Our Story

A private jeweler
rooted in Nairobi.

Hatatian Jewelry was born from a singular belief: that Africa's earth holds some of the most extraordinary gemstones in the world — and that those stones deserve to be treated with integrity, artistry, and reverence from the moment they leave the ground.

"We don't sell jewelry. We create heirlooms — one stone, one person, one story at a time."

As a private jeweler operating by appointment from our Lavington Aterlier, every relationship begins with a conversation. There is no catalogue to browse, no shelf to scan. Instead, we sit with you, understand your story, and build something that will outlive the moment it was made for.

The Gemstones
Hatatian Gems

Stones with
stories older
than time.

Kenya and East Africa sit atop one of the most geologically remarkable regions on earth. The same ancient forces that shaped the Great Rift Valley also crystallised some of the world's rarest gems. We source them with care, trace them with integrity, and transform them with artistry.

Tsavorite Garnet
Tsavo, Kenya · Discovered 1967

The rarest of garnets — a vivid green of extraordinary saturation and brilliance. Found only in the arc stretching from Tanzania through Kenya, tsavorite is prized above emerald by those who know stones.

Rarity
Teal Sapphire
Garbatula, Kenya

Where blue meets green in a single stone. Teal sapphires shift with the light — from deep ocean at dusk to bright sky at noon. No two are alike, and their character only deepens over time.

Rarity
Dragon Garnet
Tanzania · Colour-change

One of the most coveted phenomena in gemology — Dragon Garnet shifts from mauve in daylight to fiery red under incandescent light. A stone that is never the same stone twice.

Rarity
Spinel
Tanzania · Variety of Colors

Tanzanian Spinels are unique for their incredible diversity of color, ranging from pinks and reds to rare cobalt blues and even Jedi oranges, all unified by a natural brilliance that requires no heat treatment.

Rarity
Aquamarine
Kenyan · Pale Blue

The blue of still water at first light — aquamarine carries a serene clarity that no other stone replicates. Kenyan aquamarine is known for its exceptional transparency and gentle, unwavering colour.

Rarity
Ethical Sourcing
Fully Traced · Mine to Atelier

Every Hatatian Gems stone arrives with a clear trace of its journey — who found it, where, and how. We work only with mining partners who protect both the land and the livelihoods of local communities.

Ethics & Origin
Stewardship

We are stewards,
not just sellers.

Africa has long watched its most precious resources leave its borders with too little benefit returned to the communities that uncovered them. Hatatian Jewelry was founded to be different.

"The earth gives. We are obligated to give back with the same generosity."

We source directly. We pay fairly. We trace openly. And we tell the full story of every stone — because you deserve to know exactly what you are wearing, and who made it possible.

The Bespoke Journey
How It Works

From first word
to finished piece.

We take on a limited number of commissions each season to ensure every journey is intentional and personal.

01
Private Consultation

An uninterrupted hour dedicated to your vision. We discuss design concepts, budget, and initial quotations.
Fee: $35 per hour.

02
Stone Selection

We explore our library of gemstones, discussing their origins and suitability for your design. Bespoke creations require an 8-week minimum timeline.

03
Design & Craft

Your concept is translated into a precise 3D digital model (CAD). This allows you to view and approve every angle before we proceed to work.

04
The Unveiling

After approval, we proceed with the final craftsmanship. The journey concludes with the unveiling of your unique collection piece.
