Celebrating the women shaping the jewellery industry

This International Women's Day, we’re celebrating the incredible women who are shaping the jewellery industry: those who bring talent, passion, artistry, and leadership to the world of fine jewellery. On this occasion, we’ve spoken to some of the talented women exhibitors who joined us at Jewellery Arabia, and they’ve shared their journeys, inspirations, and what drives them to push boundaries in craftsmanship and luxury.

Kristina Bokova, Director of Special Projects, LustrLabs

What inspires your creative process?

"Inspired by contemporary art and interior design, my vision stems from my mother, a gifted painter who filled our home with creativity. This drives my passion for sleek, modern, minimalist jewellery—designed for daily wear and storytelling. At LustrLabs, we collaborate with creatives across disciplines, blending refined craftsmanship with personal expression in every collection."

"The Warrior Earrings embody strength, empowerment, and fearless femininity. Named after a female warrior in Islamic history, Amaraa designed this statement piece to exude power and confidence. These ear cuffs elegantly cover the full ear, balancing fierceness with grace. Inspired by ancient armor, their intricate details symbolise resilience, making them a testament to strength and beauty."

Share the story behind a unique jewellery piece?

"The 'True North Reversible Compass' is a talisman of guidance. I designed it while overcoming health challenges, feeling lost. Inspired by exploration and life’s journey, it symbolises finding one’s way. Gifted to a loved one, it leads them home; gifted to yourself, it realigns you. This piece honours women's unique paths, reminding them they are never lost when they follow their inner compass."
