From 10<sup>th<\/sup> July to 25<sup>th<\/sup> August, jewellery designers can submit their creations that incorporate elements from the winning couple&#8217;s love story into a bespoke engagement ring. The winning designer will receive a prize package and all materials needed to create the design.<\/p>\n<p>The first phase of the competition had couples, or one partner, submit their heartfelt love stories for a chance to win a custom engagement ring. A distinguished panel of judges carefully reviewed each application and selected the winning entry, marking the start of this jewellery design competition.<\/p>\n<p>The competition is to create a unique and meaningful design that captures the essence of the couple\u2019s love. All designs submitted for this must incorporate elements of the 1.44-carat fancy yellow diamond donated by Nungu Diamonds, as well as platinum contributed by Platinum Guild International USA. Accent stones, which are optional, will be donated by Anza Gems and B&amp;B Fine Gemstones.<\/p>\n<p>Once the winning jewellery designer is selected, they will collaborate with the recipient of the love story to bring the design to life, ensuring it reflects the couple&#8217;s shared experiences and aspirations. For designers unfamiliar with working with platinum, PGI is committed to providing resources and support to create an exceptional ring.<\/p>\n<p>The winner of the jewellery design portion of this competition will receive $5,000 cash, a scholarship for GIA education, membership to Jewelers of America and Jewelers Vigilance Committee, and a scholarship to the GRS school.<\/p>\n<p>BIJC Board President Annie Doresca said, \u201cThis contest not only showcases the incredible talent within the jewellery industry but also celebrates the power of love and meaningful connections.
