De Beers Group has officially launched Origin, a pioneering initiative that brings blockchain technology to the heart of the natural diamond trade, offering consumers an unprecedented level of traceability, authenticity, and ethical assurance.

Each diamond in the Origin collection is individually verified and traceable, allowing customers to follow its journey from deep earth formation to expert craftsmanship and final retail presentation. The initiative is powered by tamper-proof blockchain technology, ensuring a secure and transparent record of each diamond’s provenance.

“As a brand, we understand that modern consumers value not just beauty, but also trust and purpose,” said De Beers during the launch. “Origin is our vision for a diamond industry that is transparent, ethical, and built on authenticity.”

The Origin platform not only affirms the diamond’s natural origin but also highlights its social and environmental impact—detailing the positive contributions made in the local communities where the stones are mined.

A Retailer-Ready Revolution

For retail partners, Origin offers more than just ethically sourced brilliance. It comes bundled with:

  • Experiential merchandising solutions
  • Custom marketing assets
  • Retail staff training tools

These assets are designed to connect with today’s values-driven consumers, who seek deeper meaning and verified ethical sourcing in luxury purchases.

Origin also integrates seamlessly into retailers’ loose diamond portfolios, offering flexibility alongside elevated consumer confidence in the integrity and ethical story behind every stone.

The launch aligns with De Beers’ broader mission to lead the natural diamond industry toward a more responsible, transparent, and future-ready standard—where luxury is inseparable from accountability.

At the glamorous lead-up to the Australian Grand Prix, Hannah St John, partner of Liam Lawson, made a striking statement at the Glamour on the Grid event with a one-of-a-kind diamond necklace that seamlessly blended motorsport and haute jewellery.

Titled “La Velocit” (The Speed), the necklace was crafted by Australian atelier Martin Rogers Jewellery. The extraordinary piece features approximately 1,800 diamonds totalling 25 carats, intricately arranged to trace the outlines of iconic Formula 1 circuits from the global racing calendar.

A true testament to craftsmanship, the necklace required an estimated 250–300 hours of meticulous handwork, including weeks dedicated solely to precision diamond setting. Valued at around AUD $500,000 (approximately $350,000 USD), the piece stands as a bold fusion of speed, design, and luxury artistry.

Blurring the lines between engineering inspiration and fine jewellery, “La Velocità” captured attention across the paddock, proving that Formula 1’s influence extends far beyond the track.
