Diamond World

All eyes on Dua Lipa as she brings bridal sparkle to her wedding festivities in Sicily ✨ From dazzling diamonds to effortlessly chic glamour, every look is a lesson in modern bridal elegance.

A laboratory can make a diamond.

But can it make history?

For decades, the natural diamond industry has focused on rarity, grading and certification. But Nicolas Chrétien believes the real advantage of natural diamonds lies somewhere deeper: their stories.

The newly launched World Diamond Heritage List aims to identify the 100 diamonds that have shaped human history — reminding the world that some diamonds are more than gemstones; they are cultural symbols.

This week in jewellery: MARLI opens on Madison Avenue, Jessica Alba joins Gabriel & Co., London Jewelers and Grandview Klein Diamonds launch a Centennial Diamond Project, and GIA strengthens diamond traceability with a stake in Tracr.

Russia has introduced new labelling requirements for synthetic stones set in jewellery, requiring clearer disclosure and restricting the use of several terms traditionally associated with natural gemstones.

The move forms part of Resolution No. 657 and is designed to strengthen consumer transparency and reduce confusion in the marketplace.

But beyond the regulation itself lies a much larger industry conversation:

How should synthetic stones be described, marketed and disclosed to consumers?

As markets around the world continue to refine disclosure standards, the debate around terminology, transparency and consumer understanding is far from over.

💬 Should lab-grown diamonds continue to be marketed using the word “diamond”?

Turquoise isn’t a new gemstone.

But it is entering a new phase.

Long associated with heritage jewellery and artisanal craftsmanship, turquoise is increasingly appearing across fashion-led luxury, couture styling, and colour-rich jewellery collections.

What makes it interesting isn’t rarity.

It’s recognisability.

Its colour, natural matrix patterns, and unmistakable identity make it one of the few gemstones consumers can instantly recognise across a room.

As luxury continues shifting toward design, storytelling, and individuality, turquoise is quietly becoming a gemstone worth watching.

The bigger question is:

Is turquoise simply having a moment?

Or is it building long-term relevance again?
