Hong Kong International Jewellery Show surprises during challenging times

The Hong Kong International Jewellery Show opened on 4th of March with global exhibitors and buyers participating and showcasing products in demand during times of increased Gold and Silver prices. ASEAN economies led the buying contingent, equally supported by China and other countries. Exhibitors showcased products highlighting the importance of jewelry designers, as many appreciated their creations. The Uzbekistan jewelry industry debuted its pavilion, supported by the Ministry of Investment Industry and Trade of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
While the show did not see much of buyers from Middle East because of the ongoing war situation, buying delegations from Cambodia, Myanmar, Kazakhstan, and other economies kept the exhibitors busy as the Japanese and Thai pavilions saw brisk bookings. Advanced machinery and tech tools many with AI interfaces, surprised manufacturers as they revelled in innovations. The Hall of Extraordinary is a sure hit and a space not to be missed.

Angola Increases Supply Amid Price-Sensitive Times

According to known sources, sales of rough diamonds from Angola surged by approximately 70% to roughly 17 million carats. However, due to slumping prices, the gross value increased by only 6.7%. The vast majority of these exports went to the UAE (78.6%) and Belgium (19.9%). Export volume exceeded production—which rose 8% to 15.19 million carats—as Angola drew from stockpiles at the Luele and Catoca mines instead of waiting for a price recovery. more
