Jewellery Industry
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty's Government what is their assessment of the prospects for the United Kingdom jewellery industry.
- Answer
-
Sales of precious metal jewellery have been affected by the high price of gold, and the industry's best prospects in the UK and internationally are for products that fit the luxury goods market, which continues to grow worldwide. UK Trade & Investment supports the industry in overseas markets, through funding for a designer jewellery showcase in Beijing in November 2011 and at trade fairs in Hong Kong, the United States, Germany and Switzerland.
