JCK - Las Vegas1 - 4 June 2018
South Africa’s talent shines at JCK Las Vegas 2018 South Africa is internationally recognized as a leader in the mining of gold, diamonds and platinum, and holds the world’s largest reserves of gold and platinum-group metals. In fact, South Africa is almost synonymous with some of the oldest and most precious metals and minerals in the world.
What is less well known is that South Africa also creates from these natural riches some of the world’s finest jewellery, crafting virgin, precious-metals and minerals into exquisite jewellery forms, a kaleidoscope of the country’s natural energy, beauty and diversity.
In every respect, the South African jewellery industry is poised to take its place on the world stage. Few countries can boast the same proximity to the greatest reserves of precious stones and metals in the world, sophisticated jewellery manufacturing capability and infrastructure, skilled and talented manpower, and the boundless creative spirit of its people. This combustible mix is South African Jewellery, fusing the best of the old and the new; - innovative, contemporary design with ancient metals
and minerals; international quality and craftsmanship with traditional African themes. South African Jewellery is innovative and has also come of age.
We would like to introduce the international jewellery market to SOUTH AFRICA, THE LAND OF GOLD, PLATINUM AND DIAMONDS.
Once again, our National Pavilion will offer exclusivity, originality of design, prestigious quality and competitive pricing on high end product. The jewellery on display is only a sample of South Africa’s jewellery manufacturing capability. It represents the riches and talents of our country, and our industry. It is how we are transforming our natural wealth into a future, priceless vision.
For any information on the South African jewellery industry as well as business to business introductions, please contact the Jewellery Council of South Africa on [email protected] or visit our website on www.jewellery.org.za
This is South African Jewellery!

RokWe take our influence from the design techniques and metalworking practices of the ancient Romans, long renowned for their mastery of the art and science of pre-modern metallurgy. From military soldiers to nobility to royalty, the Romans are known to have worn armbands and bracelets of leather and precious metals as testament to their status, power and wealth, not to mention their artistic creativity and love of luxury. Our design and production techniques are firmly rooted in and inspired by this tradition. Each piece is hand-crafted with minute care and attention to detail, and is as unique as the discerning individual wearing it. We use only the finest materials in our designs, from superb quality leather and metals such as brass, bronze and pure silver to hand-polished, semi-precious stones in an array of colours. Our brand also encompasses necklaces, rings, belts and watches all to the same degree of imperfectly perfect design for that timeworn feel.
