Refined Protection: Zen Diamond Presents the Reimagined Evil Eye
Crafted in 9kt White Gold, Zen Diamond’s Contemporary Evil Eye Collection Blends Protection with Poised, Everyday Luxury
The Evil Eye has always been a symbol of protection, but at Zen Diamond, it takes on a refined new identity. Crafted in 9kt white gold, marking a new chapter for the brand, the collection introduces a lighter, sleeker approach to luxury that feels effortless yet intentional. Reimagined for modern wardrobes, the Evil Eye Collection moves beyond charm jewellery and familiar clichés, introducing an interpretation designed for expression and poise. This is not a token you tuck away for sentiment, it’s a statement you choose to wear.
Evil Eye Earrings (Circular Motif)
These earrings reinterpret the traditional protective symbol through soft curves and clean geometry. A circular contour gently frames the evil eye, outlined with a halo of diamonds that bring subtle elegance to the overall silhouette. The overall effect is balanced and understated, playful in meaning, polished in execution, and easy to imagine as an everyday signature.
Evil Eye Hoop Earrings
Sculpted in 9kt white gold, these hoop earrings offer a fresh, playful take on the evil eye. Sky-blue topaz, enamel detailing, and softly set diamonds come together in a way that feels light and expressive rather than formal. Balanced and contemporary, the hoops sit comfortably between statement and subtlety, designed for effortless, everyday wear with a sense of intention.
Evil Eye Necklace with Chain Drops
This design stands out for its sense of movement. Diamond-set elements lead into fine chain drops that shift naturally as the necklace is worn, giving the piece a fluid, architectural quality. While the evil eye remains the focal point, the defining feature is the necklace’s movement and the way it responds to light. Together, these elements create a design of poetic elegance that feels both powerful and feminine.
Teardrop Evil Eye Necklace
This necklace reworks the traditional evil eye through a softer, more fluid lens. Instead of rigid lines, the motif appears almost in motion, with a teardrop form that feels gently melted rather than fixed. Diamonds trace the curve of the design, while enamel detailing adds contrast and depth without overpowering the form. Suspended from a fine chain with scattered accents, the piece is an interpretation of protection that’s thoughtful and modern.

The Great Indian Diamonds: A Closer Look At India’s Most Iconic Diamonds
De Beers Highlights India’s Historic Role In Shaping The Global Diamond Legacy Through A Curated Archive Of Iconic Gems
De Beers’ A Diamond is Forever marks Diamond Month with the release of “The Great Indian Diamond Archive”, a deep dive into 12 of the world’s legendary diamonds, all of which trace their origins back to India.
For centuries, diamonds have drawn attention for their brilliance and rarity, often associated with wealth, power, and prestige. What is less widely known, however, is that the story of diamonds began in India. Some of the most famous diamonds in the world, including the Koh-i-Noor, trace their origins back to the country.
At a time when much of the world was unfamiliar with diamonds, India had already established itself as a centre for diamond mining. The Golconda region was one of the earliest and most significant sources, producing several historic gems. Many of these diamonds were found along the Krishna River and eventually travelled across continents through trade, becoming part of royal treasuries.
Historical records suggest that diamond mining in India dates back to the 4th century BCE, making it one of the oldest known traditions in the world. Over time, these diamonds became associated with different rulers, empires, and geographies, each adding a new layer to their identity.
Diamonds such as the Koh-i-Noor, Hope Diamond, Regent, and Daria-i-Noor continue to be among the most talked about and valuable gems globally. Today, some are housed in museums, while others remain part of private or royal collections. Several of these diamonds have also been re-cut over time, changing both their appearance and identity.
Bringing these stories together, The Great Indian Diamond Index presents 12 of the most prominent diamonds associated with India. Developed as part of De Beers’ initiative, the index brings them into one place for the first time.
Rather than looking at these diamonds only as precious objects, the index traces their full journey—from their natural origins to their historical and cultural significance. It combines physical attributes with context to offer a more complete view of their legacy.
The list has been compiled using a structured research framework developed specifically as The Great Indian Diamond Index.
