Diamond Outlet offers our customers
one of the strongest diamond backgrounds
found in any jewelry store in the
country. Paul Forster started working
in the jewelry business in 1961. He
made his first overseas buying trip
to Israel in 1965. Paul and his wife
Faye opened and managed stores for
Zales and Gordons before Paul joined
Service Merchandise in 1971. He spent
the majority of his time with Service
Merchandise as their international
diamond buyer. His buying trips took
him to diamond markets in New York,
Antwerp, and Israel. He was one of
the first U.S. diamond buyers to travel
to Bombay, India in the late 1970's.
Paul left Service Merchandise in 1981
and the next year he and Faye opened
Diamond Outlet
in Nashville.
Bob and Helen Forster have worked for two of the largest diamond
companies in the world. Bob started working in New York in 1979
and has been traveling internationally since 1983. His business
trips have taken him to jewelry markets in China, Thailand,
India, Italy, Antwerp, Switzerland, England, and Russia. Helen
graduated from the Gemological Institute of America in New York
in 1984. Helen and Bob worked together in New York from 1984
to 1996. They purchased Diamond Outlet
and moved to Nashville in 1996. |
