Create an AccountWhile at Best Products, my father was the jewelry and diamond buyer for the entire corporation. Wanting to further his career, he attended the GIA to become a graduate gemologist.
In 1974, after graduating from the GIA, my father moved back to Greensboro NC to start his own business, Bardy’s Diamond Center. From that one store, the company grew to 7 stores throughout North Carolina. Over the years, while cultivating our fine jewelry business, my father developed a passion for estate jewelry, and turned it into a niche for our business.
In 1996, my husband Joel joined the family business, and became a graduate gemologist.
During his early years with the company, Joel worked hand in hand with my father and grandfather to develop and grow the estate department. The three of them set up at trade shows to sell to estate dealers from all over the world. They became known as “wholesale dealers to the trade”. This opened up a whole new world for our business. After my father retired, Joel and I bought the business in 2007. We made our primary focus estate jewelry, diamonds, and signed pieces. In order to keep up with the change in the retail environment, we increased our online presence, which then enabled us to serve retail customers worldwide.
The business grew to a point that in 2016 we decided to close our Greensboro brick and mortar store to concentrate on our wholesale, tradeshow, and online businesses.

I contacted Bardy's with help on a piece I had purchased for resale. Prior to contacting them, I had been given multiple opinions and found little assistance and actually resistance from other dealers in answering my questions. I just wanted accurate information on the date and value of the piece. Not only did I receive help, but Joel took a considerable amount of time explaining details, showing me specifics, even offering to give me the carat weight of the stones in the piece I wanted to sell. He treated me as if I were there to purchase an expensive piece. He was transparent in pricing and educating me on how to move forward with my business and education in the field. His pieces were beautiful and they have curated beautiful estate pieces. I am so grateful for their help and patience. I look forward to actually purchasing from them!

This was my first purchase with 1stdibs. I was a little uncomfortable because of the amount of money I was paying. Joel with Bardy's Estate Jewelry, the seller could not have been more honest and gave me a great comfort level. The transaction from start to finish was seamless. I have a wife that is thrilled. Extremely pleased with the service that Joel provided.

I was looking for a genuine art deco engagement ring and this is the only place around that had any sort of selection. I had tried on hundreds of rings and hated them all, until the nice lady at Bardy's slipped this little platinum ring on my finger. I instantly knew it was my ring. My fiance wasn't quite ready to buy, and to my surprise, they held it for us for a couple of months until he could afford it. They were also negotiable on the price. I wish I could have such luck finding a wedding band to match! I highly recommend this place if you want a vintage or an antique ring. They have beautiful, unique, quality jewelry and helpful staff. It is without a doubt the most beautiful item I've ever owned.
