This extraordinary piece, weighing 4.30 carats, is the culmination of two months of painstaking work by five experienced diamond cutters from Surat.

Known globally for its expertise in cutting and polishing diamonds, Surat has now added a new dimension to its reputation with lab- grown diamonds. The cre- ation of a lifelike replica of Donald Trump highlights the city’s innovation and skill in this field.

Smit Patel, the diamond industrialist behind this masterpiece, explained, “Our artisans in Surat have created a special lab-grown diamond replica of Donald Trump. Unlike natural diamonds sourced from mines and then processed in Surat, lab-grown diamonds are created entirely within a controlled laboratory environment. They possess the same quality and value as mined diamonds, undergoing rigorous processes of high- pressure synthesis and expert cutting.”

The meticulous craftsman- ship involved in crafting this diamond replica involved a 60-day process. “This D-color diamond,” Patel emphasized, “known for its exceptional purity and brilliance, required extensive planning and expertise. It took 40 days to prepare the raw material, with the entire growth and cutting process completed within 60 days.”

The significance of this diamond extends beyond its beauty. Patel noted, “This special diamond, featuring a replica of Donald Trump, symbolises the craftsmanship and unique capabilities of Surat’s diamond industry. While the exact price remains undisclosed, its rarity and design suggest a value exceed- ing 20 lakh.”

This isn’t the first time Surat’s diamond artisans have created such prestigious pieces. Previously, Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifted a green diamond, also crafted by the same company, to the wife of former US President Joe Biden, under- scoring the city’s role in foster- ing international relations through its craftsmanship.

As Patel prepares to pres- ent this exquisite diamond to Donald Trump, he reflects on its significance. “This gift rep- resents the deepening ties between India and America,” he remarked. “It embodies the finest traditions of Surat’s diamond industry, showcasing our ability to blend innovation with artistry.”
