On October 3, the Natural Color Diamond Association (NCDIA) will host a 2013 conference on brown diamonds at the Diamond Dealer’s Club in New York City. The spectrum of natural brown diamonds is often referred to as common color terms as champagne, cognac, chestnut, latte as well as trademarked names such as Le Vian’s Chocolate Diamonds™, and one of the NCDIA’s goals is to help the trade expand selection of color descriptions to make it more friendly and understandable to consumers.
These color schemes are an everyday part of the fashion world and lend themselves to perfect jewelry accessories.
This upcoming conference will feature presentations by leading scientists, gemologists and designers led by NCDIA’s Director of Education, Thomas Gelb, Wuyi Wang of GIA, Eddie LeVian of LeVian Jewelry and Surbhi Pandya of YNY Jewels. Retailers, manufacturers, designers and press are all encouraged to attend the conference.
There will be an extensive exhibit of designer jewelry and unset loose brown family diamonds, including pinkish and reddish, which show the diversity and creative designs they have inspired. There will be plenty of time for networking, meeting new people, enhancing existing relationships, and creating business opportunities.
