Mankato – Exclusively Diamonds

After 38 years in business, Exclusively Diamonds continues to grow prompting a move to a bigger space at 1601 Adams Street in Mankato.

“The larger showroom has a more extensive Rolex buildout, increases our bridal/engagement ring space, and provides ample space for us to host our annual Holiday Party and Ladies’ Night complete with live music and catering,” says Maria Person, Vice President of Exclusively Diamonds.

She says the focal point of the new building is a magnificent crystal chandelier.

“It has more than 570 crystals and really is a statement piece for our showroom. We also love our new Vetter Stone wall and Cambria countertops, carefully chosen to complement the new building. It was a special goal of ours to feature some of Southern Minnesota’s finest products, many of which are used in constructions around the world,” says Person.

Overall, though, the goal of the new space all comes down to one thing from the iconic Mankato company: providing a unique and special customer experience.


“We have a passion for providing an outstanding experience for our clients each and every time they enter the store,” says Person. “That motivates everything we do. Our customers are special to us. We feel it is our job to make their visit to Exclusively Diamonds the highlight of their day. It does not matter what stage of the jewelry buying cycle people are in – whether it is the very first time to buy a piece of jewelry or if they have several beautiful pieces – we offer the ultimate value in our products, services and expertise.”

Exclusively Diamonds can now be found in the former Wells Federal Bank building on Adams Street. While the location has changed, Person says the core of who they are, has not as they will continue to feature jewelry collections from around the world combined with their signature legendary service now in a new space that truly showcases what they have to offer.

“Customers can look forward to a more luxurious browsing experience. Our new location offers several different areas for clients to lounge, drink coffee, or enjoy a glass of wine while they shop,” Person says.
