48th Watch & Jewellery Exhibition - October 2021 Sharjah, United Arab Emirates

29th Middle East International Jewellery & Watch Exhibition is the largest & prestigious exhibition in the Middle East.

As usually we couldn't miss Hong Kong Jewellery & Gem Fair but this year was different. Because of the global pandemic and worlwidespread COVID-19 crisis the organizers decided to move the JGW 2020 from originally scheduled 15-19 September at the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre for finished jewellery to 9-13 November to an online format.

If you were to compare Baltic Sea Amber and other types commercially mined all over the world, you would find out that for example amber from Dominican Republic is usually only 14 million years old while that of the Baltic Sea often over 45 million years. Over 90% of the world's extractable amber is still located in nearby regions of the bed of the Baltic Sea.

Natural Baltic Amber is a fossilized resin thus it consists mainly of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Although not mineralized, it is often referred to as a gemstone. Now wonder, since the amber artisans are able to create breathtaking pieces of jewelry using techniques developed over generations. They put time, effort and the best handcraft knowledge to shape every item and enhance natural beauty of Baltic Amber.
