The name change aligns with the brand’s commitment to its “Origins strategy,” emphasizing its exclusive access to natural diamonds at their source, while unveiling a new campaign starring Adwoa Aboah.
De Beers Jewellers has unveiled a significant rebranding, changing its name to De Beers London to strengthen its identity within the high-end luxury market. This strategic move aims to associate the brand with London’s global reputation as a fashion and luxury hub. As part of its “Origins strategy,” De Beers London plans to enhance its presence by leveraging its unique position as the only luxury jeweller with direct access to natural diamonds at their source.
The rebranding also introduces the 2025 brand campaign, “Portraits of True Brilliance,” which showcases the brand’s iconic Talisman and Enchanted Lotus collections. The campaign is headlined by British supermodel Adwoa Aboah, emphasizing the brand’s sophisticated yet modern image.

Richemont and Signet Jewelers Could Join Global Diamond Consortium In Bid For De Beers
Richemont, Signet Would Connect The Consortium To Key Global Growth Vectors Spanning Luxury High Jewelry and Mass-Market Retail.
The Global Diamond Consortium (GDC)
Richemont and Signet Jewelers are reported to be in talks about joining the Global Diamond Consortium (GDC), the preferred bidder for De Beers according to a Bloomberg News report.
GDC was selected in July 2026 as one of Anglo American’s preferred bidders for De Beers as part of Anglo American’s ongoing corporate restructuring.
The potential inclusion of Richemont—owner of luxury Maisons including Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels—and Signet Jewelers—the world’s largest retailer of diamond jewelry, operating brands such as Kay Jewelers, Zales, and Jared—would connect the consortium to key global growth vectors spanning luxury high jewelry and mass-market retail.
Strengthening the Natural Diamond Ecosystem: Participation by major luxury brands and global retail leaders reinforces commitment across the entire value chain—from responsible mining and manufacturing to consumer engagement.
Balanced Governance Structure: Discussions center on potential minority equity positions that would support long-term category growth while maintaining appropriate separation between ownership and commercial strategy.
Broad Stakeholder Participation: The consortium continues to advance talks with host governments, including discussions with the Government of Botswana regarding a potential increase in its equity share in De Beers from 15% to approximately 25%, alongside participation from private investors and southern African host nations.
Discussions between GDC, Richemont, Signet, and participating government stakeholders remain ongoing. Terms of any potential participation, including the size of equity interests, have not been finalized and remain subject to regulatory approvals and definitive documentation.
