Private Collection’s exhibit included both full suites of jewellery as well as single bespoke creations such as rings, earrings, bracelets, et al. as hand crafted by craftsman, whose lineage spans across three generations of working with Rehana and Shakil Saigol. The event was managed by J&S and public relations by Lotus.

On exhibiting the Private Collection, Mrs Rehana Saigol has said; “We are delighted to bring our brand back to Lahore with this exhibition. Our jewellery is unique, with each piece resonating echoes of generations of fine craftsmanship. The design work itself is a collaboration between myself, Shakil, our craftsman, and for our bespoke pieces, the client. At the time that we introduced our brand in 1983, jewellery consisted of generic designs rather than novel pieces that were individualized. I was fascinated by the huge spectrum of semi-precious stones and I wanted to use them with precious metals and diamonds to give them the importance they deserved to create pieces that stepped outside the norm. This was a shared vision that Shakil and I were both obsessed with and that manifested itself within Private Collection.

Since its inception three decades ago, Private Collection remains a much acclaimed jewellery brand with patrons from across Pakistan, Europe, the US and the Middle East and several royal families. The brand has also been stocked at the prestigious Saks Fifth Avenue in Washington.
