Custom-crafted brown diamond portrait recognises Harsh Sanghavi\u2019s contribution to Gujarat and the diamond industry<\/em><\/p>\n

New Delhi [India], June 19:<\/strong> In a unique tribute to Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi, ISGJ Jewellery College and diamond technology company Lexus SoftMac have jointly created a 10.07-carat premium brown diamond sculpture replicating his side-profile. The custom-manufactured diamond was conceptualised in recognition of Sanghavi\u2019s contribution to the development of Gujarat, and in particular, his support for the diamond industry.<\/p>\n

The project brought together advanced design technology, precision planning and specialised manufacturing expertise. While the conceptualisation, source-image analysis, facial mapping and 3D planning were undertaken by ISGJ Jewellery College, the cutting, polishing and execution of the diamond sculpture were carried out by Lexus SoftMac.<\/p>\n

Developed over a period of nearly four months, the project sought to transform a diamond into a recognisable facial replica while preserving diamond yield, visual aesthetics and optical performance. The finished piece showcases a detailed side-profile likeness of Harsh Sanghavi, with the natural brown colour of the diamond enhancing the depth and definition of its sculpted facial features.<\/p>\n

Kalpesh Desai, CEO of ISGJ Jewellery College, said the project demonstrated how design innovation, technology and craftsmanship can converge to create entirely new forms of diamond artistry.<\/p>\n

\u201cCreating a facial replica in diamond is an exceptionally complex process that requires extensive planning, digital modelling and artistic interpretation. Our team worked on source-image mapping, profile analysis and photorealistic simulations to develop a design that would accurately capture Harsh Sanghavi\u2019s profile while remaining true to the characteristics of the diamond,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe objective was not only to create a recognisable likeness, but also to demonstrate the capabilities of the Indian jewellery and diamond industry in pushing the boundaries of innovation. This project reflects how modern technology can transform a concept and a photograph into a unique diamond artwork,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Utpal Mistry, Founder and Director of Lexus SoftMac, said, \u201cI was working on a diamond sculpture inspired by the with Lord Krishna\u2019s face, and it inspired the idea of creating a similar tribute for Harsh Sanghavi, whom we regard as the diamond of the state because of his contribution to Gujarat and his support for the diamond industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cConverting a design concept and 3D model into a finished diamond portrait requires extremely high levels of precision in planning and cutting. It is a highly complex process involving advanced technology and meticulous execution. The final result exceeded our expectations and bears a remarkable resemblance to Harsh Sanghavi. We were delighted by his response when we presented this unique creation to him,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The project demonstrates the diamond industry\u2019s ability to transform concepts, photographs and digital planning models into highly customised diamond sculptures suitable for presentation, exhibition and collection.<\/p>\n

The creators described the piece as a symbol of innovation, leadership and the limitless possibilities of diamond artistry, while also showcasing Surat\u2019s excellence in diamond manufacturing.<\/p>\n

The 10.07-carat premium brown diamond sculpture is among the rare examples of a custom-crafted facial replica created entirely in diamond, reflecting the fusion of portrait artistry, advanced technology and precision diamond manufacturing.<\/p>\n
