Past and present statistics and future estimates of jewelry market (USD 1= JPY 76.72)
“Jewellery market is bottoming out, and about to start growing in Japan. It has been identified from the survey that the jewellery industry, fortunately, has been recovering quickly, contrary to the prediction right after the disaster.”
“Polished diamond imports in 2011 made a 22.3 percent leap in actual exchange rates. Japan's diamond buyers took a turn for higher value goods after the country was hit with a triple disaster in March 11. Imports averaged $400.52 per carat in 2011, 40.4 percent above the average import value in 2010 and clearly outpacing the average annual increase in diamonds of 17 percent.” (“Japan's 2011 diamond imports up in double digit” Feb. 2, 2012, The Art of Jewellery Online)
IReasons why Japanese jewellery market is growing* • Increase in anniversary gift-giving due to re-evaluation of love and emotional ties after the earthquake March 11, 2011 • Increase in consumption by wealthy foreign tourists such as Chinese • Increase in consumption by baby boomers from retirement allowance

The Solemn Declaration of No Inflated Numbers We consistently count visitor registration numbers clearly and stringently and, without deception, continue to release the real numbers. Fundamental Philosophy of the Totalled Visitor Numbers Three Major Principles of the Counting Method 1. The number of visitors will be stated honestly and will not be inflated. This is our duty to exhibitors. 2. The inflation of visitor numbers is a misrepresentation of the contents of the exhibition and fraudulent to the exhibitors. 3. The number of visitors and also the counting method will be stringently announced in writing shortly after the exhibition.
1. Only those who visit the exhibition and complete registration on-site are counted. 2. Once registered, a visitor is counted only once, no matter how many times and days they enter the exhibition. 3. Counting the visitors each time they pass through the entrance is regarded as an actual inflation of the figures, therefore, this counting method is prohibited.
