Welcome to my reflections on the Istanbul Jewelry Show 2024, one of the world’s premier events for jewelry professionals. With over 26,000 attendees and 1,000 exhibitors from around the globe, this year’s show offered a fascinating glimpse into how the industry is innovating in response to rising gold prices, shifting market demands, and the growing presence of lab-grown diamonds. Join me as I explore the trends, insights, and connections that made this event such a unique experience for anyone in the jewelry business.
