ABOUT US

Since 1982, spanning two generations, Gerald Peters has proudly served the Staten Island and Brooklyn communities with the very best the jewelry industry has to offer. As a truly family-owned and operated business, our mission has always been to provide customers with the highest standards of quality, craftsmanship, and service in fine jewelry.

Founded in 1982 by Jerry Amerosi Sr. at Caesar’s Bay Bazaar in Brooklyn, the business—then known as Goldmine—began with a single showcase of children’s charms. In 1992, Goldmine expanded to a freestanding store on 18th Avenue, where Jerry renamed it “Gerald Peters” in honor of his two sons, Gerald and Peter.

Following great success in Brooklyn, Gerald Peters Goldmine relocated to Staten Island in 1996.

After two decades of growth at the Staten Island Mall, the store took a bold step forward in 2015—opening a new location within the mall that was triple the size of the original. This move introduced over twice as many brands and marked a refined evolution of the Gerald Peters name.

In 2025, Gerald Peters entered its next chapter with the opening of a grand, free-standing location on Richmond Road. Featuring four showrooms across two levels, this destination offers an unparalleled luxury experience, setting a new standard for jewelry shopping in New York.
