US fancy colour diamond supplier establishes Australian office Posted March 15, 2021 | By Arabella Roden ⢠Editor LJ West Diamonds, one of the largest fancy colour diamond suppliers in the US, has established an Australian subsidiary headquartered in Perth and led by former Rio Tinto executive William Gant.
The New York-based business holds one of the world’s largest collections of Argyle pink diamonds and has been an Authorised Partner of the mine since the 1980s.
Gant told
Jeweller that the business’ expansion into the Australian market was driven by demand. It made sense to set up a subsidiary office in Australia to better service the market here, primarily for the Argyle-certified pink diamonds, but also to expand further and develop the market for other colours and our jewellery as well
