DANAT and The Bicester Collection Showcase Bahrain’s Natural Pearls at Jewellery Arabia 2025

 The Bahrain Institute for Pearls and Gemstones (DANAT) has strengthened its international presence with the launch of the DANAT–Bicester Collection Lounge at Jewellery Arabia 2025. The lounge highlights the growing collaboration between DANAT and The Bicester Collection, a global network of luxury retail destinations in Europe, the United States, and Asia, aimed at boosting the visibility and appreciation of DANAT-certified natural pearls worldwide.

Launched in June 2025, the partnership focuses on presenting Bahrain’s natural pearls in prestigious luxury retail environments while promoting DANAT as the leading authority in natural pearl certification. Jewellery Arabia 2025 provided an ideal platform to showcase the partnership’s progress and introduce upcoming international initiatives.

The lounge hosted high-profile guests for a curated reception and networking experience celebrating Bahrain’s rich pearling heritage. Attendees enjoyed personalized colour analysis consultations by Chantal Abboud and Jamal Sinno, and previews of future collaborations, including a planned exhibition of DANAT-certified pearls at select Bicester Collection locations in Europe in 2026.

Mrs. Noora Jamsheer, CEO of DANAT, highlighted the importance of expanding Bahrain’s global footprint: “Our partnership with The Bicester Collection is essential in elevating the international standing of Bahrain’s natural pearls. Jewellery Arabia 2025 allowed us to demonstrate the tangible progress of this collaboration and showcase how our pearls are reaching new audiences worldwide.”

Desirée Bollier, Chair of The Bicester Collection, said, “We are delighted to continue our collaboration with DANAT. This partnership reflects our shared dedication to craftsmanship, authenticity, and heritage, and it was a privilege to present Bahrain’s natural pearls to discerning visitors and future audiences.”

The event reinforced DANAT’s role as the global reference laboratory for natural pearl certification and its commitment to positioning Bahrain’s pearling heritage at the forefront of the international luxury market. Through this collaboration, DANAT continues to expand the global reach of Bahrain’s natural pearls, strengthening the Kingdom’s presence in high-end jewellery and luxury retail.
