Our dear ASHOKA_® partners in New Zealand, Partridge Jewellers, are celebrating their 160th anniversary this year!

To honor the occasion, Eve Goldberg flew to New Zealand in November to attend the Partridge Anniversary Gala. Guests gathered at the historic Auckland War Memorial Museum to toast to the Partridge family, enjoying stunning jewelry, music, and performances.

Eve told World of Partridge magazine, “Visiting New Zealand is truly one of my best experiences as I believe it is the most beautiful place on Earth that I have ever seen! I love coming back!”

The Partridge & William Goldberg Partnership

With exclusive partners around the world, William Goldberg continues to look for those who have the same passion for the ASHOKA_® as we do, as a company and a family.

Ten years ago, Eve Goldberg met Grant Partridge, Managing Director of Partridge Jewellers, and saw his passion for our proprietary diamond cut, the ASHOKA_®. Not only did Grant share our love for diamonds, but he also runs New Zealand’s oldest family-owned jeweler, which has flourished for six generations. All three of Grant’s sons are involved in the business.

Today, Partridge carries a beautiful selection of ASHOKA_® diamond jewelry, including their new ASHOKA_® Entwined Collection, featuring breathtaking bracelets, necklaces, rings, and earrings. Each piece was made with everyday wear in mind.

Partridge describes the contemporary collection as, “an expression of human connection and eternal love, the [collection] showcases the beauty of ASHOKA_® diamonds in delicate proportions.”

It was designed in-house using ASHOKA_® diamonds that are available exclusively at Partridge in New Zealand.

Celebrating 160 Years with an Extraordinary Jewelry Collection

As lovers of exceptional stones and diamonds, what better way to celebrate a milestone than with an exclusive jewelry collection?

At the gala in Auckland, Partridge presented their rare, limited-edition 160th Anniversary Collection. This collection includes one-of-a-kind timepieces and jewelry, featuring precious gemstones and striking ASHOKA_® diamonds.

The ASHOKA_® Infinity Necklace — this is the collection’s showstopper. Crafted in-house by Partridge’s team of experienced jewelers and designers, the necklace features 69 ASHOKA_® diamonds for a total weight of 39.05ct. Now, the best part. The pendant is removable and can also be worn as an elegant ring.

From the Atlantic to the Pacific, no matter where our travels take us, one thing is for sure — the ASHOKA_® diamond is loved around the world. Congratulations to the Partridge family on this momentous occasion and gorgeous jewelry collection!
