SINGAPORE (June 5): Gem of an idea
As we wait for the opening of retail stores in Singapore, you can still get your hand on exclusive products. For example, you can still shop via the Virtual Concierge service that is offered by jeweller B. P. de Silva. This is how it works: It starts with a brief jewellery education, which is helpful for those looking to commission a bespoke engagement ring, wedding bands or an anniversary keepsake. You will also get a guide of everything you ever wanted to know about diamonds and coloured gemstones — such as B. P. de Silva’s hallmark is the Ceylon Sapphires. After initial discussions, depending on the needs of the client, there will be an option to arrange for a follow-up virtual session, accompanied by a consultation round-up via email. The brand’s Bespoke Journey takes about eight to 10 weeks upon confirmation for the overall design to complete.
