When an oyster swallows a grain of sand it feels the discomfort, so it begins to ease the pain by applying a coat of nacre (pearl). It is during this healing process that it created a beautiful pearl. This is like life itself. It is easy to love in good times, but it takes courage to love through discomfort of our lives. The gemstone represents the grain of sand, the beauty inside evoking an aura of love, courage, and healing. It is this unique transformation that has given birth to the “Galatea Pearl” the symbol of love. – Chi Galatea Huynh.

The terms “Getting Engaged” or “I just got Engaged” send many people into a frenzy: “Can I see the ring?”; “How big is the diamond?”; “How much did it cost?”; “Have you set the date yet?”

The nature of these questions has the unfortunate tendency to obscure the more important meaning of the word “Engaged.”

Romance and passion are almost lost to logistics and the engagement ring is assigned a role as proof of purchase.

Gabriel & Co. sees getting “Engaged” in a different way. They see something more – something more enchanting, adventurous, sensuous, and exhilarating — to getting “Engaged.” It’s much more than a ring, a stone, a price and a date. When two people are in love – love beyond passion – and have a shared desire to commit themselves to one another, they are “Engaged” in the truest sense of the word. Gabriel & Co. believes that choosing a ring to celebrate this exuberant state of being “Engaged” should be one of life’s joys.

Gabriel & Co. redefines the word “Engaged” to once again capture the magic and beauty of this committed love.
