Celebrating 50 Years of Birmingham Jewelry: A Legacy of Love, Craftsmanship, and Family

Celebrating 50 Years of Birmingham Jewelry: A Legacy of Love, Craftsmanship, and Family

In 1975, a master jeweler with a heart of gold and a soul made of diamonds opened the doors to what would become a treasured Michigan landmark. Gregory Pilibosian, known affectionately by many as the "King of Diamonds," founded Birmingham Jewelry with one goal: to bring beauty, integrity, and exceptional craftsmanship to every customer who walked through his door.

Five decades later, we proudly celebrate 50 years of love stories, milestones, and timeless treasures. What began as one man’s passion has evolved into a thriving second-generation family business, transitioning to honor Gregory’s legacy, his daughter Marina Pilibosian Bozabalian gears to step in and lead the business to even greater heights. With deep roots in the community and a steadfast commitment to excellence, Birmingham Jewelry has grown into Michigan’s most trusted fine jeweler—home to the largest selection of engagement rings in Michigan and a proud Verragio boutique.

Honoring a Legacy

Gregory’s unmatched artistry and kindness shaped every aspect of Birmingham Jewelry. His hands have created countless custom pieces, repaired beloved heirlooms, and transformed fleeting moments into lasting memories. As we celebrate this incredible milestone, we also prepare to honor Gregory's upcoming retirement. While bittersweet, it gives our longtime customers and those who have always dreamed of a custom piece from Gregory a chance to schedule their appointments now, before it's too late.

Whether it's a one-of-a-kind custom design or a special jewelry repair, now is the moment to make those memories with the jeweler who started it all.
