GJEPCs  Gem & Jewellery Buyer-Seller Meet 2025 commenced with an air of optimism and global camaraderie, setting the stage for fruitful partnerships and meaningful dialogue between Indian manufacturers and international buyers.

The event was inaugurated with a grand unveiling, paving the way for over 40 international buyers to engage in curated one-on-one business meetings with Indian jewellery manufacturers and exporters. The venue buzzed with activity as new connections were forged and long-standing business relationships were rekindled.

Among the notable international buyers. Lisi Fracchia from Spain, visiting India for the first time, expressed her delight at the overwhelming business prospects. Her experience at the BSM not only introduced her to new business avenues but also gave her the opportunity to reconnect with existing suppliers participating in the show.

Cloyette Harris Stoute, representing Alliyette, USA, is also making her maiden visit to India. Her objective of understanding India’s advanced jewellery manufacturing technology and the comprehensive supply chain process was met with great satisfaction. Deeply impressed by her interactions with exhibitors, she shared her enthusiasm about returning in the future.

On the domestic front, Hitesh Thakar, General Manager at Mohit Diamond Pvt. Ltd, reflected on the invaluable insights gained during his meetings. He noted that conversations with buyers revealed their strategic focus on brand expansion, opening up new opportunities for his company to scale their business and adapt to evolving global demand.

Priyank Shah of Walking Tree, participating as a first-time exhibitor, commended the event’s structured format. The carefully filtered buyer group enabled targeted interactions, resulting in serious inquiries from markets such as the USA, Kazakhstan, Brazil, and beyond—particularly for custom-made jewellery.

The first day concluded on a high note, with an atmosphere rich in collaboration and discovery. The meet not only reflected the strength of India’s jewellery sector but also its growing global appeal.

Aamir Khan & His Queen Gauri Spratt Seal Their Marriage With Signature Ruby Rings Crafted By QWEEN

More Than 3 Months To Source The Ruby. 256 Hours Of Meticulous Craftsmanship By 131 Pairs Of Skilled Hands. One Madagascar Ruby, Rarer Than 1 In A Million. A Wedding Ring Designed To Look, Quite Literally, Like Royalty.

For a star whose life has often unfolded under the country’s gaze, Aamir Khan’s wedding to Gauri Spratt was striking for what it chose not to be. There was no spectacle, no sprawling guest list, no grand reception designed for public consumption. Instead, the actor chose an intimate ceremony at his Bandra home, surrounded by close family and friends, and one rare jewel by QWEEN that quietly carried the emotion of the day: a natural ruby ring.

The ruby doesn’t sit on the band so much as it sits in a coronet—a raised gallery of gold rising in soft peaks around the stone, the way a crown rises around a jewel it’s built to protect. This is the ring Aamir Khan chose for his wedding to Gauri Spratt, and QWEEN built it to look like something handed down through generations, not picked off a shelf.

At its centre sits a cabochon-cut natural ruby, polished into a smooth, domed surface rather than faceted, so the stone’s deep, oxblood colour pools and shifts like something lit from within. It’s held by a scalloped gold gallery that peaks into points around the stone, echoing the shape of an actual crown, then drops into a band of fine milgrain beading, the kind of hand-finished detailing that historically marked coronation and heirloom jewellery.

Turned on its side, the ring has the unmistakable silhouette of a bombé signet—high-domed, weighty, and built to be noticed.

Sourced from Madagascar, the ruby belongs to an exceptional category of natural stones, with less than 0.1% of rubies achieving this level of quality, making the stone as exceptional as the moment it was chosen to mark.

For Bollywood’s “Mr. Perfectionist,” the choice of QWEEN felt fitting as a brand defined by 100% natural gemstones and diamonds, mine-to-market transparency, rigorous quality checks, and an uncompromising rejection discipline.

Set in a prong setting, the ring required over 256 hours of craftsmanship—from design development to setting and finishing—before being completed by QWEEN’s 131 pairs of masterful hands.

This wedding ring also completes a story that began earlier this year.

In March 2026, ahead of QWEEN’s official launch, Gauri Spratt was spotted wearing a rare aquamarine ring gifted by Aamir Khan and privately commissioned from QWEEN. The luminous ocean-blue aquamarine, sourced from Brazil, was set in gold and encircled by 40 natural diamonds. Aquamarines of that size and purity represent less than 0.3% of stones discovered globally, making the piece one of extraordinary rarity.

Aamir Khan is also a strategic investor in QWEEN, which is backed by Rosy Blue and Kashikey. But his relationship with the brand has never been limited to investment. Ahead of QWEEN’s official launch, he became the brand’s first customer when he privately commissioned the rare aquamarine ring for Gauri Spratt.

By returning to QWEEN for a gesture as intimate as her wedding ring, Aamir’s association with the brand moves beyond investment and into personal trust.

Amit Kumar, Co-founder and CEO, QWEEN said:

“At QWEEN, we believe a jewel should hold the emotion of the person it is created for.”

“This ruby ring was designed as a deeply personal piece for Gauri: rare, natural, and meaningful. To be chosen for a moment as intimate as a wedding is a very special expression of trust in the brand.”

The choice also reflects QWEEN’s larger philosophy. The brand is built on the belief that jewellery should move beyond occasion, status, and convention and become a language of self-expression.

For the modern Indian woman, jewellery is no longer only inherited, assigned, or bought for an event.

It is chosen. It is felt. It is personal.
