De Beers Group, the world's leading diamond company, will support diamond jewellery retailers in driving demand for natural diamond jewellery by showcasing a new gifting occasion in the lives of young consumers – the second ear piercing, which is an intrinsic part of India's traditional culture and modern rituals.
De Beers is introducing a heart-warming 'Love, From Dad' collection as part of the Second Ear Piercing Ritual program. The collection highlights the unique and irreplaceable bond between fathers and daughters — one as rare, precious, and enduring as a natural diamond.
· Access and customize the 'Love, From Dad' campaign collaterals with their branding as well as receive virtual training sessions on natural diamonds.
· Leverage INDRA's WhatsApp channel for seamless customization and personalization
Mr. Amit Pratihari, MD, De Beers India, said, "With the innovative 'Love, From Dad' campaign, De Beers continues to promote the unique qualities and desirability of natural diamonds, reinforcing their status as the ultimate symbol of enduring love and meaningful rituals. This program not only strengthens consumer connections to natural diamonds, but also provides retailers with a strategic platform to enhance their offerings during the festive season and beyond."
At the heart of the Second Ear Piercing Ritual program lies a powerful coming-of-age moment: a daughter's second ear piercing. Unlike her first, which is often a decision made for her, the second piercing is a ritual where she chooses to express herself on her own terms.
In this key rite of passage, a father sees his daughter shaping her own story. He knows that growing up as strong and independent isn't just important for her; it's everything. And there's no prouder moment than watching her step into her own light.
De Beers Group aims to encourage dads to celebrate this new sense of independence through the heartfelt 'Love, From Dad' campaign. A natural diamond is an unbreakable, rare and timeless symbol of both a girl's sense of self and of the unique father-daughter relationship.
Meanwhile, to support the Indian consumer's connection to natural diamonds and the Second Ear Piercing Ritual campaign-
o Information on natural diamonds—their authenticity, rarity, and timeless value
o A curated catalogue of diamond stud earrings for second piercings
o A store locator to help consumers find their nearest participating retailers
The 'Love, From Dad' campaign is launched as a 360-degree multi-lingual initiative to create maximum impact whilst ensuring deep consumer engagement across television, print, OOH, radio, influencer marketing and social media. The campaign has rolled out today and will continue through the upcoming festive season—a time for meaningful gifting and family celebrations.
By combining powerful storytelling with an omnichannel approach and strategic partnerships, De Beers is shaping the future of natural diamond retail and showcasing the insight that some love is so natural, only a natural diamond will do.
Conceptualised and executed by 82.5 Communications, the 'Love, From Dad' campaign invites the audience to witness the precious moments between dads and their daughters. It's a campaign that De Beers hopes will inspire dads and their daughters to come closer and understand how much they mean to each other.
Ms. Sangeetha Sampath and Mr. Ravikumar Cherussola, Executive Creative Directors – South, 82.5 Communications, said, "Relationships and diamonds have always been a rich space to explore. Our task was to identify a fresh take in this space. The world sees teenagers in a stereotypical way. But the dad sees his young teenager as an adult-in-training. Her overflow of emotions is a part of growing up, while she is figuring who she is and isn't, like when she wants a second ear piercing. This campaign is a faithful portrayal of this dad-teenage daughter relationship."
The campaign rolls out across TV, print ads, radio, digital, social media, OOH, and other experiential touchpoints, ensuring that the bond and camaraderie between dads and their daughters resonate with everyone in a heartfelt manner.
