KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Luxury Jewelry Industry Had a Negative Effect Due to Reduced Demand during COVID-19 Pandemic

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing Lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden market growth reflected by the rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

Specifically, due to the lockdowns and limited travel and social interactions, the luxury jewelry industry struggled amid the outbreak of COVID-19. Reduced events and traveling cease most of the luxuries where people donned the extravagant jewelry to grace the event. Furthermore, on issues of stock and availability, the supply chain interruptions and declining production lead to these issues. Intense price control and fewer luxury sales pointed to the increased exposure and sensitivity of luxury markets to global cyclicality.

LATEST TRENDS

Sustainable materials, digitalization, and customization drive market growth

Another emerging trend that has very quickly taken its place in the niche is using sustainable materials within the design and production of luxury jewelry for people who respect the environment. This is because nowadays, customers are more conscious of the materials that go into the making of these commodities, the kind of metals that are being used, and whether the producers are practicing fair labor standards or not, and as such, high-end brands are incorporating these aspects. Digitalization is also still playing an evolving role within the market through solutions such as virtual try-ons and online customizations in improving customers’ experiences. Besides, an emerging trend is the desire for exclusivity and customization as customers are in their search for one-off products in the luxury goods market.

This increase has depicted a general trend of people incorporating more quality-associated accessories with high-end trims into their wardrobe.

• Hand Decoration: An equally popular product category within the luxury jewelry sector is hand decoration—rings, bracelets, and cuffs. It gives the consumer both aesthetic value as well as prestige, which is the reason these pieces are mostly beautifully made from rare materials. The industry of hand decoration & accessories is growing because more people are aspiring to build upon their attraction, style, and outlook to possess pieces or jewels that hold more character and make a statement.

MARKET DYNAMICS

Market dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.                         

Driving Factors

Rising affluence boosts market growth by increasing demand
 

Analyzing the effect of affluence, which represents the ability to pay for expensive products such as luxury jewelry, we find that customers who have more disposable income are willing to spend it on luxury products. The increase in income level—especially in developing economies—increases the demand since people want to flaunt their newly earned wealth using luxury ornaments and commodities.

The use of modern creativity, such as virtual shopping and customization, targeting younger generations on the digital platform also contributes to the growth and participation of luxury jewelry.

Restraining Factor

Economic fluctuations impact market growth due to sensitivity

The luxury jewelry’ market has the tendency to be highly affected by economic fluctuations and life-altering risks since hedge expenditures always take the backseat during economic instability. This and other trends show that economic fluctuations also play a role concerning market growth because the need for luxury products generally declines when people experience some kinds of financial problems. This sensitivity exposes the sector to subject itself to the prevailing conditions in the global economy.

• The OECD noted that currency fluctuations impacted nearly 37% of luxury exports from Europe in 2023, restraining stable international trade in jewelry.

Sustainability preferences boost market growth through responsible practices

Opportunity

The business prospect for luxury jewelry is further amplified by the increasing consumer preference for products that reflect more social and environmental responsibility. Because of the change in consumer consciousness towards sustainability, brands that provide clear supply chains, recycled components, and fair trade are popular. It does this not only for ecological-minded consumers but also for improving brands’ customer dedication and growth orientations in the value-based economy.

• The Jewellery Council of India stated that India’s diamond cutting and polishing sector employs over 1 million workers, creating opportunities for cost-efficient sourcing for luxury brands.

Counterfeits hinder market growth by damaging brand exclusivity

Challenge

Counterfeit and imitation are major problems for luxury jewelry since they erode the image of exclusivity that is associated with luxury jewelry. In truth, it can be exasperating and a band on the reputation of luxury brands when counterfeit products are created in such high quality and are most likely bought online. This problem can only be checked through constant spending in modern technology and creating awareness of counterfeits, making it costly for genuine players to operate.

• The World Customs Organization (WCO) estimated that counterfeit luxury goods, including jewelry, accounted for 3.3% of global trade in 2022, challenging brand authenticity.
