The people behind BAUNAT
Despite the mystic and fascinating aspect of diamonds, the international diamond and jewellery industry has few secrets for Stefaan Mouradian and Steven Boelens, the founders & driving forces behind the BAUNAT Group.
Both of them hold an outstanding expertise in this matter, strengthened by an accumulated and transferred knowledge of generations, and work together with a dedicated team of employees, suppliers & business partners.
They founded BAUNAT in 2008 with the goal of facilitating the trade of high quality diamond jewellery for the client and to make diamond jewellery accessible to everyone by offering them at the best possible price.
