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.
