about diamond & dragonflies
Almarie du Plessis is the enthusiast and founder behind the South African born company, Diamond and Dragonflies. Her passion for the jewellery industry, especially diamonds, stems from her du Plessis family history in the diamond industry. She grew up in Kimberley, Northern Cape.
Almarieโs vision is to build an inspirational strong brand which educates people about the uniqueness that Mother Nature has to offer, specifically diamonds and gem stones.
Every single stone has its own unique characteristics, much like the human raceโฆ no two are identical!
The slogan depicts her design which is โBeauty in Simplicityโ.ย The brand epitomises style and exclusivity for all ages.
“It is important for me that the Diamond and Dragonflies client understands my passion for simplicity, uniqueness and elegance. My goal is exposure and awareness of the interesting jewellery possibilities out there. To think outside te boxโ โ Almariรฉ
