Jewelry
The COVID pandemic constituted a considerable shock for luxury item markets with a 25% dip in jewelry and watch sales in 2020. Nevertheless, the jewelry industry is bouncing back with confidence and projects a return to pre-pandemic growth paths throughout the coming years.
Major positive trends in the jewelry industry
- A surge in online sales as eCommerce gains a record-breaking post-pandemic foothold across diverse markets.
- Jewel industries associate with blockchain NFTs (non-fungible tokens) to address ethical concerns of sourcing, security and ensure financial lock-in.
- Rediscovered public interest in investing in jewels and luxury items.
- A reemerging market for pre-owned and vintage luxury items.
