the Gemological Institute of America, she met Amir Goldfiner, her now husband and business partner, and the couple launched Rahaminov's Los Angeles office in 1989. Tamara’s innovative designs, paired with Amir’s business acumen, transformed Rahaminov into a luxury jewelry brand known for its exquisite creations.
Amir's journey into the world of diamonds was influenced by a profound appreciation for their beauty and potential. With a background in both gemology and business, Amir combined his technical expertise with a keen sense of what makes a diamond truly special. His unique approach to design, focusing on innovative cuts and settings, helped transform Rahaminov into a celebrated name among collectors and celebrities alike.
The Rahaminov Family’s Hands-On Approach to Design
One of the most distinctive aspects of Rahaminov Diamonds is the family's deep involvement in every facet of the business. Tamara Rahaminov Goldfiner, Amir’s wife, leads the creative direction, ensuring that each design is both innovative and enduring. Their daughters, Nicol and Melanie Goldfiner, now carry this legacy forward as the third generation. Nicol works alongside her mother on the creative side, infusing a fresh perspective into the designs, while Melanie manages the business operations with her father, Amir. Together, they bring a modern vision to Rahaminov, blending their family's rich heritage with a focus on the future.
The Goldfiner family's hands-on approach ensures that every piece of jewelry is crafted with exceptional care, precision, and a deep understanding of their customers' desires. From selecting the perfect diamond for a custom ring to designing a one-of-a-kind necklace, their personal touch is evident in every creation. Each piece is thoughtfully worn and tested by the family before being offered to their trusted retail partners, reflecting their commitment to quality and authenticity.
Rahaminov's Exclusive Cut
One of Rahaminov Diamonds' most significant innovations is the creation of the Signature Movál® Diamond. This proprietary diamond cut uniquely combines the elegance of both marquise and oval shapes, resulting in a stone that is unlike anything else in the market. The Movál® Diamond’s distinctive shape offers a modern twist on traditional cuts, enhancing its brilliance and maximizing the stone's visual impact. This design is a perfect representation of Rahaminov's commitment to pushing the boundaries of what diamond jewelry can be.
The Art of Custom Creations
Rahaminov Diamonds prides itself on its ability to turn a client's vision into reality through its custom design services. Each custom piece is crafted to reflect the individuality of its owner, creating a personal connection between the jewelry and its wearer. From initial sketches to the final setting, the process is a collaborative journey, taking into consideration every detail to ensure that the final piece is exactly what the client envisioned.
One of the standout features of Rahaminov’s custom design process is the quick turnaround time. Unlike many luxury brands that may take several months to deliver a custom piece, Rahaminov can bring a client's dream design to life in just 1-6 weeks. This efficiency, paired with their exceptional design skills, makes Rahaminov a favorite choice for those looking to create a meaningful and unique piece of jewelry.

Every Rahaminov piece undergoes a meticulous quality control process, ensuring that only the highest standards are met.

From checking the diamond's clarity and cut to verifying the durability of the final setting, every step is taken to ensure that the jewelry not only looks stunning but is also made to last.

Rahaminov Diamonds takes pride in keeping their entire production process local, designing and manufacturing every piece in Los Angeles. By keeping their operations in-house, Rahaminov maintains complete control over every aspect of the design process, ensuring that each piece meets their exacting standards.
