About the Exhibition

What Is Vicenzaoro September?

Vicenzaoro is an international business-to-business exhibition covering the gold, jewellery and watch supply chain. Its September edition is particularly relevant to businesses preparing collections, stock and sourcing strategies for the final retail months of the year.

The exhibition brings together more than 1,300 exhibitors and professionals from 145 countries. Visitors can compare suppliers, preview upcoming collections, examine diamonds, gemstones, materials and finished products, attend industry discussions and meet potential business partners in person.

Unlike a consumer jewellery fair, Vicenzaoro is designed primarily for commercial activity. Retailers can assess products for their stores, manufacturers can investigate components and technology, designers can source diamonds and other materials, and distributors can identify suppliers suited to their respective markets.

For diamond buyers, the exhibition provides an opportunity to compare stones, discuss specifications and assess potential suppliers within one international sourcing environment.

What to Source

What Can Buyers Source at Vicenzaoro September 2026?

Vicenzaoro divides the exhibition into communities representing different parts of the jewellery and watch industry. The principal exhibition areas cover:

  • High-end branded jewellery
  • Goldsmith production
  • Mountings and semi-finished components
  • Contemporary jewellery
  • Watches
  • Diamonds, gemstones, corals and pearls
  • Packaging and visual merchandising
  • Jewellery machinery and manufacturing technology
  • Ready-to-buy jewellery and components

For diamond buyers, jewellery manufacturers and retailers, the exhibition provides an opportunity to compare products across different suppliers while examining quality, shape, measurements, commercial suitability and potential supply arrangements in person.

Why September Matters

Why the September Edition Matters to Diamond Buyers

September is an important sourcing period for retailers preparing for proposals, weddings, Christmas gifting, New Year celebrations and other year-end purchasing occasions. Decisions made during this period can influence which products appear in showcases during some of the busiest retail months.

Effective diamond assortment planning involves more than purchasing whichever shapes or grades are currently attracting attention. Buyers must consider local customer preferences, practical price points, repeatability, replenishment possibilities and the balance between core inventory and more distinctive diamonds.

Manufacturers may also be preparing production schedules for year-end jewellery collections. Securing suitable diamonds early can reduce the risk of delays caused by unavailable sizes, inconsistent measurements or late specification changes.

Vicenzaoro September allows buyers to discuss matters such as:

  • Diamond shapes and carat-weight ranges
  • Colour and clarity combinations
  • Certification requirements
  • Matching and calibration
  • Jewellery applications
  • Production quantities
  • Repeat availability
  • Delivery expectations
  • Market-specific price positioning
  • Long-term supplier support

Meet Uniglo Diamonds

Meet Uniglo Diamonds at Vicenzaoro September 2026

Uniglo Diamonds will present natural diamonds for retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, designers and jewellery businesses seeking experienced sourcing support.

The available portfolio spans different carat weights, colours, clarities, measurements and cutting styles. Buyers can discuss Round Brilliant diamonds alongside popular fancy shapes such as Oval, Emerald, Pear, Princess, Cushion, Radiant, Marquise, Heart and Asscher.

Different businesses often require very different diamond assortments. One retailer may need diamonds for a core bridal range, while another may be searching for a particular centre stone for an individual client. A manufacturer may require consistent specifications across a production run. A wholesaler may need commercially relevant diamonds for several regional customers, while a bespoke jeweller may need an individual diamond selected around a highly specific request.

Meeting the Uniglo Diamonds team allows buyers to explain these requirements directly and examine sourcing possibilities based on their intended products, markets and customers.

Natural Diamonds for Real Business Needs

Natural Diamonds Selected Around Real Business Requirements

Diamond sourcing should begin with the purpose of the stone rather than an isolated grade on a report. A diamond intended for a solitaire engagement ring may be evaluated differently from diamonds selected for earrings, an eternity band or a tennis bracelet.

Matching, dimensions, proportions, face-up appearance, availability and replacement consistency can all affect whether a diamond or group of diamonds is commercially suitable.

At Vicenzaoro, buyers can discuss:

  • Required diamond shapes and sizes
  • Preferred carat-weight ranges
  • Minimum and maximum measurements
  • Colour and clarity combinations
  • Certified and non-certified requirements
  • Matching requirements for earrings and multi-stone jewellery
  • Diamonds for bridal and engagement collections
  • Repeat supply for established jewellery designs
  • Individual diamonds for bespoke commissions
  • Market-specific price and quality expectations

Diamond Shapes

Natural Diamond Shapes for Different Markets

Diamond-shape preferences vary across countries, retailers and customer groups. Round Brilliant diamonds remain essential for engagement rings, solitaire jewellery, diamond earrings, tennis jewellery and other classic designs. Their familiar outline and strong brilliance make them relevant across many different markets.

Oval, Pear and Marquise diamonds offer elongated proportions and can create greater visual coverage. Emerald and Asscher-cut diamonds provide a more architectural appearance defined by broad flashes of light and step-cut faceting.

Cushion and Radiant diamonds combine distinctive outlines with strong brilliance, while Princess-cut diamonds remain relevant for square designs and geometric jewellery. Heart-shaped diamonds may be selected for romantic, gifting or highly personalised pieces.

Rather than presenting every shape as suitable for every market, Uniglo Diamonds works to understand how a stone will be positioned, set and sold. This helps buyers select diamonds that make sense for their actual customers and jewellery collections.

Measurements and Proportions

Diamond Measurements, Proportions and Appearance

Carat weight is important, but it does not provide a complete picture of a polished diamond. Two diamonds with the same carat weight can have different measurements, proportions and face-up appearances. This is particularly relevant for fancy-shaped diamonds, where length-to-width ratio and outline can significantly influence the stone's character.

A jewellery manufacturer may require precise measurements to fit an existing mounting. A retailer may prefer an Oval or Emerald diamond with a particular length-to-width ratio. A designer may need stones with proportions that support a distinctive visual direction.

Before meeting Uniglo Diamonds, buyers should consider whether their requirements include:

  • Specific length, width or depth measurements
  • Preferred length-to-width ratios
  • Minimum face-up dimensions
  • Particular outline preferences
  • Cut or proportion expectations
  • Existing mountings that must be accommodated
  • Matching requirements for more than one stone
  • Visual characteristics that cannot be defined by grade alone

Bridal and Engagement Jewellery

Diamonds for Bridal and Engagement Jewellery

Bridal jewellery remains one of the most important commercial applications for polished diamonds. A bridal retailer may require documented centre stones across several popular carat weights and quality combinations. A manufacturer may need centre diamonds and matching side stones for repeatable engagement-ring designs. Bespoke jewellers may instead require individual diamonds selected around a client's precise preferences.

Buyers can discuss natural diamonds for:

  • Solitaire engagement rings
  • Halo engagement rings
  • Three-stone rings
  • Side-stone engagement rings
  • Diamond wedding bands
  • Eternity and anniversary bands
  • Bridal earrings and necklaces
  • Bespoke engagement-ring commissions

A strong bridal inventory often includes both dependable core options and distinctive diamonds for customers seeking something more individual. Buyers should consider which shapes, sizes and price positions are currently missing from their ranges before attending the exhibition.

Matching and Calibration

Matching and Calibration for Jewellery Manufacturing

Matching is particularly important when several diamonds will be used within the same piece of jewellery. Diamond earrings, three-stone rings, eternity bands, tennis bracelets, tennis necklaces and other multi-stone designs require consistency across relevant characteristics. Measurements, shape, colour, clarity and overall visual appearance may all need to be coordinated.

For manufacturers, consistent calibration can also improve setting efficiency and repeatability. Stones that vary significantly in size or proportion may require adjustments during production and can result in an uneven finished appearance.

Buyers meeting Uniglo Diamonds can discuss requirements for:

  • Matched diamond pairs
  • Coordinated side stones
  • Calibrated diamond selections
  • Eternity-band layouts
  • Tennis-bracelet and necklace layouts
  • Multi-stone jewellery
  • Repeat manufacturing specifications
  • Replacement stones for existing designs

Certification and Documentation

Certification and Documentation Requirements

Documentation requirements can vary according to the diamond's size, value, intended market and customer expectations. Some buyers require individual grading reports for centre stones. Others may need commercial documentation appropriate to calibrated or smaller diamonds.

Before the meeting, buyers should identify:

  • Whether individual grading reports are required
  • Preferred or accepted grading laboratories
  • Information needed for internal inventory systems
  • Import or export documentation requirements
  • Country-specific retail disclosure obligations
  • Sourcing or traceability information expectations
  • Whether documentation must accompany each diamond
  • Requirements for parcels, pairs or layouts

Discussing documentation at the beginning of the sourcing process helps avoid misunderstandings after a diamond selection has been prepared.

Antwerp Diamond Expertise

Antwerp-Based Diamond Expertise

Antwerp has been one of the world's most established diamond-trading centres for generations. Uniglo Diamonds' Antwerp background provides the business with a strong connection to the international diamond trade and an understanding of different market requirements.

However, a successful supplier relationship depends on more than location. Buyers also require accurate communication, clearly defined specifications, realistic delivery expectations and consistent follow-up.

Uniglo Diamonds approaches sourcing by first understanding what the buyer is trying to manufacture, stock or sell. This helps the team assess which shapes, qualities, measurements and supply arrangements may be most relevant.

The approach can support a retailer sourcing engagement-ring centre stones, a manufacturer preparing a repeat collection, a wholesaler serving several markets or a designer developing a specialised diamond-led range.

Preparing for the Meeting

How to Prepare for a Meeting with Uniglo Diamonds

Vicenzaoro is a large exhibition, and buyers can make better use of their time by arriving with a clear sourcing brief. Before meeting the Uniglo Diamonds team, consider preparing:

  • The diamond categories you want to source
  • Preferred shapes and carat-weight ranges
  • Required measurements
  • Acceptable colour and clarity combinations
  • Target customer and market
  • Intended retail or wholesale price position
  • Approximate quantities
  • Certification requirements
  • Matching or calibration requirements
  • Intended jewellery applications
  • Delivery expectations
  • Questions about repeat supply and future availability

A detailed brief does not prevent buyers from discovering new possibilities. It creates a useful starting point and allows the discussion to focus on diamonds that are commercially relevant to the buyer's business.
