Jewelry top sellers jewelry trends

The Gemstone Jewelry market experiences, trends and changes can occur rapidly or gradually. There are several reasons for this to occur.

a) Fashion trends, from the basic supply and demand of a gemstone, or the popularity of gemstone jewelry now compared to diamond jewelry.

b) The biggest trend has been the increase of younger buyers.

c) The millennials (aged between 18-30 years) and the generation x (aged between 30-40 years) have been purchasing more Gemstone Jewelry and noticeably have preference for natural gemstone compared to manmade gemstone jewelry.

Our Verified Sellers sold a record total of 177,680 jewellery pieces in this financial year. We saw a massive sales increase volume of 62%. Over the previous year.

The pandemic has helped sales with many sellers buying and re-selling on social sites or creating their own online stores.

Increase in sales is also due to many jewelry items in No Reserve and strong demand for jewelry lots that are listed daily to repeat jewelry buyers to sell on social sites or markets and retail shops.

Gemstone Rings also showed large increase in sales and this trend will continue as buyers buy more colored gemstone rings than traditional diamond rings

Gold prices in July, half year are around $1200 per ounce.

White gold jewelry is popular in 18k, while traditional designs will stay in yellow gold. Many shops and dealers now have gold jewelry at attractive prices and many gemstones set in gold are at bargain value prices. Many jewelry buyers who buy gold stopped buying when gold prices increased thinking that gold will drop. So a lot of manufactures worldwide stopped or slowed down production of heavy gold jewelry and concentrated on silver or light weight 9k gold rings or pendants. Our sites have heavy gold settings with opals or gemstones at value prices for extremely good buying.
