Zimbabwe’s Vice President, General (Rtd.) Dr. Constantino Guveya Dominic Nyikadzino Chiwenga, recently visited the renowned diamond facilities of Hari Krishna Exports in Surat, signaling Zimbabwe’s growing interest in building stronger partnerships with India’s diamond manufacturing industry.

The visit marks a significant step in Zimbabwe’s broader goal to transition from simply exporting rough diamonds to developing domestic capacity in cutting, polishing, and value addition. Speaking during the tour, Vice President Chiwenga praised Surat’s precision-driven craftsmanship and the ethical standards that have helped establish India as a global leader in the diamond trade.

Highlighting opportunities for collaboration, he emphasized Zimbabwe’s openness to Indian expertise, particularly in skill development and training. “Such partnerships can generate sustainable livelihoods for Zimbabwean youth,” he noted.

In response, Hari Krishna Exports’ founder, Savji Dholakia, announced plans to train 50 young Zimbabweans each year in diamond cutting and polishing techniques. This initiative reflects a growing trend of India–Africa cooperation in the gemstone sector, with both resource-rich African nations and Indian manufacturing hubs poised to benefit from closer economic and educational ties.

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.

Designed across earthy and versatile colour palettes, the rakhis pair beaded elements in shades of black, brown and blue with diamond-studded motifs.

With this collection, Akoirah by Augmont seeks to elevate festive gifting by bringing fine jewellery sensibilities into a traditionally rooted celebration.
