GIA's Brazilian Jewelry Collection

The spirit and soul of Brazil is highlighted in GIA’s newest jewelry  collection, which debuted at the GIA  Collection Booth during the 2006 AGTA GemFair in Tucson. The collection features traditional and contemporary pieces donated by Brazil’s top designers and manufacturers. Long known for its abundance of   colored  gemstones, Brazil is enjoying an emergence as a source of innovative jewelry design worldwide. The collection was built with the support of the Brazilian Gems and Jewellery Trade Association (IBGM). For more information about this or other GIA collections, contact Kimberly Vagner at kimberly.vagner@gia.edu, or call (760) 603-4150.
