GIA hosts Nirav Modi for presentation on ‘Engineering with Jewellery Art’

GIA (Gemological Institute of America) and its Mumbai Alumni Chapter held a knowledge sharing session with jeweller Nirav Modi who made a presentation on “Engineering with Jewellery Art”. This session was conducted at the Institute’s Mumbai campus with around 40 alumni members and students participating in the interactive seminar.

The seminar delved into both traditional and innovative diamond cuts and jewellery manufacturing techniques. Modi gave attendees a behind-the-scenes preview into his collections, highlighting two patented diamond cutting techniques: the Ainra cut and the Endless cut. Alumni and students were able to examine these cutting techniques up close with sample jewellery pieces from each collection.

“By showcasing his designs and techniques in a hands-on format, he has certainly helped inspire our alumni to envision innovations of their own designs,” said Manoj Singhania, education director of GIA in India and the Middle East.

Modi, a third-generation diamantaire, is the chairman and managing director of Firestar Diamond. Modi’s pieces are regularly featured in major global auctions, including Sotheby’s and Christie’s.
