History

History

Shah & Shah Distinctive opened nearly a century ago during the Prohibition era. Founded in 1929, the first location at 921 F Street NW became an institution over five decades.

In 1983, spanning into its third-generation, Shah & Shah Distinctive was reimagined by the founder’s grandson, Michael Shah. Michael transitioned the business from its downtown storefront to its current speakeasy-style salon on Connecticut Avenue, overlooking K Street and the White House.

In 2013, Colin Shah took the helm of the family business, becoming the fourth-generation jeweler further evolving Shah & Shah Distinctive as a brand for modern clientele.
