The Jewellery Show, which spotlights finished jewellery collections from all over the world, is part of the "two shows, two venues" arrangement, created this year by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) to meet growing demand from exhibitors.
The inaugural HKTDC Hong Kong International Diamond, Gem & Pearl Show opened on Monday and continues through 7 March at AsiaWorld-Expo. The new show features loose stones and raw material for jewellery.
