About
Carlos Montejano, founder of Gold Shield
In short: I'm Carlos Montejano. Since 2018 I've run Gold Shield, a Mexican jewelry brand that handcrafts 10k, 14k and 18k gold, .925 silver and certified natural gemstones, with one principle: buying fine jewelry online should be transparent and honest.
My approach: transparency, not marketing
I started Gold Shield with a simple idea: that buying fine jewelry online should be honest. That's why we work with guaranteed karat and direct workshop pricing —quoted by gram, gem and labor, with no middlemen— and a 3D designprocess where the client approves the render before we craft the piece.
Today we ship across Mexico and to the United States (Gold Shield LLC), and I help every client —from an engagement ring to a loose gemstone— choose what truly fits them, with real data on gold, gems and jewelry care.
Honesty first
I'm clear about what matters: gold plating is a layer, not solid gold; the metaphysical properties of gems are beliefs, not facts; andprices for custom pieces are quoted as a range because they depend on the day's gold, gem and labor. I'd rather lose a sale than promise something untrue.
