Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair 2025
Shines Bright, Generating Over 3.7 Billion Baht in Sales
The Department of International Trade Promotion (DITP) and the Gem and Jewelry Institute of Thailand (GIT) have announced the remarkable success of the 71st Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair, held from February 22–26, 2025, at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. The event exceeded all expectations, drawing nearly 40,000 visitors from across the globe and generating over 3.7 billion baht in trade value. This reinforces Thailand’s position as a global hub for the gem and jewelry industry. With demand surging, organizers are already preparing for the 72nd edition, with exhibition space nearly fully booked.
Sunanta Kangvalkulkij, Director-General of DITP, highlighted the significance of the event: “The Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair is a premier international trade show that serves as a key platform for buyers and traders worldwide. Held twice a year, in February and September, the 71st edition saw an expanded exhibition area to accommodate growing industry demand, featuring over 2,628 booths. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with more than 40,000 visitors—71% of whom were international attendees—driving total trade value to 3.718 billion baht, a 3.35% increase from the previous edition. The top five best-selling product categories included gemstones, fine jewelry, silver jewelry, gold and fine jewelry, and diamonds. The fair’s continued success underscores its reputation as a premier global business platform for the gems and jewelry sector.
Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana Rajakanya graciously presided over the opening ceremony of the 71st Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair on February 22, 2025. In a moment of great honor, Her Royal Highness granted permission to showcase her high jewelry creations in the special exhibition AMOUR ÉTERNEL HAUTE JOAILLERIE. This prestigious display was a highlight of the event, demonstrating the Princess’s commitment to preserving Thai craftsmanship and promoting the Thai jewelry industry on the global stage. The exhibition received an overwhelming response from visitors.”
Sumed Prasongpongchai, Director-General of GIT, emphasized the fair’s role in reinforcing Thailand’s status as a leading gem and jewelry hub: “Bangkok Gems and Jewelry Fair is a must-attend event in the global gem and jewelry industry. It highlights Thailand’s expertise as a center for gemstone enhancement and trading, as well as its world-class artisans known for their exquisite craftsmanship. The fair also offered a range of industry-focused activities, including marketing seminars, technical knowledge-sharing sessions, and the highly anticipated Networking Reception, which brought together key figures from the Thai and international jewelry industries.” The overwhelmingly positive reception from exhibitors and buyers alike has resulted in strong demand for the next edition, with most exhibition booths already reserved. Organizers are confident that the upcoming 72nd edition will be even bigger and more successful.

Precious Metals at the Crossroads – Geopolitics, Inflation, and Key Technical Levels AUGMONT BULLION REPORT
Crisis Disrupting Energy Supplies, Pushing Inflation Risks Higher, Increasing The Probability Of Central Bank Interest Rate Hikes
Safe-Haven Dynamics – Gold and Silver prices are consolidating as investors assess the possibility of U.S.-Iran diplomatic talks and the uncertain future of the current ceasefire. Both nations are scheduled for peace negotiations in Islamabad this week. However, the ceasefire came under threat on Monday following the seizure of a cargo vessel, raising doubts about whether talks will proceed as planned.
- Geopolitical Developments– The ongoing Middle East conflict has caused a significant disruption to energy supplies, pushing inflation risks higher and increasing the probability of central bank interest rate hikes — both of which create headwinds for gold prices. Adding to the uncertainty, President Donald Trump indicated he will not extend the truce if no agreement is reached before its deadline, and has stated that the Strait of Hormuz will stay closed until a deal is finalized.
- Macro-economic Signals – Markets are closely watching for clarity on whether the Islamabad talks will proceed, and if so, whether they result in a ceasefire extension or a broader peace agreement. Gold’s price direction will continue to be driven by Middle East outcomes and their downstream effects on energy costs and inflation expectations.
Technical Triggers
- Gold is trading in the range of $4750 (~ Rs 152,500) and $4850 (~Rs 155,000) from past few days. Either side breakout or breakdown will give 3-4% directional move.
- Silver is trading in the range of $78 (~ Rs 248,000) and $81 (~Rs 257,000) from past few days. Either side breakout or breakdown from this band will give 3-4% price swing.
