East Africa’s Premier Gemstone Alliance
Puagmae Festival and Abujuwan Trading are proud to operate as a joint enterprise, representing the pinnacle of Ethiopia’s mineral wealth.

The Best of East Africa: Our Collection
Ethiopia is rapidly becoming the most exciting gemstone hub in East Africa. Our joint venture specializes in sourcing the highest quality stones directly from the most prolific regions:
- Ethiopian Opals (Welo Region): We are top-tier providers of the famous Welo Opal. Known for their “Play of Color,” these stones are preferred by designers in Canada and Europe for their vibrant kaleidoscopic flashes and structural integrity.
- Shakiso Emeralds: Sourced from Southern Ethiopia, our emeralds are renowned for their rich saturation. We specialize in providing “No-Oil” specimens, which are highly valued in the North American investment market for their natural purity.
- Northern Sapphires (Tigray): We provide a consistent supply of blue, teal, and parti-sapphires. These are the stones of choice for the modern “Alternative Bridal” market, offering a unique color palette that traditional sources cannot match.
- Rare Garnets & Tourmalines: Our collection includes a wide variety of semi-precious stones, sorted meticulously by color and clarity to meet the specific requirements of luxury watchmakers and artisanal jewelers.
Why We are the Choice Providers in East Africa
Strategic Joint Capabilities: While Abujuwan Trading manages the heavy-lifting of international shipping, customs, and secure logistics, Puagmae Festival ensures that every stone meets the “boutique” quality standards required by high-end jewelry houses.
Direct-from-Mine Sourcing: We bypass traditional middlemen. By working directly with local mining cooperatives, we ensure that the value remains within the community and that our stones are 100% Traceable and Ethically Sourced.
Conflict-Free Verification: We adhere to the highest international export standards, ensuring all our products are fully compliant with Canadian and EU import regulations regarding environmental and social responsibility.
Bespoke Inventory: We offer everything from large parcels of rough stones for industrial cutting to single “Masterpiece” polished gems for private collectors.
