A Sparkling Gift Guide for Ramadan by Mouawad

Fine luxury accents to celebrate the Holy Month with a distinct style

A refined look is the signature of discerning, stylish gents. This is why Mouawad has always been keen on creating fine luxury accents for him, from Swiss-made timepieces, to traditional misbahas (or prayer beads) and masterfully crafted cufflinks and rings ― often set with diamonds and colored gemstones ― to complement the unique style of gentlemen of distinction.

Leveraging decades of Mouawad’s Swiss watchmaking heritage, the House’s signature Grande Ellipse timepiece collection brings forth contemporary styles, stretching design and functionality to new heights. Combining clean, sophisticated lines with sporty looks, the finest, most durable materials, and audacious construction, the Grande Ellipse models have been realized and forged to be the choice of the world’s most discerning luxury timepiece customers.

As a subtle tribute to traditions, Mouawad artisans also craft fine prayer beads from 18-karat gold and adorn them with the finest diamonds and colored gemstones. Elegance flows gracefully from one bead to the other, emanating sheer poise and nobility. To paint the perfect portrait, matching cufflinks and statement rings come in, creating stunning ensembles of superb finishes.

After all, Mouawad takes pride and pleasure in being an intrinsic part of Ramadan for many families, especially those who cherish special gatherings and occasions with sparkle and style. For this, Mouawad is offering exquisite gents’ timepieces and accessories, handcrafted with infinite attention to detail and high-quality materials, making them a thoughtful and beautiful gift for a loved one during the special month of Ramadan.

About Mouawad

Mouawad designs, manufactures, and sells its own exclusive jewelry and timepiece collections ranging from boutique collections and haute joaillerie to magnificent bespoke masterpieces and objects of art.

Diamond Manufacturing

In addition to its jewelry and timepiece design and production, Mouawad also manufactures rough diamonds as a Diamond Trading Company (DTC) Sightholder, a privilege that grants it a direct and unique access to conflict-free rough diamonds and gemstones, sourced and purchased in countries that are full participants in the Kimberley Process Certification Scheme.

Diamonds and gemology have always been a passion for the Mouawads, and besides being renowned for fine jewelry and timepieces, the Mouawad family has acquired over the years some of the largest and rarest diamonds in the world, and many of these historic gems carry Mouawad as part of their designated name. The family’s ongoing support of the global industry through research and education led to third-generation Robert Mouawad receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Gemological Institute of America and having the GIA campus named in his honor.

Mouawad has been honored by the Guinness World Records five times, the most recent of which being for the Flower of Eternity Jewelry Coffer ― the most valuable jewelry box in the world (US $3.5M).
