Helzberg Diamonds is into hard rocks. The company sells a wide selection of diamonds and precious gems -- mostly set into rings, but also set into other jewelry; Helzberg Diamonds also sells men's and women's watches. One of the largest national jewelry chains, the company operates more than 260 stores nationwide. Helzberg Diamonds was founded in 1915 by Morris Helzberg and remained in his family until 1995, when it was acquired by investment guru Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. Long a mall-based chain, the company opened more than 45 freestanding locations in the 1990s. Helzberg Diamonds offers a 60-day return or exchange option and free jewelry repairs for 12 months after purchase.
