Where Earth’s Rarest Stones Begin

Pakistan is one of the world’s most extraordinary sources of precious gemstones. From the emerald valleys of Swat to the legendary sapphire fields of Kashmir and the aquamarine peaks of Hunza, WINZA has spent two decades sourcing only the finest — stones of such rarity and beauty that they demand to become heirlooms.

Emeralds of Swat Valley
Swat Valley, KPK

The Emeralds of Swat

Deep in the mountains of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the Swat Valley yields emeralds of extraordinary clarity and colour — a vivid, saturated green that rivals the finest Colombian stones. Mined for over two thousand years, Swat emeralds are prized by collectors worldwide for their intense hue and natural inclusions that speak to their ancient origins.

At WINZA, each Swat emerald is hand-selected by our master gemologists for colour saturation, transparency, and cut potential before it ever reaches an artisan’s hands.

Colour: Vivid Verdant Green  ·  Origin: Mingora, Swat
Sapphires of Kashmir
Zanskar Range, Kashmir

The Sapphires of Kashmir

No sapphire on earth commands the reverence of a true Kashmir Blue. Born from a deposit discovered in the late 19th century high in the Zanskar Range, Kashmir sapphires are defined by their legendary “cornflower blue” — a velvety, unheated depth of colour unlike any other origin. Today, original Kashmir sapphires are among the rarest gemstones in existence.

WINZA sources only certified origin Kashmir sapphires, each accompanied by full gemological documentation and provenance records traceable to the mountain itself.

Treasures of Hunza
Gilgit-Baltistan

The Treasures of Hunza

The high-altitude valleys of Gilgit-Baltistan are home to some of the world’s finest aquamarines, tourmalines, and topaz — each formed under the immense geological pressure of the Karakoram range. WINZA’s relationships with trusted local miners in Hunza and Skardu ensure that every stone we source is ethically extracted and fairly traded — from mountain to maison.
