Intellectual Property Rights in Jewelry: Can Cultural Expression be Appropriated‪?‬ IPSERIESWITHESMERALDOESQ

In episode 127 of the #IPSERIES Podcast, I explore the complex and controversial topic of intellectual property rights in jewellery, especially when it comes to cultural expression and appropriation. I discuss the recent case of Balmain, a luxury brand that was accused of copying the face jewellery of Sarah Diouf, a Senegalese designer who draws inspiration from her African heritage.

How can we protect the creativity and originality of jewellery makers, while also respecting the diversity and richness of cultural traditions? What are the legal and ethical implications of borrowing, adapting, or imitating jewellery designs from different cultures? Join us as we dive into these questions and more.
