This expansion follows the initial viewing event scheduled for March 17-19, 2025, at the DMCC’s Almas Tower in Dubai, UAE. The auction results will be revealed on March 27, 2025.
The exhibition will showcase an exclusive collection of high-value sapphires, including blue, pink, Padparadscha, and yellow varieties sourced from renowned locations such as Kashmir, Madagascar, Burma, and Sri Lanka. These gemstones, known for their exceptional quality and rarity, will be available for private viewing at both locations by invitation only.
As part of its commitment to transparency, Jemora Gemhouse has integrated its high-end sapphires into the Provenance Proof Blockchain platform. This decentralized digital ledger enables owners to trace the journey of their gemstones from auction to final jewellery, ensuring authenticity and accountability within the gemstone market.
The expansion of the viewing locations reflects the strong demand from collectors, jewellers, and industry professionals eager to experience Jemora Gemhouse’s premier selection of sapphires. The inclusion of blockchain technology further reinforces the company’s dedication to innovation and trust in the gemstone trade.
Dev Shetty, Jemora Gemhouse’s Founder and CEO, says, “We were thrilled by the excitement following the announcement of our inaugural auction in March. The market’s overwhelming response has led us to add New York, in addition to Dubai, as a venue for viewing our rare and high-value polished sapphires. This expansion allows collectors, trade partners, and jewellers to experience our top-quality gemstones firsthand. Additionally, we are excited to partner with the Provenance Proof Blockchain. This collaboration will enhance transparency and accountability throughout the gemstone supply chain when the sapphires arrive at our auction house.”
