Rough diamond trade fair strongly attended

The Rough Diamond Days that took place this week in the Antwerpsche Diamantkring were once again a great success. Some 65 exhibitors traded large amounts of rough diamonds to national and international diamond dealers.

After the impressive success of the first Rough Diamond Days late last year, the Kring organized the second edition of this trade event that focused exclusively on rough diamonds. Organizer and Chairman of the Antwerpsche Diamantkring Freddy Inzlicht: “A wide range of rough diamonds were on offer during this two-day trading event, so everyone could find what he was looking for. But above all the personal contacts boosted the confidence level, which is something that many traders can use in these difficult times.”

The exhibitors were very pleased with how the fair went. It welcomed in excess of 2,500 potential buyers over the two days. In addition to the many Belgian diamond dealers, a large number of foreign delegations from India, the United States and Israel were also on hand.
