SURAT/JOHANNESBURG (Commodity Online): Even though diamond industry is going through a bad patch now, 105-year-old Antwerp Diamond Trade will host a three-day diamond trade fair in Belgium in February next year, offering widest possible range of polished diamonds to an exclusive group of diamond buyers.

Most probably, Surat’s diamond traders will take part in this big event in a big way as they expect better times for the diamond industry in the coming days.

The fair will feature 43 Antwerp diamond firms, while a list of about 120 European jewellery firms had been selected to attend the fair as buyers.

Antwerp is the world’s number one diamond trading hub for polished diamonds. More than 50% of the world’s polished diamonds are traded here. No other center but Antwerp, and in particular the Antwerp Diamond Bourse, is able to bring under one roof a bigger and more varied selection of polished diamonds.

The fair organisers noted that the diamond bourse believed that it had to become part of a growing number of invitation-only exhibitions aimed at high-end diamond, gem and jewellery buyers.
