From mine to retail

Most retailers hold polished stones from a dealer who bought them from another dealer. We start further up. AV Global holds a mining interest at the source and runs rough tenders in Dubai with the DMCC — so the same house is present at the ground, at the tender table, at the cutting wheel and at the counter.

Mine

Air interest held at the source, alongside a title producer and a local partner. Multi-decade weighting to large stones and fancy colour.

AV Globale

Tender

Production is redirected through state tender. AV Globale bids, and runs its own rough tenders from Antwerp, Dubai and India with the DMCC.

Cut & polish

Selected rough is cut to maximise face-up size, not just retained weight — which is why we can talk in millimetres.

AV Group

Certify

Independent grading. We do not grade our own stones, because a report from the seller is not a report.

Retail

This site, and the Mumbai and Dubai rooms. Same house, same stone, one margin.

DiamondXE

Stones of that class are DXE LUXE pieces, not everyday inventory — the wider catalogue is sourced through tender, and we say which is which. The one link we deliberately do not own is the laboratory: certification is only worth something if the person issuing it does not work for the person selling.
