AVR Swarna Mahal Unveils D•REN — A New Era of High Jewellery Begins
The centre will feature cutting-edge advancements in jewellery manufacturing technology
The House of AVR Swarna Mahal Jewellers, a name synonymous with legacy and craftsmanship for over 97 years, proudly announces the launch of its revolutionary new high jewellery brand — D•REN. This marks a bold step forward in India’s luxury jewellery landscape, combining heritage, innovation, and contemporary elegance.
D•REN (pronounced “D-Ren”), with its philosophy of High Jewellery Reimagined, is designed for the discerning connoisseur. The inaugural flagship boutique, a lavish 2,500 sq. ft. space located on the 4th floor of AVR Swarna Mahal Jewellers, Anna Nagar, Chennai, opens to the public on June 1st, 2025. With plans underway to expand across Tier 1 cities in India and globally, D•REN is set to redefine the fine jewellery experience.
A Brand Born from Legacy, Elevated by Design
D•REN stands as a distinct identity within the AVR Swarna Mahal Group — combining the group’s hallmark craftsmanship with cutting-edge design, rare gemstones, and contemporary storytelling. The brand’s signature is drawn from the symbolism of the lotus — timeless, graceful, and powerfully feminine.
From bold statement pieces to delicately refined silhouettes, D•REN’s collections are a fusion of luxury, vintage flair, and architectural elegance. Each creation embodies exceptional craftsmanship, blending ancient techniques with modern technology to present high jewellery in a never-seen- before narrative.
An Experience in ‘Silent Luxury’
D•REN isn’t just jewellery — it is a curated experience. The boutique’s interiors are styled in muted opulence, with tones of vintage gold, ivory blush, and sage green echoing the brand’s visual identity. With a focus on by-invite-only unveilings and bespoke client interactions, D•REN celebrates silent luxury — understated, intentional, unforgettable.

Rashmika Mandanna Brings Festive Glamour To Swarovski’s Diwali Celebration In Mumbai
Swarovski Brand Ambassador Dazzles In A Bespoke Amit Aggarwal Creation Adorned With Crystals, Celebrating Contemporary Couture, Individuality and Festive Brilliance.
Swarovski brought its signature crystal artistry to its Diwali celebrations in Mumbai, with brand ambassador Rashmika Mandanna taking centre stage in a couture ensemble by designer Amit Aggarwal. Held at The St. Regis, Mumbai, the event showcased the brand’s festive jewellery collections through a blend of fashion, craftsmanship and Indian cultural influences.
Mandanna’s outfit was a highlight of the evening. Her bespoke Cosmos Blue ensemble, featuring a sculptural corset embellished with metallic blue and Jet Hematite Swarovski crystals, reflected the meeting of innovative design and intricate craftsmanship. The creation required more than 1,200 man-hours to complete. She paired the outfit with jewellery from Swarovski’s Hyperbola and Matrix collections, including necklaces, rings, a bracelet and ear cuffs.
The event also offered a closer look at Swarovski’s festive product portfolio. The Diwali edit featured designs from Constella, Hyperbola, Mesmera and Imber, alongside pieces from the established Millenia range. Spanning jewellery, accessories and home accents, the collection highlighted the brand’s use of crystal detailing across different lifestyle categories.
Connecting the showcase with local festive traditions, Swarovski presented a crystal-inspired rangoli featuring vibrant colours and intricate patterns. The installation offered a contemporary interpretation of a traditional Indian decorative art form, bringing together cultural symbolism and the brand’s distinctive visual identity.
The celebration forms part of Swarovski’s “Festive Glam: Celebrate the Light” campaign, which encourages consumers to explore personal style through expressive jewellery and festive accessories. With its combination of couture, crystal embellishment and traditional Indian motifs, the showcase positioned the brand’s Diwali offering around individual expression and contemporary festive dressing.
