The origins of A. link Co. predate 1900. Mr. Adolph Link, son of a Viennese goldsmith, came to New York City in 1894. Growing up on New York''s lower east side, he met the youngest daughter of a rabbi, Anna, whom he married in 1912. Adolph apprenticed as a platinum jeweler with Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels. His wife''s diligent work enabled him to purchased raw gold and platinum to fabricate his own designs along with Fifth Avenue''s greatest craftsmen.
 
In the early 1940''s Adolph''s two sons joined their father in his business. Seymour becoming a jeweler and Marvin apprenticed as a diamond cutter in antwerp. It is from these two trades that A.Link derived its reputation as a dealer in the finest made diamonds and a manufacturer of traditional diamond jewelry. Having championed diamonds manufactured to uniform standards during times when this was not in vogue, A. link has consistently sold diamonds of the same make for well over a century. We call these stones "60/60"''s, a term which refers to their table and depth percentages combined with good/ excellent symmetry and polishing. A necklace just catches my eyes. For over one hundred years, the diamond jewelry of A. Link has been created with one prevailing principle: accentuate the brilliance of a diamond. Here in the Lattice Collection, precious gems take center stage in the exquisitely crafted mountings that deliberately expose all of a diamond’s dazzling magnificence. Metal is minimized allowing light to fully immerse the diamonds. From boardroom to ballroom, make A. Link your choice for the very best in diamond jewelry.
