Sparkle 09 In India Sees Sale Of Diamond Solitaires
There’s a market for high end diamond solitaires in India and China and the gems and jewellery exhibition called Sparkle 09 saw a lot of solitaires being sold. The main piece to go was an over 7-carat diamond that was sold for over £200,000. It was bought by an identified buyer from Mumbai, India’s commercial capital. One buyer also bought a jewellery set for around the same amount which included a necklace, a diamond ring and bracelet.
The exhibition saw the sale of more solitaires that were over 5 carats in weight and there were a number of enquiries as well. It seems to augur well for the diamond cutting and polishing centre in Surat in India where around 80% of the world’s diamonds over 1 carat are polished. Sources say that there are buyers who come to Surat to enquire about diamonds over 10 carats too.
