In this unfiltered conversation, independent diamond analyst Paul Zimnisky joins Nivoda’s founder David Sutton for a deep dive into what’s really going on in the world of natural and lab-grown diamonds.
From plummeting engagement ring prices to confused consumers, underperforming retailers, and the fading power of big players like De Beers – nothing is off the table. We talk candidly about:
- The lab-grown vs. natural diamond dilemma
- Why engagement rings are losing value
- What retailers are getting wrong at the point of sale
- How the industry lost its story – and how we get it back
- Where real opportunities still exist
- And what must change if we want diamonds to stay relevant
If you’re in the trade – retail, manufacturing, or marketing – this is the conversation you can’t afford to miss.
