A story of drive, compassion, and achievement is the story of the founders of CulturaDeOro.com. In 1970 a family of five immigrated to the United States for better opportunities and a life that allowed them to flourish and achieve their dreams. The eldest child of 3 named Arturo, practiced to be a dental technician in a friends basement in order to qualify for a scholarship to attend school that he could not afford at the time.

His passion for dental technology and intelligence immediately got him enrolled into UCLA to continue his studies in dental technology. After graduation and overcoming a lot of financial and personal hardships, Arturo decided to become a college professor and taught dentistry students for many years. In 1992, Arturo wanted to apply his education into a more creative arena. Hence, he started his very own jewelry manufacturing company.

With his education in dental technology Arturo knew the meaning of quality, accuracy, detail, excellent craftsmanship, and above all perfection. Arturo and his family have been in jewelry manufacturing and the wholesale business for over 15 years and have developed some of the most popular designs in the world. . They have not only provided excellent quality but also the most competitive prices in the industry. Their jewelry is currently sold at Sams Club, Costco, and QVC.

Arturo has always believed in the concept of providing affordable goods to everyone. For the first time he will open his doors to the general public with the help of his nephew who has also graduated UCLA.

Arturo came from an extremely poor family and has been able to build himself the American Dream through his hard work and dedication. His passion for jewelry can be seen in the variety that CULTURADEORO.com provides.

“We hope that we can share a piece of our success with you and hope that not only you enjoy the jewelry, but the jewelry inspires you to achieve your dreams” - Arturo
