Jewel Crush : Nirav Modi

Flowers and diamond go quite well together but even better when a flower is re created with diamonds. Jewelry house Nirav Modi is well known for doing just that through one of a kind pieces. Nirav’s family was in the diamond industry and he himself had a diamond trading business. It was when he was asked by a friend to create a pair of earrings, where he discovered his passion for designing and that is how his self named brand came about. Browsing the Nirav Modi flagship store in New Delhi, flowers are shining bright in forms of rings and necklaces. A favorite that stood out from the rest is the Orchid ring. The center stone is an extremely rare 5.67 carat fancy pink purple pear shape whose color you can only find in the most exotic orchid from nature. The rest of the surrounding diamonds, equating to about 12.50 carats, have a Mughal cut which Nirav created himself and patented.
