Surat firm studs 50,907 diamonds in single ring

SURAT: Hari Krishna Exports and its group company HK Designs have set a Guinness World Records for studding maximum number of diamonds in a ring.
The city-based diamond and studded jewellery manufacturer fit in 50,907 diamonds in the ring. The company was awarded the title in Mumbai recently.
HK Exports executives said the ring has been completely made out of recycled materials like gold and diamonds re-purposed from customer returns. The ring has eight parts which include four layers of petals, the shank, two diamond discs and the butterfly. Each and every diamond was hand set by a team of craftsmen. The ring has been named Eutierria, which means becoming one with nature - with the idea to show the connection of humans with nature, stated a company official.
"A team of qualified diamond and jewellery experts from the International Gemological Institute (IGI) have certified and done the valuation of this ring. The final gold weight of the ring is 460.55 grams and the diamond weight of 130.19 carats," he said.
Savji Dholakia, founder and chairman of HK Exports, said, "In line with our commitment to sustainability and the planet's well-being, we will plant one tree for each diamond set in the ring to support climate change action and a sustainable future.
Ghanshyam Dholakia,co-founder and managing director added, "I am deeply grateful for the recognition from Guinness World Records. It is a testament to our team's hard work and dedication. We hope to continue pushing the boundaries of innovation in the jewellery industry."
