New York--The Natural Color Diamond Association recently announced the results of the election for its 2017 board of directors.
The organization selected Alan Bronstein of Aurora Gems as its president while newly-elected board member Jose Batista of Rio Diamond Corp. was elected vice president.
Breanne Wittrock of Gunderson’s Jewelers was re-elected as vice president, and Scott West of L.J. Diamonds, the company whose diamonds will be on display at a Los Angeles museum later this month and that bought the “Argyle Violet” diamond, was selected to be secretary and treasurer.
Directors of the 2017 NCDIA board also include Jordan Fine of JFine Inc., Sean Moore of Borsheims and Marc Solomon of Solomon’s Jewelers.
The directors-elect will take office in January and participate in board meetings throughout 2017.
Incoming President Alan Bronstein said: “I am honored to be selected as the new president of Natural Color Diamond Association. It is clear that the focus for growth in our organization, our industry and the natural diamond world we are passionate about, is the education of the public, to liberate prejudices and conditioned notions of beauty and desire.”
