Lapis, a new favorite in color jewelry market

In recent years, with the promotion of several international famous jewelry brands, gemstone-grade lapis lazuli has begun to flourish in the jewelry market, and is particularly welcomed by the majority of women who love beauty.

The “beautiful consumption” of the lapis lazuli bracelet has driven demand. Two years ago, lapis lazuli was only a plaything of male collectors, and few people treated it as jewelry. But now jeweled lapis lazuli has many female fans.

“The lapis lazuli will get fired and thanks to several internationally renowned jewellery brands.” Chen Liang, head of the Xiamen Carolle jewelry, said that if there were no major jewelry brands such as Tiffany, Cartier and Bvlgari pushing, Green said. Jin Shi should still lie in the antique market.

It is reported that in the past two years, the above-mentioned several major jewelry brands have launched a lot of jewellery created by lapis lazuli, and they have whipped up a “green stone wind” in the jewellery industry, attracting the attention of many women who love beauty.

"It is 'beautiful consumption' that has driven the demand for lapis lazuli." Chen Liang said that many women like this kind of stone, mainly because their jewelry is very good for their skin color.

“In the current year, what can make a beauty-loving woman like it? Will the price not rise?” Mr. Hong, a jewellery trader, said that no one had asked him about lapis lazuli two years ago, but now from time to time someone will ask, even Many old customers also named lapis lazuli.

The higher the price is, the more people buy in China are not producing lapis lazuli, but there are many deposits in other parts of the world, especially in Afghanistan, known for their large output and good quality.

Mr. Hong said that although there are many lapis lazuli veins, there are few good ones. At least 80% of the lapis lazuli produced each year cannot reach the gem level. "So the prices in these two years have risen so far."

He took out a string of lapis lazuli beads and told reporters that its price would not exceed 1,000 yuan two years ago, and now it is sold at 3,000 yuan in the Xiamen market. If it is in the northern market, the selling price will be even higher.

Chen Liang said that he usually buys raw materials abroad and asks people to polish it. This year, the price of raw materials has risen by two waves, an increase of 30%-40%. Although this uptrend is a bit scary, the strange thing is that the higher the price, the more people buy it.

“Perhaps compared to other jewels, the price of gemstone lapis lazuli can be accepted.” Chen Liang said, but after all, lapis lazuli is still a “new recruit” in the jewellery market. According to this rise, the price will be sooner or later. Overdraft.
