Joyalukkas working on 5km long ‘Dubai Celebration Chain’

The Joyalukkas Jewellery Factory is buzzing with excitement as craftsmen are rigorously working on the "Dubai Celebration Chain"; a historic creation that captures the dynamic and ambitious spirit of Dubai and specifically commemorates the 20th edition of the Dubai Shopping Festival. The final gold chain will be 5km long and approximately weigh 180kgs; is being completely handmade by trained Joyalukkas craftsmen who are taking painstaking effort to create the masterpiece. Joyalukkas has assigned more than 100 specialized craftsmen on the project and all of them are delighted to get an opportunity to work on the historic creation.
“We are honored to create a piece of history for Incredible Dubai! This is a land which does not have ‘impossible’ in its dictionary and the ‘Dubai Celebration Chain’ is a salute to this spirit and a commemoration to the fantastic journey of the Dubai Shopping Festival’. The shopping festival has captured the hearts of residents and millions of tourists for 19 years and the 20th edition promises to be bigger and better. Joyalukkas is proud to be a part of this mammoth initiative and thank the rulers of Dubai, Dubai Festival & Retail Establishment and the Dubai Gold & Jewellery Group for making us a part of this wonderful salutation,” said Joy Alukkas, chairman & MD, Joyalukkas Group.
The historic piece post completion will be cut and sold as Bracelets and Chains so that residents and tourists get a chance to own a piece of history. On purchase they will also get the opportunity to win 100 Kgs of gold and 40 Carat diamonds during the DSF period.
P.R. Baby, head of production at the Joyalukkas Jewellery factory said “This would have been, under normal circumstance a tiring job, however since this is a salute to Dubai’s spirit and a commemoration to DSF, we are all extremely excited to get the opportunity to work on this and we don’t mind the effort”.
