Diamond jewelry suppliers fuse local, contemporary details
Floral and love knot themes are handmade through meenakari enamel and jadau engraving.
Manufacturers of diamond jewelry in India are combining traditional crafting methods with modern aesthetics in the latest models.
Floral, celestial and love knot motifs are created by mixing diamonds with other precious stones, including emeralds, rubies, sapphire and pearls. Jadau engraving, kundan setting, meenakari enamel, and flat polki gems are employed for a unique look. In addition, suppliers are releasing solitaire pendants and rings with a square-cut stone.
In terms of metal choice, white varieties such as platinum are popular. Rose gold is also gaining favor. The surfaces have a buffed or sandblasted texture.
Companies offer all types of jewelry, including earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and pendants. These may be offered individually or in sets.
The least expensive option for the foundation is yellow gold. Versions of 18 or 22K purity are utilized. White and rose variants are costlier. Platinum is employed in the high end.
Manual sand casting is the preferred shaping process because it brings quick results, easy duplication and lower outlay compared with methods supported by machines.
The majority of diamonds are 0.05 to 5ct each. Clarity is rated IF for no inclusions, VVS1 and 2 for minute, VS1 and 2 for minor, SI1 and 2 for noticeable, and I for obvious. The hue is measured on a scale of D to Z, with the former denoting whiteness. Colorless stones fetch higher quotes.
Channel settings are the most commonly adopted, followed by prong. Several makers are beginning to use invisible settings, but widespread application is hampered by high costs.
Prices start at $100 and can exceed $2,000 depending on the metal used for the base, the weight, cut, clarity and color of the diamonds, and other trimmings. Workmanship is another factor.
Rings and earrings going for $100 to $400 utilize 0.05 to 0.1ct, SI1 or 2 diamonds and 18K yellow gold.
Designs reaching $2,000 adopt 18 or 22K yellow or white gold for their foundations, and rhodium plating. These earrings, rings, bracelets and bangles are set with 0.1 to 1ct, VS1 or 2 stones.
Selections in the upper end of the price spectrum boast diamonds of at least 1ct and with VVS1 or 2 clarity. Necklace sets, bracelets and bangles in platinum or gold fall within this bracket.
Jewelry makers in India obtain about 80 percent of their diamond requirement from cutters and polishers in Surat, Rajkot, Ahmedabad, Naseri, Mumbai and Delhi.
