As the global jewellery industry continues its astronomical rise especially in the developed countries, some trail-blazing African jewellers are also holding strong in the market. They are trail-blazers with the can-do spirit who are not fazed by the highly competitive nature of the market. Trail-blazers whose’ design masterpieces have forcefully established them as leaders in the market.

One African jeweller that has kept jewellery lovers screaming for more is Nigeria’s Josephine Aburime-Shine, whose’ memorable and captivating jewelley designs have stood her and her company, Emotan Global Ventures, well-ahead of the pack.

Aburime-Shine is an enigma. This British-educated graduate of Business and Philosophy sits atop Emotan Global Ventures Limited, a successful Nigerian conglomerate that is into mining, music and media.

Piramed Ventures, a subsidiary in the Emotan Group of Companies, mines, cuts, and polishes gemstones which it later turns into assorted high-class jewellery pieces like Ear Rings, Necklaces, Rings, Bracelets, Pendants and Ornaments. The company also markets gemstones and owns a state-of-the-art Lapidary in Abuja, Nigeria, equipped with the capacity to handle any gemstone faceting and polishing work for operators in the gemstones and jewellery market. Piramed Ventures is believed to be Africa’s largest and leading market place for gemstones.

The parent company, Emotan Ventures, is into mining and trading on industrial minerals.

Another subsidiary in the Emotan Group, Phine Records, has an ultra-modern and fully-equipped music studio and is into artiste management, music production and marketing.

With her string of successes in her chosen endeavours, this youthful mother of two has become an icon and a role model. And also a testimony that with a clear vision, hard work and an abiding faith in God, All things are possible.
