The Whisper of 24KT: Redefining Diamond Jewellery in India
By Akash Talesara,President sales and Business Development- SKY GOLD LTD
Light, luminous, and meticulously crafted—jewellery today speaks in subtle brilliance. It is no longer just about tradition or display; it is deeply personal, reflecting one’s identity, emotions, and a desire for effortless luxury. At Sky Gold & Diamonds, this transformation takes center stage with India’s first-ever 24KT diamond jewellery collection. By uniting the brilliance of diamonds with gold in its purest form, the brand creates pieces that feel weightless yet profoundly precious.
Purity has always been a defining part of Sky Gold’s DNA. Gold, in its 24KT form, represents perfection—an ideal that, when paired with diamonds, results in creations that are visually stunning and emotionally resonant.
Crafting the Impossible
Designing with 24KT gold presents a formidable challenge. Its softness makes diamond-setting an intricate art, demanding precision and mastery. To perfect this craft, Sky Gold collaborated with international experts, master jewellers, and metallurgical specialists from Italy and Hong Kong. Months of experimentation and countless trials led to a deep understanding of the material’s nuances. The journey required patience, science, and artistry—each attempt bringing them closer to redefining fine jewellery while honouring the natural beauty of gold.


Through this process, the brand discovered that perfection takes time. Every misstep revealed the rhythm of the metal, teaching lessons in patience and precision. Balancing purity with durability became the ultimate test—ensuring diamonds remained secure without compromising the integrity of 24KT gold required innovation and persistence. The result is jewellery that feels ethereal yet enduring, glowing with quiet confidence.
The Era of Lightweight Luxury
As gold prices soar, lightweight diamond jewellery is shaping the future of modern luxury. Today’s consumers seek pieces that are versatile—graceful, minimal, and effortlessly beautiful. This evolving demand has influenced Sky Gold’s design language, which seamlessly blends India’s artistic heritage with contemporary silhouettes and subtle sophistication.
Innovation with a Heart
Behind this collection lies advanced R&D and cutting-edge technology. Sky Gold’s workshops employ high-precision CAD systems, laser tools, and 3D modelling to enhance detail while preserving the human touch of artisanal craftsmanship. Technology may provide precision, but the soul of each piece remains handcrafted. Artisans infuse emotion into every curve and setting—because while machines can replicate form, only human hands can shape feeling.
Jewellery as Legacy
Gold has always symbolized trust and enduring value. When paired with diamonds, it transcends material wealth to become a vessel of memory and meaning—something passed down not just as inheritance, but as emotion. Today’s consumers view jewellery differently; it is no longer reserved for grand occasions. Instead, people choose pieces that mirror their individuality—a powerful shift that defines the new era of fine jewellery.


Sky9 line unveiled at DShow, Goa
At the DShow in Goa Sky Gold & Diamonds unveiled new expressions of lightweight diamond artistry under its Sky9 line—designed for modern collectors who believe that true luxury should feel as light as it looks. Visitors experienced exclusive previews of designs that embody purity, innovation, and emotion at their finest.
With India’s first 24KT diamond jewellery collection, Sky Gold & Diamonds is not merely setting a new benchmark—it is shaping the very future of fine jewellery.
The brand’s philosophy remains clear and timeless: “Our goal isn’t to chase trends. It is to craft pieces that outlast them—jewellery that celebrates purity and the beauty of what is real.”

Natural diamonds have to rediscover their relevance to a jaded consumer that wants to separate themselves from the past
By Edahn Golan
Martyn Charles Marriott, drawing on 45 years in the diamond industry, in a blog titled Co-Operation between African Diamond Producers on the IDMA website, advocates for a new era of co-operation among African diamond producers, seeing the current debate around De Beers’ future as an opportunity. He proposes forming a diamond “OPEC,” reminiscent of the stability once maintained by the Oppenheimers’ Central Selling Organization (CSO). The CSO, through a stockpile, quota system, and vast generic advertising historically benefited the entire industry. Marriott believes a collective entity involving nations like Botswana and Angola would be more stable and bankable than a single-country approach.

JewelBuzz spoke to noted diamond industry analyst Edahn Golanon his take on Marriott’s view and how practical and feasible this “ nostalgic yearning” was. This is what Edahn Golan has to say:
I don’t think that resurrecting a monopoly is possible, much less legal. I understand the nostalgic yearning for the ‘good old days,’ but that is not where the solution will be found. On the contrary, the industry at large – and De Beers in particular – needs to evolve and adapt. They both need to reinvent themselves.

Natural diamonds have to rediscover their relevance to a jaded consumer that wants to separate themselves from the past, a consumer market that wants luxury that doesn’t shout bling. Most importantly, diamonds should stand for values that are relevant to today’s cultural norms.
That is where diamonds will find their future, not by reimposing tight control on the pipeline.
I also read Chaim Even-Zohar’s column. I worked with him for many years and hold deep respect for both him and his approach to the industry.
That said, I believe Botswana does not need to go all in on owning De Beers.The country already receives more than 75% of the diamond revenue generated locally, along with a portion of the revenue De Beers earns from its operations in Namibia, Canada, and South Africa. Expanding that share or seeking a larger cut from other countries would only deepen Botswana’s dependency on diamonds.
Instead, Botswana should diversify its income sources and invest more internally, a process it should have initiated more than a decade ago.
For example, if it channels investment into its international airport and succeeds in expanding tourism, the country would generate greater income, reduce its reliance on luxury sales, improve foreign currency inflows, and, in the process, expose more of the world to its diamonds.
