Seminars will cover the following topics: Allure of Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald; Beyond the 4Cs Colour; Fluoroscence in Diamonds; History and Value Factors of Pearls; Spotlight on Synthetics; Diamonds – Are They Forever?
GIA will feature rare gem replicas during the event, giving visitors a unique opportunity to see
other stunning pieces of historic and gemmological significance side-by-side.
“Bahrain has traditionally been a major jewellery manufacturing centre attracting consumers within the country as well as from neighbouring countries,” said Nirupa Bhatt, Managing Director of GIA India and Middle East. “GIA will be sharing interesting information about gemstones at Jewellery Arabia to help buyers make a confident gem purchase.”
GIA organises Trade Education Seminars (TES) on a variety of topics to inform and educate the trade on current and relevant topics related to the gem and jewellery industry. It also conducts training programmes for retail sales associates for various retail jewellery outlets on a complimentary basis to support the institute’s mission.

With courses offered in Dubai, GIA also conducts regular classes across Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and many other key locations in the region.
