GEMFIELDS
LIFESTYLE/FASHION
This collection of designer collaborations underscores not only the beauty of the gemstones, but also the range of shades, shapes and sizes that make up Gemfields’ portfolio. Whether precision cuts, cabochons that look like candy or slices that are ruggedly organic, each Gemfields Zambian emerald, Mozambican ruby and Zambian amethyst was the starting point for a bespoke creation. To coincide with the launch of this project, Gemfields unveiled a new global advertising campaign featuring brand ambassador Mila Kunis wearing ethically sourced Zambian emeralds and Mozambican rubies shot by Mario Sorrenti in Los Angeles
“Gemfields has observed that the demand for coloured gemstones in India has increased by 50% per year over the last four years alone, and we expect this percentage to grow higher in the coming years”, states Ian Harebottle, Gemfields Chief Executive Officer. “The overall acceptance, demand and popularity of gemstones in India have significantly risen in pursuit of owning something unique and unparalleled. In-fact, most of our gemstones are sent to India to be cut and polished. Indeed, Jaipur – where we are well established – is known as the emerald capital of the world.”

Building on the success of its emerald and amethyst operations in Zambia, Gemfields has now ventured into rubies, processed in Mozambique. Globally, it is the leading manufacturer and producer of emeralds
Gemfields announced its strategy for the Indian market alongside the announcement of famous Hollywood actress, Mila Kunis, as the company’s Global Ambassador. After carefully studying consumer preferences and buying patterns, Gemfields has observed that the North and West regions largely consume emeralds whereas the South and East regions are promising for ruby sales.
Gemfields’ unprecedented mine to market strategy, which allows consumers to trace the origin of their gems from the source, has rightfully resulted in the Company becoming leaders in the industry, especially in both India and Asia.
As well as developing proprietary product and practices, Gemfields is committed to bolstering the coloured gemstone sector, especially emphasizing the rare, unique qualities of coloured gems. Emeralds, for example, are many times scarcer than diamonds, although arguably infinitely more exciting, made up of countless microscopic fissures within in each stone that makes each gem completely unique.
