This has been a year of significant upheaval in the global gem and jewelry industry, and frankly luxury in general. Supply and demand issues, changes in consumer attitudes, armed conflicts and deepening financial and political challenges are hamstringing the economic activity in major markets around the world. This has led to a heightened sense of caution for buyers at all levels of the gem market. Yet in this vacuum exists opportunities, where are they and how are influencing the value structure for jewelry? This is the fundamental question for appraisers to understand.
In the context of the most revered gem of all–diamond, the National Association of Jewelry Appraisers has invited veterans of the diamond industry and trade press to share their authoritative insights and put the Market in Perspective.
We will explore current price and supply and demand in the diamond market as well as get a sense of where the market is headed in the commercial side of the natural fancy colored diamond. We will also look at some of the more interesting stories to come out of the diamond trade.
