6th Edition of GEMGENรˆVE Jewellery Exhibition Will Feature Emerging Talents & New Designers

By on • ( 4 Comments )

Hosted by Nadรจge Totah, the 6th Edition of GemGenรจve is proud to welcome new talented jewellery designers who will have the opportunity to exhibit their shining creations in a dedicated space. Their jewellery art offer a fascinating glimpse into a very different universe of ideas and inspirations, a world of innovation and ingenuity that highlights each creatorโ€™s individuality. With very different styles and techniques, each designer draws inspiration from the mysteries of nature in order, as they explain, to create collections imbued with the powerful symbolism that has always been an essential element of jewels. All of these designs share a common focus: the meaning, message and role of the jewel, far beyond the purely ornamental, giving them a value that exceeds their intrinsic worth. Above all, the gemstone is and has always been a talisman to protect and invoke goodwill; a talisman to keep close to us at all times, reminding us to live in a harmony of body, heart and soul.

Until now assessing rough diamonds was an inaccurate subjective process, at best. This, alongย  with the difficulty in providing unique identification means, reduced their attractiveness as collateral.ย  The DDFF and Sarine’s groundbreaking cooperation utilizes Sarineโ€™s various proven industry leading technologies, including the Galaxyยฎ and DiaExpertยฎ platforms along with the Advisorยฎ andย  related software processes, to accurately, objectively and rapidly evaluate rough diamonds, as wellย  as uniquely tagging them, with the result being the ability to reliably ascertain the optimally producedย  polished diamonds’ potential value, and hence confidently provide financing. The DDFF will applyย  Sarineโ€™s technologies to evaluate if the rough diamond is eligible for the requested financing, andย  at what level.ย

The styles represented in the 2022 Designer Vivarium, as always, are all very different from each other, showing the breadth, depth and versatility of expression in todayโ€™s world of contemporary jewellery.
