About Gransky

The story of Gransky is one that spans generations and is steeped in the timeless artistry of jade. It all started back in 1971, when the founder's father first ventured to Burma to source the raw, mesmerizing jadeite that would become the heart of this family legacy.

What captivated him was the deep symbolism and mythology surrounding this precious stone - a fascination that would fuel his lifelong journey to become a true master craftsman. Over the course of five decades, he honed his skills, learning the intricate techniques of cutting jade and selecting the most exquisite rough stones directly from the renowned Burmese sources.

Sourcing jade is no easy feat - its value is notoriously difficult to ascertain, requiring a true virtuoso's touch. But with a lifetime of experience under his belt, this visionary was able to supply jade to discerning buyers across the United States, Europe, and Asia from his shop on the renowned "Jade Street" of Hong Kong's Canton Road.

Now, Gransky carries on this legacy of refined craftsmanship, with a team of talented designers, skilled artisans, and knowledgeable sales professionals who shape the brand's enduring influence in the world of fashion jewelry. Gransky has earned the trust of an affluent, sophisticated clientele who seek out these exceptional, one-of-a-kind creations.

At the heart of it all is the founder, Matt Lo, who quite literally grew up surrounded by his father's passion for this captivating stone. Inspired by this rich heritage, Matt decided to expand the family business, bringing a refreshing, modern touch to the classical designs. On trips to Myanmar, he felt the same sense of wonder and was driven to carry on the family's legacy of expertise. With each carefully selected stone, he imbues Gransky's contemporary creations with the same vision that his father possessed - creating treasures that will be passed down for generations to come.

Over the years, he has gained exposure to quality jade rough and built a strong network of connections in Burma, allowing him to source the finest materials. Can you imagine the thrill of uncovering these exquisite gems? Through these exchanges, he has come to intimately understand the ancient craft and cultural significance of this revered gemstone. And we're thrilled to have the opportunity to share these extraordinary discoveries with you.

Seeking to blend his business acumen with this timeless artistry, he pursued an advanced degree that gave him the strategic vision and entrepreneurial courage to launch the brand, Gransky, in 2017. He also obtained several important certifications in the gemstones and diamonds field, solidifying his expertise in these precious materials. 

With Gransky, we aim to share the elegance and heritage of jade in a fresh, modern way. Jewelry has the power to uplift and inspire, and at our jade jewelry shop, we share this belief and aim to redefine the traditional notions of jade accessories. While the family's designs evoke a classic charm, Matt has purposefully blended these time-honored techniques with a more accessible, everyday aesthetic, embracing a minimalist style that blends the rich cultural heritage of China with a modern, Western sensibility. The ethos behind our creations is to bring joy and enchantment into people's lives, as Matt believes everyone deserves to experience the beauty and meaning of these extraordinary gems.

We invite you to join us on this remarkable journey where the mystique of the East meets the refinement of the West. Together, let us create something truly sublime.
