36 | Informa Markets Jewellery Born and raised in Metropolitan New York, Elliot received his introduction into the diamond industry through his father-in-law, well-known diamantaire, Leo Schachter, a De Beers Sightholder since 1966. Elliot received his diamond polishing and manufacturing background under the tutelage of one of New York’s premier rough diamond experts, Chaim Meller. Advancing into the more commercial side of the business after several years, Elliot first managed Leo Schachter’s European polished sales. During that period, he connected with Moshe and Avraham Namdar from Milan who were to become partners with Leo Schachter in a new diamond manufacturing and polished distribution business, Schachter-Namdar, in Tel Aviv. Elliot moved to Israel in 1983 to join the Namdars and together they quickly built what was to become Israel’s largest diamond exporter for more than 30 years. The company was one of the earliest to realise that beneficiation would be a cornerstone of the industry and became one of the first to open a large polishing factory in Botswana in 1997. Joined by his son Dov and his brother-in-law David Greenberg, they continue building their worldwide polished distribution primarily through multi-store retail chains around the world specialising in developing proprietary programmes designed to fit the needs of local markets. Their Leo and Peonia Diamonds have both become very successful in the Far East and the US. Elliot在紐約出生和成長，其岳父是自1966年成為戴比爾斯看貨商的著名鑽石商Leo Schachter。Elliot在他的引薦下進入鑽石行業，並跟從紐約首屈一指的毛坯鑽石專家 Chaim Meller學習鑽石拋光和製造知識，數年後加入商業領域，擔任Leo Schachter的歐洲 拋光鑽石銷售管理工作。在此期間，他認識了來自米蘭的Moshe和Avraham Namdar，他 們其後成為Leo Schachter在特拉維夫的新鑽石製造和拋光鑽石分銷業務——Schachter- Namdar的合作夥伴。 Elliot於1983年移居以色列，與Moshe和Avraham Namdar一起建立了以色列最大的 鑽石出口企業。該公司一早已意識到選礦將成為行業的基石，並於1997年成為首批在波 札那開設大型拋光工廠的公司。他的兒子Dov和David Greenberg其後加入公司，通過世 界各地的零售連鎖商建立全球拋光鑽石分銷業務，致力開發能滿足當地市場需求的專有 計劃。他們的Leo和Peonia鑽石在遠東和美國市場備受青睞。 ELLIOT TANNENBAUM Senior Principal, Leo Schachter Diamond Group Leo Schachter Diamond Group 高級總監
