The Young Achiever’s Award at JEA shines a light on the rising stars of jewellery design. Hailing from design schools and studios across India, these students infuse their creations with fresh ideas, traditional crafts, and contemporary nuances. JEA takes immense pride in recognizing and showcasing these budding talents, offering them a platform for global exposure and recognition. Let's celebrate the promising future of jewellery design, shaped by the creativity and passion of these exceptional students. This year, JEA is providing an extensive platform for all design students. They are required to submit their portfolios on hard paper to the JAS office, and the shortlisted portfolios will be showcased at an exclusive gallery during the JAS: The Premium B2B Show on July 4th-5th-6th, 2025.

Last year, we honoured the hands behind the heritage—and the response was overwhelming. The JEA Artisans Award returns this year, humbly continuing our promise to recognise the magic of those who bring dreams to life with skill and soul. Celebrated by the industry and cherished by the community, this award is our collective applause for the unsung heroes of Jaipur’s craftsmanship. Their legacy is our pride—and we’re grateful to honour it again.

A tribute that touched hearts and turned heads—this year, the JEA Lifetime Achievement Award returns with renewed pride. Instituted to honour legends who’ve shaped the soul of the gems and jewellery industry, this accolade reflects a journey of brilliance, vision, and impact. The applause it received reaffirmed what we believe: greatness deserves gratitude. As we present it once again, we do so with deep respect and joy—celebrating the extraordinary spirits who continue to inspire us all.
