Colin Ferguson

As an internationally recognized diamond and rare jewel broker, Colin Ferguson is known for his attention to detail and uncanny ability to identify exceptionally rare and beautiful Natural Fancy Colored Diamonds. For more than 25 years, Mr. Ferguson has traveled to places such as Belgium, India, Australia, and South Africa in search of rare diamonds for his clients.

Early in his career, Mr. Ferguson was mentored by a renowned diamond expert and De Beers sight holder. This experience provided him with a unique opportunity to learn more about the role of diamonds as investments. During this time, he learned to negotiate multi-million dollar shipments to manufacturers, retailers, and wholesalers throughout Canada. This training was invaluable; it helped him to start his own company in 1989.

Colin Ferguson's diamond philosophy is much more open than that of other gem brokers. Mr. Ferguson believes in what he refers to as the 4 Cs of rare jewelinvesting: competence, credibility, cost, and commitment. He offers an Investor Protection Program to provide clients with the opportunity of a 30-day evaluation period for any stone purchase. If the client decides the diamond is not satisfactory, Mr. Ferguson offers a 30 money-back guarantee.

In addition to his work in the rare gem industry, Colin Ferguson is a respected philanthropist. He has donated to over 100 different organizations and received several accolades for his generosity. In 1999, he received the Most Venerable Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem medal. In 2000, he was recognized by the celebrated hockey player, Wayne Gretzky, for his contributions to the “Gentlemen, Start your engines!” charity.
