WGC Report: Central banks continue their great gold grab in November 2024
Based on available reported data, central banks bought a net $3B in November. The National Bank of Poland (NBP) was the biggest buyer with a total of 29 tonnes reported, its first addition ($3B) since April. The Monetary Authority of Singapore was the biggest seller, while the central bank of Finland also announced a reduction in its gold reserves.
Assessing the final act of 2024, central banks around the world continued to play a leading role in the gold market, with the data reported, central banks collectively added a net $3B of gold to their official reserves based on available reported data. This extends the broader trend observed throughout the year where central banks – in particular those from non-Western markets – have remained keen buyers of gold, driven by the need for a stable and secure asset amid global economic uncertainties. The gold price dip in November, following the US election, provided a solid entry point for buyers with added impetus to accumulate.

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.
