At the Met Gala 2026 in New York City, Ananya Birla appears as a testament to her family’s deep legacy with exceptional gemstones. Designed by our creative director Pranay Mehta for the Birla family, and executed over 1500 hours of skilled craftsmanship, her stunning neckpiece highlights extraordinary rarity and creative vision.
Adorning her neck are rows of perfectly graduated round brilliant and pear cut solitaires from which are suspended remarkable marquise cut diamonds - exceptionally matched and seldom found in such pairs. This necklace crafted with over 150 carats of natural diamonds exudes her sense of quiet power.
The diamonds themselves, carefully sourced by us from across the globe, reflect the family’s jewellery heritage, and our own, built over generations with a discerning eye.
In wearing this piece, paired with and Ananya transforms high jewellery, art and couture into something dynamic and expressive - distinctly her own.
Thakorlal Hiralal is immensely proud that she has chosen to wear this neckpiece to fashion’s biggest night thereby placing India’s rich jewellery legacy and its craftsmanship at the center of a global cultural moment.
