Where science meets serendipity. To create path-breaking inventions that build a new path. For ourselves. For our planet. For our future. Our scientists, researchers and multi-functional teams are obsessed with how to make life better, greener and more balanced.
Discover moreThe latest innovation from our S.T.A.R. (Science Technology and Advanced Research) Labs – nuovo diamonds. Not torn from the bosom of the earth. But painstakingly grown in precise and perfectly balanced conditions in our labs. While rebalancing the carbon equation in the atmosphere. A true gem, that has the potential to make life shine. With pride.
