 Mainland drives global jewellery market

A model displays jewellery from the House of Baguettes from New York during the Hong Kong International Jewellery Show in Hong Kong March 4, 2011. More than 2,800 exhibitors from 46 countries and regions are taking part in the five-day-show beginning Friday, according to the organizers. Chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) Jewellery Advisory Committee and Fair Organising Committee of the show Lawrence Ma said in a press release that the global jewellery market was on the upswing, "driven, in good part, by the Chinese mainland and its growing appetite for jewellery. Last year jewellery sales on the mainland totalled some US$30 billion." [Photo/Agencies]
