Zoya, the luxury jewellery atelier from the House of Tata, unveils a new  expression of its beloved Aeterna collection—an iconic interpretation of elevated  essentials where sacred geometry meets feminine energy in sculptural form and  colour. This refined expression introduces sculptural hoop earrings, layered  medallions, and iconic rings—architectural in silhouette, yet ethereal in presence.  Crafted with see-through construction echoing sacred patterns, each piece invites a  sense of stillness and luminosity.

Inspired by the Flower of Life—a talisman of universal interconnectedness—Aeterna  interprets geometric patterns as symbols of life. Initially envisioned in Purple Amethyst,  representing feminine energy, Aeterna now evolves with the introduction of Green  Amethyst, a gemstone symbolising renewal — creating a dual-toned narrative. 

In the life of the Zoya muse, Aeterna reflects infinite possibilities that unfold within her.  These pieces transcend trends, offering both elegance and intention for the modern  woman. Each piece of jewellery becomes not just an ornament, but a spiritual  companion, awakening her spirit beyond time and making her feel more alive than ever.

This evolution of Aeterna doesn’t extend its purpose — it deepens it. These gemstones  carry more than colour — they embody meaning for the woman whose life unfolds like a  pilgrimage of spirit. Crafted for the modern seeker, this collection accompanies her  from introspective mornings to luminous evenings, weaving seamlessly into the rhythm  of her day. These are not just jewels, but meditations in form — a quiet language of  presence and poetry. 

“Aeterna has always held a cherished place in the Zoya universe — its resonance with  women is both profound and deeply personal,” shares Amanpreet Ahluwalia, Business  head of Zoya-House of Tata. “With this new expression, we’ve added depth and  meaning, while also expanding the collection into more elevated and expressive  categories — pieces that are beautifully designed to be worn every day. More women  are embracing Aeterna, making it their own, and finding a personal connection in its  evolving spirit.

Reimagining Aeterna, the beloved collection inspired by sacred geometry, this refined  edition features rare, unique cuts of Green and Purple Amethyst sculpted into myriad  patterns of rose gold. These carefully crafted elements become wearable symbols of 

energy, balance, and transcendence. While Purple Amethyst continues to anchor her  feminine essence, Green Amethyst evokes a soft awakening within.

“Reimagining Aeterna was a deeply thoughtful process,” says Revathi Kant, Chief  Design Officer, Titan Company Limited. “We sought to honour the soul of the original  collection while unveiling it through a more contemporary lens—introducing sculptural  silhouettes and intricate, geometric detailing. With the addition of Green Amethyst—a  gemstone that embodies infinite possibility—we infused the collection with a renewed  sense of lightness and luminosity.”

With Zoya’s unmistakable artistry, every creation becomes a modern talisman — a  wearable embodiment of intention and design mastery. Zoya’s new expression of  Aeterna claims its place in the world of modern luxury — where timeless design  becomes a language of inner beauty, and jewellery is an intimate extension of self— formidable, feminine and infinite.

The collection is now available across Zoya ateliers — an eternal ode to presence,  purpose, and poetic design.

The International Gemological Institute (IGI) reported robust financial results for the first quarter, driven by increased demand for certification of both lab-grown and natural diamonds.

Growth was seen across all certification segments. Loose natural-diamond certification rose 1% year-on-year, accounting for 16% of IGI’s operations. Certification of loose lab-grown diamonds grew 9%, making up the majority of the business at 54%. Grading of natural-diamond jewelry surged 21%, while lab-grown jewelry grading recorded an impressive 87% increase. These segments now represent 21% and 7% of the company’s business, respectively.

Net profit climbed 12% year-on-year to INR 1.41 billion ($16.5 million), and rose 24% compared to the previous quarter.

“The company has seen strong growth momentum across all its segments compared to the previous quarter as well as the first quarter of the last financial year,” said IGI CEO Tehmasp Printer. “Along with our core segments of natural-diamond certification and lab-grown diamond certification, we are also seeing strong demand for certification of natural diamond and lab-grown diamond jewelry, which will further accelerate the growth of our business.”

To support this rising demand, IGI announced plans to expand its laboratory capacity and invest in technology aimed at increasing operational efficiency and reducing turnaround time for services.
