Scott Kerr speaks to Jean Dousset, a descendant of Louis Cartier and founder of namesake designer jewelry brand Jean Dousset, about his journey from selling only natural diamonds to fully embracing lab-grown. Jean also discusses training at the most esteemed high jewelers before venturing solo, how his diamond engagement ring creations for Eva Longoria and Amy Adams helped make a name for himself when he was starting out, and why shifting to only lab-grown was a better strategic business move. He talks about why UHNWIs are a prime target for lab-grown diamonds, changing people's minds about lab-grown diamonds firsthand at his new boutique, and why lab-grown diamonds are just as much an emotional purchase as earth-mined natural ones. Plus: What would Louis Cartier say about lab-grown diamonds? Featuring: Jean Dousset, Founder & CEO of Jean Dousset (jeandousset.com)Host:
