Global Diamond  Markets and Overall Prices Remain Steady

Steady Prices Mask A Polarizing Market Where Specific Large Shapes Win and Poorly Cut Diamonds Stagnate.

Published

The natural diamond and high-end jewelry sectors are experiencing a period of selective resilience. While macro-market prices remain steady, structural shifts in consumer preference, inventory drawdowns, and geographic demand variations are creating distinct “winners and losers” across diamond cuts, sizes, and geographies.

  • Macro Overview: Global markets and overall prices remain steady. Dossier prices continue to recover—particularly in the 0.30 ct. round collection goods—following a significant inventory drop.
  • B2B Buyer Behavior: Demand remains patchy. Wholesale buyers are strictly purchasing to fulfill specific, pre-existing orders rather than buying for inventory.
  • Category Winners: Sales are heavily concentrated in 2-carat and larger diamonds. While rounds are stable, long fancy shapes (Ovals, Marquises, Emeralds) are outperforming rounds in the 2 ct.+ category. High-quality Marquises, long Radiants, and long Cushions are in short supply.
  • Shape Premiums & Trends: > * Marquise is currently the most expensive fancy shape.
    • Long Cushions are highly liquid, trading at a 20% to 25% premium over square cushions.
    • Antique cuts/styles and well-proportioned, elongated Ovals (D–I color, VS–SI clarity) see robust demand, especially in the US.
    • Illiquidity Risk: Poorly proportioned fancy shapes remain entirely illiquid.

This Raksha Bandhan, Akoirah by Augmont brings a contemporary expression to one of India’s most cherished celebrations with its new collection of laboratory-grown diamond rakhis, combining traditional symbolism with modern jewellery design. Created for the evolving Indian consumer who seeks meaningful and distinctive festive gifting, the collection transforms the traditional rakhi into a keepsake that goes beyond the occasion with customisable designs available in options such as initials, zodiac signs, and other personalised motifs tailored to individual style and preference.

The collection features an assortment of handcrafted designs incorporating meaningful motifs such as the evil eye, Swastika and Ik Onkar, alongside personalised initial-led designs. Each motif brings its own symbolism, representing protection, prosperity, faith and personal connection while laboratory-grown diamonds add a refined, contemporary touch to the traditional expression of siblinghood.

Designed across earthy and versatile colour palettes, the rakhis pair beaded elements in shades of black, brown and blue with diamond-studded motifs. From the understated elegance of a diamond initial rakhi to statement-making designs featuring the evil eye and spiritual symbols, the collection offers options that cater to different personalities and styles.

With this collection, Akoirah by Augmont seeks to elevate festive gifting by bringing fine jewellery sensibilities into a traditionally rooted celebration. The rakhis are designed not merely as festive accessories, but as meaningful pieces that can be cherished beyond Raksha Bandhan, reflecting the brand’s approach to making jewellery more personal, contemporary and relevant to everyday occasions.
