Brand history
20CARATS represents over a century of family jewelry craftsmanship and heritage. The story began in 1925 in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, where the Tran family operated a jewelry restoration atelier serving local aristocratic families.
Following the family’s relocation to the United States in 1989, the business was placed on hold, though the craftsmanship, expertise, and passion for fine jewelry continued through generations. In 2019, the fourth generation revived the legacy through the establishment of IMR Diamond LLC in Manhattan, New York, specializing in exceptional earth mined and rare fancy colored diamonds.
In 2024, the brand evolved into 20CARATS, expanding its expertise into both natural and lab grown diamonds while preserving the family’s enduring commitment to artistry, precision, and uncompromising quality. Today, 20CARATS stands as the culmination of one hundred years of knowledge, dedication, and refined craftsmanship carried across four generations.
