Gem Breakfast
Gem Breakfast creates boldly crafted, consciously sourced jewelry that is uniquely ours. Headquartered in San Francisco, CA.
Gem Breakfast is an independent woman-owned bespoke jewelry company based in San Francisco curating the best in joyful, personal, and unique engagement and wedding jewelry. Our belief is that fine jewelry should be fun, approachable, and a joyful expression of your personal style & love story.
Whether you’re ring shopping for the first time or adding to your family jewels, we curate a dazzling collection of one-of-a-kind pieces from emerging independent designers – think unique diamonds, champagne hues, and sapphires in every shade – or help you through the process of a custom creation.
Gem Breakfast was founded by Catherine Cason, a GIA graduate & self-professed jewelry addict. Every piece & every stone is handpicked with care to meet her high standards for craftsmanship, ethics, and originality. “To me, fine jewelry isn’t just for big milestones—it’s for celebrating your everyday magic and personal style, and I’m here to make the experience fun, transparent, and full of heart.” Come see us in our San Francisco office or work with us online from anywhere in the world!
Gem Breakfast is committed to inclusive jewelry that’s comfortable for all bodies, all genders, and all love stories. Your rings should be as unique as you and your partner are, and just as ready to stand the test of time.

How do you help calm down nervous lovers?
Your engagement or wedding might be the first time you’re shopping for fine jewelry – let us bring our skills to bear to take some of the stress off your plate! The Gem Breakfast team melds rigorous GIA-certified skill with a customer-first approach, so whether we’re helping you decide on a ready-made one-of-a-kind piece or creating a custom ring, we’ll never push a sale or proceed without your full comfort in every decision. We can help develop the mood, hunt for gems, engrave secret love notes, and provide CAD mockups of every custom piece.
How do you personalize a wedding experience for each couple?
We tailor our support to each client based on their needs: some clients need a lot of guidance/education, some know exactly what they want! Sometimes both partners want to be involved in the design process and sometimes they want a surprise!
There’s no “right” engagement style or wedding ring, there’s only what fits you and your partner’s style, budget, and personality. We know this process can be overwhelming – so we make sure that our communication is consistent and nothing in the process ever happens without client approval and consent.
How do you capture the unique personalities of the people you work with?
Our approach to jewelry is gem-first, and our approach to clients is you-first. Like we build the ring around the perfect stone, we build custom rings around the personalities & stories of our clients. Share anything and everything you want with us, from moodboards to favorite paintings to plans for the proposal. Our expertise is in refining that wealth of detail into a ring with just the right amount of sparkle and personalization!
Especially for queer couples, we’re excited to create rings that coordinate without matching through hand-cut engraving, similar stones, repeated motifs, or other bespoke details.
