Emerald is the fitting birthstone of May, the month when green shoots burst forth and fields turn green. Coinciding with this highpoint of spring is a new partnership between Gemfields and PureJewels, a fine jewellery label dedicated to quality, craftsmanship and heritage, with roots in India and Africa. The PureJewels x Gemfields Zariya collection puts emeralds from Gemfields’ Kagem mine in Zambia front and centre in designs inspired by the fresh buds of May. PureJewels was founded in 1950 in Nairobi by Indian-born Bhanji Gokaldas, who followed in the footsteps of his forefathers — master goldsmiths and metallurgists — into the world of jewellery. Today, the brand is run from an atelier in London, where it remains faithful to its cultural heritage and to preserving traditional techniques and artisanal excellence: honouring the past while embracing the future – in other words, celebrating journeys.

As we mark 75 years, PureJewels remains dedicated to preserving heritage crafts. Partnering with Gemfields for this milestone allows us to reinforce our commitment to a responsible supply chain and to showcase the real impact of responsible sourcing – a value deeply embedded in our brand,” says Jayant Raniga, CEO and third generation of PureJewels, speaking of the collaboration. Gemfields is a world-leading responsible miner and marketer of coloured gemstones, always striving to work with transparency, legitimacy and integrity and adhering to the principle that gems should bring tangible benefit back to their countries and communities of origin.

“ The Kagem mine – majority owned and operated by Gemfields in partnership with the government of Zambia – has been the source of some of the world’s most exceptional emeralds, while its profits have positively impacted health, education and livelihoods projects in the local area. Each piece from PureJewels carries a story, and those in the Zariya collection are no exception. Taking its name from the Hindi word “Zariya”, meaning a medium, source, or pathway, the collection was inspired by the concept of introspection and designed to usher the wearer into a space of reflection, alignment and balance. The designs are handcrafted in London using traditional techniques such as wire-drawing, forging and stressing gold, using the brand’s signature 22k Sunrise Gold, whose regal golden glow pairs perfectly with the majestic green of Zambian emeralds.

“Thought to symbolise hope, growth and the natural world, emeralds couldn’t be more appropriate for a collection dedicated to introspection and balance. The calming green hue of Zambian emeralds sings in PureJewels’ clever settings, flowing light through the gemstone facets so that they dance when worn.

The PureJewels x Gemfields Zariya collection lends itself equally to stacking for a modern look, or a single, elegant statement with a pleasing pop of green,” says Emily Dungey, Gemfields’ Marketing and Communications Director. Highlights from the Zariya collection include a Shooting Star Emerald Cuff and Dropper Earrings with a twisted design exuding timeless charm. There is also an elegant Solo Emerald Pendant and Horizon Emerald Necklace with an intricate twist-wire design, and two show-stopping rings.

“Each PureJewels creation is a testament to tradition and innovation. Whether it is a cherished heirloom passed through generations or a new piece that marks a personal milestone, we craft with purpose – to honour history, elevate artistry, and celebrate the journey of every wearer,” says Raniga.

Senco Gold & Diamonds Unveils Bangle Utsav 2026 This Akshaya Tritiya

A Contemporary Ode to Individuality and Movement, the Campaign Reimagines Bangles as Symbols of Identity, Intention, and Everyday Expression

This Akshaya Tritiya, Senco Gold & Diamonds unveils Bangle Utsav 2026, a campaign that reframes one of India’s most timeless jewellery traditions through the lens of a generation that lives life on its own terms. At its heart lies a resonant idea: Senco’s Bangle Utsav is a celebration of the modern Indian youth’s spirit, unapologetically alive, always in motion, and deeply expressive. Inspired by the thought meri zindagi mere haathon mein, the campaign honours the quiet power of hands: hands that think, build, question, create and move with intention.

In the campaign film, the story unfolds entirely through these gestures, of a young woman whose hands overanalyse and outgrow, and a young man whose hands chase ambition and mark its hard-won victories. Their stories belong to millions, yet their expression is uniquely their own. Bangle Utsav gives those hands the chance to shine as they deserve.

The relationship between hands and jewellery has always been intimate; one frames the other. Hands are our first storytellers; jewellery becomes the punctuation. Bangles catch light when thoughts shift, kadas absorb the warmth of daily victories, bracelets echo the rhythm of movement. In a world led by touch, swipe, gesture and creation, jewellery on the wrist becomes both witness and signature. Bangle Utsav celebrates this poetry: where motion meets meaning, where style meets intention.

Crafted for this spirit of motion, the Bangle Utsav Collection 2026 brings together over 500 designs in gold, diamond and platinum, each one an heirloom-in-the-making. The pieces carry the poetry of karigari from master artisans across India, yet sit effortlessly in contemporary wardrobes: delicate diamond lattices, sculptural platinum curves, and bold men’s kadas and wristlets from Senco’s Aham line that speak to a new, confident aesthetic. Designed for both festive beginnings and everyday assertion, the collection invites women and men alike to celebrate prosperity not just as ritual, but as self-expression.

Gold and diamonds, symbols of purity, prosperity and permanence, take centre stage this Akshaya Tritiya. From luminous gold bangles that embody auspicious beginnings to diamond bracelets that shimmer with promise, the collection captures both the sanctity of tradition and the clarity of modern design.

As families across India embrace the auspicious energy of Akshaya Tritiya, a day believed to bring eternal growth, Senco marks the occasion with special offers that elevate the joy of purchasing gold and diamonds. Customers can enjoy up to 20% off on diamond value, up to 75% off on making charges, up to Rs. 10,000 off per 10g on gold rate, along with 0% deduction on old gold exchange. Thoughtfully curated for the season, these offers make stepping into the festival of abundance even more meaningful.

Jewellery becomes truly powerful when it reflects the life it moves with,” says Joita Sen, Head of Marketing and Design, Senco Gold & Diamonds.

“With Bangle Utsav, our inspiration began with the vocabulary of the hand itself, its elegance, its movement, its quiet conviction. We wanted to create gold and diamond pieces that echo this rhythm: fluid bangles, sculptural kadas and minimalist bracelets that honour tradition yet feel unmistakably modern. Every curve, every lattice, every shimmer is designed to move with the wearer. This Akshaya Tritiya felt like the perfect time to celebrate that spirit of prosperity shaped by intention, beauty worn with purpose, and a life confidently held in one’s own hands.”

Set against a pan-India backdrop with a strong focus on West Bengal and key northern and eastern markets, the campaign connects emotion, craftsmanship and contemporary identity in a singular visual voice. The Bangle Utsav Collection 2026 is now available across all Senco Gold & Diamonds showrooms nationwide and online at sencogoldanddiamonds.com, inviting India to celebrate new beginnings with beauty, meaning and the quiet, expressive power held in one’s own hands.
