Fischler Diamonds

What Fischler Diamonds does

Fischler Diamonds NV is a third-generation, family-owned diamond trading and manufacturing firm founded in 1953 by Bram Fischler and cousins Aby and Cappi Fischler in Antwerp, Belgium. It operates across three continents through offices in Antwerp (headquarters), New York (established 1980 as FD Inc NY), and Hong Kong (established June 2011 as Fischler Diamonds Asia), with a headcount of 11–50. The company's product surface spans the full diamond lifecycle: polished diamond sales, rough diamond sourcing, expert diamond cutting to American Gem Society (AGS) standards, custom/tailormade jewelry creation, and post-sale maintenance (cleaning, repolishing, repair), supplemented by a secondary-market diamond buying service.

The business is primarily B2B, serving diamond dealers and wholesalers, jewelry manufacturers, and retail jewelers (the named enterprise customer Vanscoy, Maurer & Bash has imported directly from Fischler for over 35 years), with a secondary motion toward individual consumers seeking bespoke pieces. Core capabilities rest on human gemological expertise, a proprietary diamond parceling system that sorts stones by quality for customer hand-selection, and Kimberley Process-compliant ethical sourcing. Revenue is generated through one-time diamond transactions, custom jewelry commissions, and professional cutting/maintenance services; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, and distribution is entirely direct via showrooms, phone/email consultation, online booking, and international shipping — with no intermediaries, e-commerce platform, or mobile app.

The firm carries notable industry-governance influence: Stephane Fischler serves as president of the Antwerp World Diamond Centre and has acted as World Diamond Council president addressing the UN General Assembly on the Kimberley Process, while Bram Fischler holds honorary life presidency of the WFDB, and family members sit on the Responsible Jewellery Council and Diamond Development Initiative boards. The firm is privately held with no disclosed external investors, no funding rounds, no acquisitions, and no patents — a relationship-driven traditional wholesale diamond business rather than a technology-enabled growth platform.
