Jewellery & Gem ASIA Hong Kong (JGA) is gearing up to welcome thousands of trade buyers from around the world this June, offering abundant mid-year opportunities for product discovery, sourcing and partnerships, show organiser Informa Markets Jewellery announced today. JGA is taking place from 19 to 22 June at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). Buyers may skip the long queues onsite by pre-registering online between now and 11 June.

With 1,300+ exhibitors representing 30+ countries and regions, the B2B jewellery and gemstone buying event is uniquely positioned as Asia’s premier summer meeting place for major product debuts and bold ideas, said Celine Lau, Director of Jewellery Fairs at Informa Markets Jewellery.

“The June show offers exceptional buying opportunities for wholesalers and retailers looking to fulfil urgent orders or stock up for the second half of the year – be it loose diamonds, coloured gemstones and pearls, finished jewellery, packaging, equipment & tools and industry-related technologies,” Lau shared. “More importantly, due to its strategic timing, JGA is the perfect venue for suppliers to inspire and energise the industry with their latest collections in between seasons. The show does not only keep buyers attuned to market trends but also prepares them for the world’s largest B2B fine jewellery sourcing destination in September – Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong (JGW).”

JGA will introduce three standout attractions: The groundbreaking Orient Odyssey 2.0 pearl exhibit (Stand 3M260), a dedicated Gold Jewellery Pavilion and the announcement of the Finalists for the Sustainability Awards 2025 by JWA (Jewellery World Awards).

Launched at JGW last September, Orient Odyssey 2.0 is a new iteration of the curated space celebrating the “Queen of Gems.” Exclusive to the iconic Hong Kong fair, OO 2.0 will present a wider variety of pearl exhibits and interactive elements, offering buyers the opportunity to journey into the world of pearls without ever leaving the show floor. Initiated by Informa’s Jewellery & Gem Knowledge Community, the featured showcase is supported by the biggest names in the pearl industry, led by Platinum Sponsors Autore, Jewelmer, Paspaley Pearling Company and Rio Pearl.

Another highlight is the Gold Jewellery Pavilion. This zone is a hotspot for cutting-edge trends and advancements in gold jewellery production and design, illustrating the endless possibilities achievable with this precious medium.

On the green front, Informa’s Sustainability Awards 2025 by JWA will reveal the finalists at the JGA Media Gathering set for 19 June. The winners will be officially announced in July and honoured at an Awards Presentation Ceremony during the JGW Fair Reception on 17 September at the HKCEC.

JGA will also host panel discussions and exhibitor-led sessions. Among the key events are dialogues on “The Rise of the Eco-Friendly Luxury Consumer” on 19 June and “For the Love of Pearls: A Millennial and Gen Z Affair” on 20 June.

VBJ Unveils Its Parro Collection Inspired By Nature, Crafted With Heritage

VBJ, Vummidi Bangaru Jewellers, India’s most trusted heirloom jewellery brand, proudly introduces PARRO – THE SIGNATURE PARROT COLLECTION inspired by one of nature’s most captivating creations, the parrot. Revered across cultures as a symbol of prosperity, love, intelligence and freedom, the parrot becomes the muse for a collection that transforms its vibrant personality into timeless works of wearable art.

For over 125 years, VBJ has drawn inspiration from heritage, craftsmanship and the world around us to create jewellery that transcends ornamentation. With Parro, the brand reimagines the graceful bird through intricate silhouettes, sculptural forms and refined detailing, bringing together traditional artistry and contemporary expression in a collection that feels both playful and sophisticated.

Speaking about the collection, Amarendran Vummidi, Managing Partner, VBJ, said:

“For generations, jewellery has been inspired by nature, but Parro goes beyond simply recreating its beauty. It captures the spirit of a creature that represents intelligence, companionship and joy across Indian traditions. At VBJ, every collection begins with a story, and Parro is our interpretation of how heritage can evolve into contemporary design while remaining deeply rooted in craftsmanship. These are pieces that invite conversation, emotion and individuality.”

Crafted in gold and diamonds with accents of vibrant gemstones and coloured enamel, this premium collection reflects the elegance of the parrot, its emerald plumage, fluid movement and poised presence. The collection spans statement necklaces, earrings, bracelets and rings, each designed to capture the delicate balance between nature and luxury while remaining versatile enough for modern lifestyles.

Reflecting on the collection, Jithendra Vummidi, Managing Partner, VBJ, shared:

“Every jewellery purchase is deeply personal. It marks a memory, celebrates a milestone or simply reflects an individual’s unique style. With Parro, we wanted to create a collection that offers customers something truly distinctive: pieces that are versatile and timeless. Whether it’s a statement for a celebration or an elegant everyday companion, Parro allows every wearer to embrace jewellery that feels as expressive and individual as they are.”

The collection reflects VBJ’s continued pursuit of original design, where every motif is meticulously developed at its in-house Creative Centre and brought to life through exceptional craftsmanship.

Speaking about the creative journey behind Parro, Anupam Karmakar, Creative Head at VBJ and WorldSkills Expert, said:

“The journey from the familiar ‘kili’ motif to Parro was one of our most exciting creative challenges. Our vision was not to recreate the bird as it is, but to reinterpret its grace, personality and vibrant spirit into a contemporary design language that resonates with today’s wearer. Working closely with Ahalya, our Senior Executive Designer, we explored fluid forms, refined proportions and intricate detailing to strike the perfect balance between tradition and modernity. Every curve, gemstone placement and enamel accent has been thoughtfully composed so that each piece feels expressive yet timeless.”

As a fifth-generation family-run brand, VBJ takes immense pride in its legacy as the creator of the historic Sengol (sceptre) – a sacred symbol of India’s democratic journey. Rediscovered after 72 years through meticulous research by the VBJ team, the Sengol was reinstated beside the Speaker’s chair in India’s new Parliament building, Sansad Bhavan, by Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi, marking VBJ’s enduring bond with India’s cultural and national heritage. Continuing this legacy, VBJ is now set to unveil its largest jewellery showroom on Coimbatore’s 100ft Road.

With Parro, VBJ once again demonstrates its ability to transform inspiration into exceptional jewellery, where nature, imagination and heritage come together to create designs that are as meaningful as they are beautiful.
