(Gem auctions in Bangkok)
.
Lets start this gem auction travelogue with the recent Belmont Brazilan emerald auction and a group photo to introduce few noticeable industry friends i had great discussions with during that auction: 
Left to right: 
- Isabella Yan (@izza_gem ), a freelance consultant providing her services ( communications, PR, client introductions, stock control, setting things up...) to Bonas. She is also a trade journalist who recently wrote an interesting article in Rappaport about rough gem auctions in Bangkok (see for more on her social media)
- Me (no introduction needed)
- Marcelo Ribeiro (@mar_rifer ), the Director of Belmont (@belmont_emeralds ). Marcelo is the grand son of the owner of Belmont (a fascinating emerald deposit discovered 46 years ago on a cattle ranch in Minas Gerais state of Brazil). After studying mining engineering, he developed this family owned mine as one of the most modern and efficient in the world. 
- Cyrille Djankoff (aka @cyrilledjankoff ), the head of Colored Stones at Bonas (aka @bonasgroup ) since 2020. Cyrille, a genuine gemstone adventurer with an incredible experience mining gems from Tajikistan to Africa, has been behind all the gem auctions organized by Bonas in Bangkok for the past few years.

THE LOWDOWN ON LAB-GROWN Lab-grown is such a hot THE LOWDOWN ON LAB-GROWN 
Lab-grown is such a hot topic these days. Read my article for @rapaportgroup on the latest developments. A very interesting article to write, carefully weighing both perspectives.
One way to prevent confusion between lab-grown and natural diamonds is to prioritise educating consumers about their differences. There is often a tendency to conflate the two, when in reality, sellers should treat them as distinct categories targeting different consumer demographics.
I particularly liked the analogy of the taxi and an Uber from Julia Kusher, founder of Ukraine-based jeweller Solo for Diamonds, to describe Natural and Lab-grown diamonds,@solo__for__dio "๐‘ป๐’‰๐’†๐’š ๐’…๐’๐’โ€™๐’• ๐’‰๐’‚๐’—๐’† ๐’•๐’ ๐’„๐’๐’Ž๐’‘๐’†๐’•๐’†, ๐’•๐’‰๐’†๐’š ๐’‹๐’–๐’”๐’• ๐’๐’‡๐’‡๐’†๐’“ ๐’…๐’Š๐’‡๐’‡๐’†๐’“๐’†๐’๐’• ๐’”๐’†๐’“๐’—๐’Š๐’„๐’†๐’”."
