The I. Gorman Story


Our Story

Ivan and Bonnie Gorman founded I. Gorman Jewelers in 1981 with a vision to offer the Washington area high quality, creative jewelry in a warm and inviting atmosphere. Their son, Adam, a Graduate Gemologist, joined in this vision in 1996, as did daughter Nicole in 2004. Together with the seven other "family" mambers, I. Gorman is about to celebrate its 25th anniversary in the same downtown DC location. Today, I. Gorman Jewelers is proud to be an award-winning retail destination featuring cutting edge design in bridal and fashion jewelry, and customer service that is second to none.
