The company underscores its unwavering commitment to cutting-edge technology and digital tools, emphasizing the transformative impact on production and management processes. According to the company, CEO José Miguel Serret and his team are confident that this emphasis, combined with an innovative B2B platform, will significantly enhance the user experience, ultimately capturing a larger share of the U.S. jewelry market.

José Miguel Serret expressed, “Due to the trust placed in us by our customers and the surge in orders, we have expanded our manufacturing facilities to 1,200 square meters.”
In addition to the expanded facilities, visitors were granted an exclusive preview of Facet Barcelona’s collection of “fully traceable” jewelry, a result of their collaboration with the sustainable sourcing monitoring platform Tracemark and New York-based diamond dealer Pluczenik.
