We have most of our Indian jewelry made in Rajasthan, a region in northwest India. This region is extremely touristic because it is the country of the Maharajas, palaces and monuments with fabulous architectures. Local artisans have always known how to create jewelry of incredible finesse.

India, diamonds and semi-precious stones

India is the leader in diamond cutting. In fact, out of 12 diamond jewelry pieces, 11 are cut and polished in India.

In the 13th century, India was the world's only supplier of diamonds. It was from this first mine that the largest diamond of the time, the Koh-I-Noor, came, which was given to Queen Victoria of England as a gift by the last Maharaja of the Sikh Empire.

Today, the gems and jewellery sector is one of the mainstays of the Indian economy, contributing around 7% to the GDP and employing over 5 million people.
