Diamond Industry Hub Hosts Summer Events

Published on 09/05/08

An array of events is taking place at the hub of London's diamond industry during the Coutts London Jewellery Week.

According to the Journal, the event - which takes place in the capital between June 11th and 15th - incorporates a timetable of activities at Hatton Garden, the historical and current centre of the gemstone and diamond sector.

Taster days, workshops, lectures and gemstone hunts are among the events that visitors can participate in at the garden.

Driven by the aim of highlighting British jewellers' talents, the Coutts London Jewellery Week brings together activities spanning parties to seminars, treasure hunts to 'bling and buy sales'.

The publication observes: "More patient than most and waiting for their time in the limelight are UK jewellers, aptly described by Swarovski as "the unsung heroes of fashion."

Meanwhile, Amazon has named diamond pendants as one of the most popular pieces of jewellery in its online shop.
