Adam’s Achour (pictured), who has worked for Diamond Foundry and Ofer Mizrahi, has joined Aether Diamonds as vice president of sales.
Aether creates lab-grown diamonds from carbon taken from the atmosphere, it says, going beyond “carbon neutrality.” It was recently certified as a B Corporation.
According to his LinkedIn profile, Achour worked at Ofer Mizrahi Diamonds as senior sales manager from 2015 to 2019, then moved to Diamond Foundry as director of sales from May 2019 to March 2022. The move of Achour and several other employees to Diamond Foundry sparked a lawsuit.
In addition, Aether has also appointed Alain Bernard to its board of directors. Bernard was the CEO of Richemont CEO North America from September 2018 to May 2021, and prior to that was the president and CEO of Van Cleef & Arpels, America.
He is currently the founder and CEO of Abbey Road Advisory, a consulting firm focused on advising and investing in mission-driven luxury companies.
