Our Founder
Founder, StudsDirect · Former Diamond Manufacturer, Mumbai SEEPZ

Twenty years at SEEPZ means our founder has personally graded, cut, and shipped more diamonds than most retail jewelers have ever seen. He founded StudsDirect to sell the same manufacturer-quality stones directly to buyers — no retail markup, no brand premium, just IGI-certified diamonds at honest prices.

What Customers Say

★★★★★

“I compared these side by side with the ones at Tiffany. Identical sparkle, a third of the price. My partner thought I spent way more.”

★★★★★

“Got the IGI certificate with the earrings. Our founder answered my questions same day. This is how fine jewelry should be sold.”

James T.
★★★★★

“Wore them to a gala and three women asked where I got them. I didn't tell them what I paid. Stunning quality.”
