Kimberly Collins
Kimberly Collins has always had an interest in beautiful things, thanks to her mother, a professional artist, and her father, a lifelong collector of gems, minerals and other exotic treasures from around the world.
She received a bachelor’s degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management at Northern Arizona University and worked for a time at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, but knew there was more out there for her. That’s why she jumped at the chance to travel to Nairobi and learn the tanzanite business there, learning everything she could about gems and laying the groundwork for her true life’s work. Kimberly then moved to San Francisco and formed Kindy African Gemstone Company in 1995, changing the name to Collins & Collins Fine Colored Gemstones when she went into partnership with her then-husband. But the best was yet to come.
After broadening her horizons still further with eye-opening trips to Bangkok and Sri Lanka, Kimberly decided to go independent. In 2008, she opened Kimberly Collins Colored Gems, featuring a continually expanding inventory and adding a finished colored-stone jewelry line.
Kimberly considers it a great privilege to be able to share her expertise, attention to detail and her dedication with jewelers. Kimberly strives to provide them with the very finest in colored gems and hopes that you’ll create your next masterpieces with stunning gemstones from Kimberly Collins Colored Gems.
