Michael Golansky
Founder & Managing Director for Gem Solutions Ltd.
Graduate Gemologist
At the age of 21, Michael embarked on his journey in the gem industry. Following the completion of an intensive gemological course, his fascination with gem production grew. Opting to specialize as a gem cutter, he dedicated up to 12 hours a day to assorting and polishing white diamonds in Israel, under the tutelage of a master cutter boasting over 40 years of experience.
Three years later, driven by a desire for deeper insight into global markets, Michael relocated to New York. Travelling extensively throughout America, he engaged in sales, marketing, and the organization of international jewelry and gem fairs. Over the span of six years in New York, Michael broadened his expertise in fancy color diamonds, colorless diamonds, and world market prices, while collaborating with leading manufacturing companies from Israel and India.
Maintaining his curiosity for manufacturing, Michael encountered a seasoned expert with generational experience and a doctorate in gemstones. This mentor guided him through the intricacies of color stones, fostering a mentorship that endures to this day.
As the pandemic unfolded, Michael immersed himself in laboratory research, tirelessly experimenting with various methods, fillers, cutting techniques, and polishing in a quest for perfecting the art of emeralds. It was during this time that Gem Solutions was conceived, born from Michael's relentless pursuit of excellence in the gemstone industry.
