Mumbai, Dec.2 (ANI): The Thai Gem and Jewellery Traders
Association organized a jewellery exhibition to promote Thai jewellery here on
Thursday.

Varieties of gold and diamond jewellery in various colours
were displayed in the exhibition.

Interacting with mediapersons, the Thai Gem and Jewellery
Traders Association vice-president, Atul Jogani, said as Indian consumers are
wearing diamond jewellery for centuries, the exhibition showcased jewellery
with coloured stones.

“Thailand and India have a Free Trade Agreement (FTA). So,
we have one percent duty on jewellery only. So, we are trying to promote Thai
jewellery in Indian market. People in India from thousand years are wearing
diamonds. So, how do you add more into diamond and jewellery?” said Jogani.

“The only thing which we can add is colours so we are
bringing Thailand jewellery of coloured stone to Indian consumers,” he added.

An Indian jewellery designer Nita Binani said the jewellery
displayed in the exhibition had a fresh look and ranked high on quality scale.

“I am very much interested in jewellery. I like Thailand
jewellery very much. Their finishing, their work and everything is high-end and
very nice,” said Binani.

The Thai Gem and Jewellery Traders Association (TGJTA) was
established over three decades ago to help jewellery traders and manufacturers
to expand the industry benefits to all. (ANI)
