The International Colored Gemstone Association to organize Indian jewellery fair at Israel.

ICA members cooperate to create a magnificent exhibit of traditional Indian jewelry at Israel Diamond Museum.

Here is a fail proof recipe: Take two prominent members of the International Colored Gemstones Association (ICA), one from India and one from Israel; draw freely from their boundless passion for gems, their contagious enthusiasm, their diverse design capabilities and excellent photographical skills, add some Indian fervor and a dash of Israeli tenacity to the mix, and voila, one has created an unbeatable creative team.

The Indian ICA member is Sudhir Kasliwal, scion of a centuries-old jewelry dynasty from Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. The Israeli member is Yehuda Kassif, managing director of the Israel Precious Stones and Diamonds Exchange, a member of the Board of Directors of the Harry Oppenheimer Diamond Museum, a special assistant to the ICA president, and a skilled and innovative jewelry designer and connoisseur

This month, the two staged a unique exhibition of traditional diamond and colored gemstone jewelry from Jaipur at the Israel diamond and gemstone trading center's museum in Ramat Gan, Israel. Featuring more than 100 pieces of jewelry, specially chosen and made available by Kasliwal, the jewelry is part of the enormous private collection of the Kasliwal family, owners of Jaipur's renowned Gem Palace jewelry store. Kassif, who is the exhibition's initiator and curator, noted that Jaipur is still the chief Indian center for the design and production of jewelry, especially in traditional patterns.
