Russia maintained its lead in global rough diamond production value for the third year in a row in 2025, recovering 31.5 million carats valued at $2.72 billion (averaging $86 per carat).

Meanwhile, production in Botswana fell due to operational shutdowns at the Jwaneng and Orapa mines, resulting in 15.5 million carats worth $1.98 billion, though it achieved a higher average price of $128 per carat.

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.
