In mid-2020, the world came to a standstill. The COVID-19 pandemic brought lockdowns that disrupted industries worldwide—including ours. For decades, our business thrived on in-person connections, whether through international trade fairs or welcoming clients to experience our crystals firsthand. However, with travel restrictions in place, our traditional model faced an unprecedented challenge.
Determined to adapt, Marcelo invited his sons, Gustavo and Marel, to lead the company into the digital world. Together, we launched the official Exclusive Gems from Brazil profiles on Instagram and Facebook, transforming social media into our primary bridge to clients and crystal lovers worldwide.
The response was extraordinary. Our community grew rapidly, fueled by our commitment to quality, authenticity, and the personal touch that has always defined us. Today, with a family of over 30,000 crystal enthusiasts and more than 2,000 international clients, Exclusive Gems from Brazil has become a global reference in the wholesale crystal market.
Despite our exponential growth, one thing remains unchanged: our roots. We carry with us the same warmth, ethics, and integrity that define the people of Minas Gerais. Whether online or in person, we continue to share the beauty of Brazilian crystals with the world—always with the heart of a true family business.
