Each year, renowned names return to unveil their latest collections, connect with discerning buyers, and reinforce their presence in the region’s growing luxury market.
Here’s a look at how some of our key exhibitors made their mark at Jewellery Arabia 2024.
Devji Aurum, one of the world’s oldest fabricators of fine jewellery, proudly unveiled the "Gwenllian Collection", a groundbreaking collaboration with renowned Welsh fashion designer Jayne Pierson and go-to-market advisory firm nuForj. This marked the first time in the brand’s 70-year history that it partnered with a designer from outside the region. The collection was officially launched by His Excellency Alastair Long, the British Ambassador to Bahrain. Crafted with exquisite Welsh gold, diamonds, lapis, and malachite, the "Gwenllian Collection" features collars, cuffs, earrings, and rings adorned with Welsh triskelion motifs and Celtic knots. Each piece is signed by Jayne Pierson and serialised, intended to be worn as an amulet symbolising protection and heritage. Mahesh Devji, CEO of Devji Aurum, described the collaboration as a timeless merging of stories and traditions, blending Welsh, Arabian, and Indian influences into meaningful pieces.
