Manaal Fine Jewellery Unveils the Enchanting “Empress of the Reef” Collection in New Delhi
Aadhya Aggarwal’s Latest High-Art Collection Draws Inspiration from Nature’s Beauty, Fusing Elegance with Intricate Craftsmanship
Manaal Fine Jewellery, the luxury brand based in New Delhi and led by designer Aadhya Aggarwal, has launched its stunning new high-art collection, “Empress of the Reef.” Inspired by the interplay of light and shadow found in nature, the collection captures the serene intensity of coral reefs and the dramatic textures of landscapes like Arizona’s Wave formation.
The “Empress of the Reef” collection is a masterful fusion of contrast and elegance, featuring a rich color palette ranging from fiery oranges to deep blacks. Crafted using Japanese and Italian corals, black onyx, cultured pearls, black enamel, and a mix of full-cut and rose-cut diamonds, each piece reflects depth, movement, and visual poetry. Drawing on influences from coral structures, avian motion, and traditional Japanese motifs, the collection balances cultural richness with artistic precision.

“This collection is not just jewellery; it’s a meditative journey through nature’s mysteries—reefs, shadows, wings,” said Aadhya Aggarwal, Creative Director and Founder of Manaal Fine Jewellery. “It’s for those who see jewellery as an extension of their identity, blending serenity with strength and heritage with vision.”
Available exclusively at Manaal Fine Jewellery’s flagship boutique in Sunder Nagar Market, the “Empress of the Reef” collection continues the brand’s legacy of exceptional craftsmanship and cultural storytelling.

BlueStone-backed Ethera launches ‘Akshaya Tritiya Edit,’ designed for Life Beyond The Festival
The Sanskrit meaning of Akshaya Tritiya, the two words, holds a lot of importance. “Akshaya” means “Eternal”, and the term “Tritiya” signifies the third day of the illuminated half of the Vaishakha month.
BlueStone-backed Ethera, the lab-grown diamond jewellery brand, is marking this Akshaya Tritiya with a fresh perspective on festive buying, shifting the focus from one-day purchases to jewellery designed for everyday life. With its “Akshaya Tritiya Edit,” rooted in Ethera’s modern design language, the collection brings together pieces that are minimal yet expressive, meant to be worn across different occasions.
Ethera is working to shift the festive buying narrative in India, traditionally driven by ritual, where many consumers opt for gold coins as symbolic purchases, valued for investment but rarely worn. The brand positions jewellery as a more practical alternative, combining long-term value with everyday usability.
As consumer preferences evolve, Ethera has noticed a shift toward pieces that integrate into daily life. Rather than remaining stored away, jewellery is increasingly chosen for wearability and versatility. In this context, Ethera’s lightweight designs and lab-grown diamonds offer the same visual appeal as natural diamonds in formats suited to regular use, supporting the brand’s philosophy of “wear what you love every day.”
Spanning rings, earrings, pendants, and wristwear, the Akshaya Tritiya Edit features clean silhouettes, refined forms, and lightweight designs crafted for everyday styling. From solitaires to contemporary clusters, each piece can be layered, revisited, and lived in beyond a single occasion.
Commenting on the initiative, Nitesh Jain, Co-founder, Ethera, said,“India’s jewellery sales crossed Rs. 12,000 crore during Akshaya Tritiya last year. Which is amazing, but what interests us is what happens after, the life a piece goes on to have. Does it stay locked away, or does it become part of your everyday? At Ethera, we design with that second life in mind. Jewellery should feel effortless to wear, because the real value of what you buy isn’t defined by the day you bought it, but by how often you choose to wear it after.”
Observed as one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu and Jain calendars, Akshaya Tritiya will be marked on Sunday, April 19, this year. The day is believed to bring enduring prosperity and good fortune, making it an ideal time for new beginnings and meaningful investments. Among its many traditions, buying jewellery, especially gold, continues to hold deep cultural significance as a symbol of wealth and security.
Building on this mindset, Ethera encourages consumers to explore fine jewellery that balances design with practicality. With lab-grown diamond pieces across accessible price points, including 9KT gold options, the brand makes it easier to choose jewellery that fits lifestyle and budget.
Adding a layer of personal expression, the collection offers customisation across gold purities, 9KT, 14KT, and 18KT, and finishes ranging from classic yellow to rose and subtle white gold. The result is jewellery that adapts to your mood, your style, and the many versions of you.
For the festive period, Ethera is offering up to 50% off on making charges and 20% off on diamonds, making it easier for customers to invest in pieces that hold value beyond the occasion.

As Ethera continues to strengthen its presence in everyday fine jewellery, this Akshaya Tritiya underlines its intent: jewellery isn’t for a day, it’s meant to be lived in, every day.
