Japan Maker Reveals NFC Diamond Jewelry

A Tokyo-based jewelry maker is mixing a little technology with its diamond rings to make sure they remain a girl’s best friend in the digital era and beyond. TSLJ Co., which operates Core Jewels, will begin taking orders for what it is calling the world’s first diamond items by a jewelry brand to come with near-field communication technology. “There have been proposals for NFC-enabled wearable materials and toy-like products with NFC, but our line is the first jewelry to have NFC in it,” Masanori Yamazaki, a representative of TSLJ, told Japan Real Time.
