GemprintTM is the computerized identification system for diamonds. The company's mission is to establish its proven and patented technology as the global standard for diamond identification.

Every diamond has its own visual signature. It's like a fingerprint - no two are alike. Gemprint uses a non-invasive low-powered laser to capture the unique sparkle pattern of each diamond and registers this image in its database.

The owner receives a registration certificate showing the sparkle pattern along with a detailed description of the stone. Gemprint gives our customers peace of mind and confidence because they know their stone is registered and protected from swapping. And, because ownership information is stored in Gemprint's international database, the recovery of lost or stolen gems is made possible.

Since 1931, when Robert M. Shipley founded the Gemological Institute of America in Los Angeles, GIA has translated its expert knowledge of diamonds and gemstones into the most respected education available in the gem and jewelry industry. The Institute's world renowned curricula of courses, classes, and seminars are developed to help jewelers and their customers deal in a mutually assured spirit of professionalism and trust.

An independent nonprofit organization, GIA is renowned for its impartial service as the world's foremost authority in gemology. The Institute's history of ground-breaking scientific research, education, and gemological laboratory services reads as a virtual chronicle of the industry's own growth and sophistication.

GIA – Creators of the International Diamond Grading System™
From 1953, when Richard T. Liddicoat created and introduced the International Diamond Grading System™ – to the position the Institute holds today as the most respected grading and identification authority in the world – GIA has combined the principles of research, education, and service to help gem and jewelry professionals around the globe use science and product knowledge to sustain the public's trust.


The American Gem Society was established in 1934 by a select group of independent jewelers (including the Warner Co.) and Robert M. Shipley, founder of the prestigious school of gemology, the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).

It was their vision to create an association dedicated to setting and maintaining the highest possible standards of business ethics and professionalism in the jewelry industry. Today, American Gem Society members continue their dedication to ethics, knowledge, and consumer protection.


In 1906, the United States Government paved the way for an organization that will monitor and maintain an ethical standard in the jewelry industry. The JVC, as it is known, is responsible for policing the jewelry industry, making sure that your rights as a consumer are protected from those who are less then honest. By becoming a member of this organization, a jeweler commits themselves to upholding only the highest of ethical standards and practices, and offering only the highest quality items to their clients.

The Warner Co. has taken this pledge, and continues to on a daily basis to promote this pledge in our interactions with our customers. At the Warner Company our clients are not just clients, but family, and with one visit you'll see the Warner Experience makes all the difference!
