Honoring the Art of Color, Craftsmanship, and Design

Omi Privé is honored to celebrate another year of recognition from the American Gem Trade Association (AGTA). Following last year’s accolades, the 2025 AGTA Spectrum & Cutting Edge Awards once again recognize our dedication to the art of color, craftsmanship, and design excellence.

For us, these awards are more than distinctions, they are reflections of the countless hands and hearts that bring every Omi Privé creation to life. From the moment a gemstone is unearthed to the final polish of a finished piece, each design tells a story of passion, precision, and legacy.

We share this honor with our extraordinary artisans, team members, and collectors who share our enduring affection for rare gemstones and the emotions they inspire.

2025 Spectrum Award Highlights
Best Use of Color & Evening Wear – 3rd Place

Opal, Tsavorite Garnet, Hauyne & Diamond Ring (R2972)

At the core of Omi Privé’s design philosophy lies a celebration of color, and this award-winning piece embodies that ideal. A vivid 8.48 carat Australian black opal ignites with a shifting prism of color, pierced by the crystalline clarity of tsavorite garnet and hauyne. Framed in yellow gold, its play of color moves across its dome; alive, mercurial, and mesmerizing.

Bridal Wear – Honorable Mention
Heart-Shape Rainbow Moonstone, Paraíba Tourmaline & Diamond Pendant (P1658)

This platinum and rose gold pendant captures devotion in gemstone form, the play of colors evoking balance and striking passion. At its center glows a 9.20 carat faceted heart-shape rainbow moonstone, framed beneath a pear-shape Paraíba-type tourmaline. The surrounding halo of Paraíbas and diamonds reflects light and emotion alike, creating a radiant heart that mirrors the essence of love itself, transcendent and emotional.

Classical – Honorable Mention
Pink Sapphire & Diamond Ring (R2978)

The Classical category honors timeless elegance, and this ring exemplifies that with a modern sensibility. A vivid cushion-cut pink sapphire radiates from the center, encircled by a diamond-pavé halo accented with fine pink sapphires. Each facet glows with enduring sophistication, echoing the artistry of the hand-set details and the perfect harmony of proportion and color.

It is a testament to the quiet luxury that defines Omi Privé’s aesthetic; bold in hue, yet refined in the details.

Phenomenal Gemstones – 3rd Place & Honorable Mention
3rd Place: 9.09ct Color-Change Violetish-Blue Sapphire (SA3656)
Honorable Mention: 12.80ct Pinkish-Purple Star Sapphire (FS1623)

Nature’s optical marvels take center stage in these Phenomenal category recognitions. Both gemstones reveal a rare characteristic that must be experienced to be believed: the dynamic hue shift of color-change sapphire and the ethereal star that dances across the surface of pinkish-purple star sapphire. 

Their phenomenal gemology captivates and sparks imagination. Stay tuned for what mesmerizing designs are destined for these remarkable gemstones…

The Heart of Omi Privé

Each gemstone in these award-winning designs was chosen for its unique personality, their color, glow and phenomenal nature, and then crafted into a design that celebrates its spirit. 

Every accolade is a reflection of that devotion, a moment to honor the collaboration between earth, craft, and imagination. 

Being honored with multiple AGTA Spectrum Awards over the last decade continues to reaffirm Omi Privé’s purpose; to celebrate the incomparable beauty of nature’s artistry by creating lasting legacies and timeless heirlooms. 

From opal’s dancing fire to moonstone’s ethereal glow, from sapphire’s brilliant hues to tourmaline’s electric brilliance, these are not simply jewels, but expressions of wonder.
