The Global Gem and Jewellery Industry thrives at the intersection of fashion trends, cultural preferences, and consumer behavior. Spanning from single-stone stud earrings to intricate ornaments, the industry encompasses diverse accessories cherished for their aesthetic appeal and symbolic significance. With spending power on the rise, especially among the middle-class consumer segment, the market continues to flourish, driven by the allure of luxury goods and the tradition of gift exchange practices across different cultures.
This market research report extensively covers market segmentation by distribution channel (offline and online), type (gold, platinum, silver, diamond, and gemstones), and geography (APAC, North America, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and South America). In the distribution segment of the market, authenticity and purity remain paramount, ensuring customer trust and satisfaction. Luxury metals like gold, silver, and platinum continue to dominate, complemented by exquisite gemstones and diamonds. The gem and jewelry industry thrives on a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design, with skilled designers driving innovation. Technology plays a crucial role in enhancing distribution channels, and facilitating online retail and customization options. Ethical practices in sourcing and production are increasingly valued by consumers, influencing purchasing decisions. Export destinations remain significant, reflecting the global demand for high-quality gemstones and jewelry pieces.
The market share growth by the offline segment will be significant during the forecast period. The revenue of the offline distribution channel comes from the sales of products through speciality stores (including exclusive brand stores, multi-brand stores, and premium fashion stores); hypermarkets, supermarkets, and clubhouse stores; and department stores. Over the years, the revenue of the offline distribution channel has witnessed a gradual decline due to the shift in consumer preference toward online shopping. To fuel sales through offline channels, players are managing their sales through store expansions in the local and regional markets, which will increase the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

The offline segment was valued at USD 217.74 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. In this segment, companies are also accelerating their offline sales by widening their store operations at different geographic locations. This helped the company generate and sell products efficiently and cater to every consumer category in large geographic areas. This not only raises the sales of jewelry products but also fuels the sales of the market. The huge growth in retail channels in different cities and regions will drive customer familiarization with different types of gems and jewelry. It will also increase the value sales of the market during the forecast period. Although the offline distribution channel is losing its market and popularity to the online channel, extensive and innovative marketing will propel sales through the channel at a steady rate.
APAC is estimated to contribute 61% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. In 2022, the market in APAC was the largest segment of the market and is expected to grow at a significant rate as compared to other regions.

Wedding celebrations play a significant role in driving the demand for jewelry, which is primarily seen as an occasional product. Bridal jewelry, including necklaces, wedding bands, and engagement rings, holds a substantial share in the market. The market is further fueled by the growing expenditure on bridal collections. India stands out as a major market for wedding jewelry, with increasing budgets allocated to wedding functions. The expanding middle-class population and rising disposable income contribute to the growth of the market as individuals save more for their own weddings and those of their family members. This increased savings translate into higher spending power on wedding functions and related products, including bridal jewelry.
The introduction of AR in the market is the primary trend driving the market growth. Augmented reality is driving demand in the global market, particularly in the online segment. To enable customers to try on jewelry virtually before purchasing, e-commerce players are developing platforms based on augmented reality technology. Customers can use the camera on their device to see how different products look on them and choose the perfect match.
Riddles Jewelry, a US-based player, has already launched an application for Android and iOS platforms to provide this feature. The introduction of such features will not only support informed decision-making by customers but also drive growth in the online distribution channel and the global market.
The global market is facing a major challenge with the decline in demand for gold jewelry as an investment option. Gold jewelry has traditionally been popular not only for personal adornment but also as a favoured investment choice, particularly in countries like India. Its high resale value and significance in gifting during weddings have contributed to its appeal. However, the market has witnessed a shift towards alternative investment options and intricate fashion jewelry in recent years, resulting in a decreased demand for gold jewelry. To address this, the Indian government introduced gold bonds as a measure to reduce reliance on gold as an investment avenue.
This decline in demand for gold jewelry poses a significant challenge to the overall growth of the global gems and jewelry market, given that it is the largest segment. Companies operating in the online jewelry retailing sector have been particularly affected by this trend, impacting their revenue. Weak consumer demand and the upward trend in gold prices are expected to further impact the growth of the global market.
