Coluxe said it’s also talking to venture capital firms as it prepares for its upcoming seed funding round.
"Lab-grown diamonds are unlocking access in a market where only 6% of gold jewellery buyers own a single diamond. At the same time, consumer behaviour is evolving—women are now self-purchasing and seeking everyday fine jewellery that reflects their identity, not just tradition. Coluxe is building for this new buyer—with design, ethics, and emotional relevance at the core. This isn’t just a brand; it’s a behavioural unlock in an $80 billion+ market," shared Priyanka Gill, Founder and CEO, Coluxe.
