In 2017, Nicholas Flathau took a leap of faith. At the time, he had no clue how close he was to finding his dream job. He was 23, had been living on his own for the last six years, and just dropped out of nursing school. However, that blind faith landed him his own AT&T franchise and, within a year, his first million dollars. Yet, he didn’t feel like this was his life’s passion. Then he discovered the world of custom jewelry.
Flathau began to develop a taste for the finer things as his AT&T franchise became more and more successful. One hobby he had picked up was collecting custom pieces of jewelry from a local jeweler. Slowly, the Chicago-born Flathau became more and more infatuated with the craftsmanship of the pieces he was acquiring. So obsessed that he began researching diamond suppliers, jewel quality, and learning how to design pieces himself. With the extent he was going to in his research, Flathau had the epiphany that this was more than a hobby.
Flathau took what he had learned from his tireless research and founded Flawless Diamonds Co. He spent time building the perfect team around him and has begun taking over the custom jewelry industry. Finding those people that make up the Flawless Family was one of the most important parts of this process for Flathau. “Find people within your circle who will push you to get better, push you to think outside of the box, and push you to strive to your top goal,” Flathau shares.
Flathau sees an end goal of having Flawless Diamonds Co. in every major city in the country. However, the company’s most important aspect is providing quality and unique jewelry for each of its clients. “My ultimate goal for Flawless Diamonds is to be recognized as a premium jewelry company and where customers can come and purchase with confidence and be satisfied.”
