About the Founder

Chandy Zhao is the founder of SightlyCarat. She holds an MBA and entered the jewelry industry in 2020 in Shenzhen, China—one of the world’s largest jewelry and gemstone trading hubs.

Working closely with diamond suppliers, gemstone dealers, and skilled craftsmen, she developed strong expertise in both lab-grown diamonds and colored gemstones. Being based in Shenzhen gives her direct access to high-quality stones and experienced workshops.

Today, Chandy focuses on helping clients create meaningful pieces—from engagement rings to unique custom designs—while ensuring every stone is carefully selected and every piece is crafted with attention to detail.

Our Workshop

Our workshop is located in Shenzhen, China—one of the world’s largest jewelry manufacturing centers. Here, experienced craftsmen carefully handle every step of the process, from stone selection to setting and polishing.

Each piece of jewelry is crafted with attention to detail. Diamonds and gemstones are inspected before production, and every setting is finished by skilled hands to ensure durability, balance, and brilliance.

By working closely with trusted workshops and suppliers in the local jewelry hub, we are able to maintain strict quality standards while keeping our designs flexible for both ready-to-ship pieces and custom creations

Our Philosophy

We believe jewelry should be beautiful, meaningful, and accessible. As we spent more time in the industry, we realized that traditional diamond mining often comes with environmental impact and unnecessary markups that place fine jewelry out of reach for many people.

Lab-grown diamonds offer a different path. They are created using advanced technology, free from mining-related harm, and certified by respected laboratories such as IGI. By working directly with trusted suppliers and skilled craftsmen, we focus on quality, transparency, and thoughtful design.

To us, jewelry is not defined by its price tag, but by the moments it represents.Our goal is simple: to help clients create meaningful jewelry—from engagement rings to custom designs—using carefully selected lab-grown diamonds, thoughtful design, and honest pricing.
