The Secret You Have To Share
INSIDE THE WORLD OF RAZ & COMPANY
Michelle ' s breathtaking Asscher cut diamond ring.
Nine years ago, Jonathan Steingraber knelt down and proposed to Michelle Pais with a breathtaking Asscher cut diamond ring. But it wasn’ t just any ring— it was a symbol of trust, crafted by a jeweler who would come to mean much more to Jon than just a professional connection. That jeweler was Dan Raz of Raz & Company, a name that’ s become synonymous with integrity, exceptional craftsmanship, and a deeply personal approach to fine jewelry.
Jon and Michelle’ s story began at one of Jon’ s own networking events, NJRESN, where fate brought them together. They started dating shortly after, and just two months later, Jon purchased the engagement ring that would mark the start of their forever. Six months later, on June 4, 2016, during a trip to St. Barts, Jon proposed aboard a boat at sunset, reading Michelle a heartfelt poem he had written just for her. A year later, on June 4, 2017, they sealed their love story with a wedding that commemorated not just a promise, but a perfectly timed journey that had unfolded with serendipity and soul.
“ It starts with trust,” Jon says, reflecting on why he continues to return to Dan for every meaningful jewelry gift.“ It’ s knowing you’ re not going to be steered wrong. That’ s why our clients send their family and friends to us. It’ s a place where people feel at home,” shared Dan.
