Jewellery & Gem ASIA Hong Kong brings together 1,300+ exhibitors from 19 – 22 June 2025 at HKCEC
Jewellery & Gem ASIA Hong Kong (JGA) is gearing up to welcome thousands of trade buyers from around the world this June, offering abundant mid-year opportunities for product discovery, sourcing and partnerships, show organiser Informa Markets Jewellery announced today. JGA is taking place from 19 to 22 June at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). Buyers may skip the long queues onsite by pre-registering online between now and 11 June.

With 1,300+ exhibitors representing 30+ countries and regions, the B2B jewellery and gemstone buying event is uniquely positioned as Asia’s premier summer meeting place for major product debuts and bold ideas, said Celine Lau, Director of Jewellery Fairs at Informa Markets Jewellery.
“The June show offers exceptional buying opportunities for wholesalers and retailers looking to fulfil urgent orders or stock up for the second half of the year – be it loose diamonds, coloured gemstones and pearls, finished jewellery, packaging, equipment & tools and industry-related technologies,” Lau shared. “More importantly, due to its strategic timing, JGA is the perfect venue for suppliers to inspire and energise the industry with their latest collections in between seasons. The show does not only keep buyers attuned to market trends but also prepares them for the world’s largest B2B fine jewellery sourcing destination in September – Jewellery & Gem WORLD Hong Kong (JGW).”
JGA will introduce three standout attractions: The groundbreaking Orient Odyssey 2.0 pearl exhibit (Stand 3M260), a dedicated Gold Jewellery Pavilion and the announcement of the Finalists for the Sustainability Awards 2025 by JWA (Jewellery World Awards).
Launched at JGW last September, Orient Odyssey 2.0 is a new iteration of the curated space celebrating the “Queen of Gems.” Exclusive to the iconic Hong Kong fair, OO 2.0 will present a wider variety of pearl exhibits and interactive elements, offering buyers the opportunity to journey into the world of pearls without ever leaving the show floor. Initiated by Informa’s Jewellery & Gem Knowledge Community, the featured showcase is supported by the biggest names in the pearl industry, led by Platinum Sponsors Autore, Jewelmer, Paspaley Pearling Company and Rio Pearl.
Another highlight is the Gold Jewellery Pavilion. This zone is a hotspot for cutting-edge trends and advancements in gold jewellery production and design, illustrating the endless possibilities achievable with this precious medium.
On the green front, Informa’s Sustainability Awards 2025 by JWA will reveal the finalists at the JGA Media Gathering set for 19 June. The winners will be officially announced in July and honoured at an Awards Presentation Ceremony during the JGW Fair Reception on 17 September at the HKCEC.
JGA will also host panel discussions and exhibitor-led sessions. Among the key events are dialogues on “The Rise of the Eco-Friendly Luxury Consumer” on 19 June and “For the Love of Pearls: A Millennial and Gen Z Affair” on 20 June.

BlueStone-backed Ethera launches ‘Akshaya Tritiya Edit,’ designed for Life Beyond The Festival
The Sanskrit meaning of Akshaya Tritiya, the two words, holds a lot of importance. “Akshaya” means “Eternal”, and the term “Tritiya” signifies the third day of the illuminated half of the Vaishakha month.
BlueStone-backed Ethera, the lab-grown diamond jewellery brand, is marking this Akshaya Tritiya with a fresh perspective on festive buying, shifting the focus from one-day purchases to jewellery designed for everyday life. With its “Akshaya Tritiya Edit,” rooted in Ethera’s modern design language, the collection brings together pieces that are minimal yet expressive, meant to be worn across different occasions.
Ethera is working to shift the festive buying narrative in India, traditionally driven by ritual, where many consumers opt for gold coins as symbolic purchases, valued for investment but rarely worn. The brand positions jewellery as a more practical alternative, combining long-term value with everyday usability.
As consumer preferences evolve, Ethera has noticed a shift toward pieces that integrate into daily life. Rather than remaining stored away, jewellery is increasingly chosen for wearability and versatility. In this context, Ethera’s lightweight designs and lab-grown diamonds offer the same visual appeal as natural diamonds in formats suited to regular use, supporting the brand’s philosophy of “wear what you love every day.”
Spanning rings, earrings, pendants, and wristwear, the Akshaya Tritiya Edit features clean silhouettes, refined forms, and lightweight designs crafted for everyday styling. From solitaires to contemporary clusters, each piece can be layered, revisited, and lived in beyond a single occasion.
Commenting on the initiative, Nitesh Jain, Co-founder, Ethera, said,“India’s jewellery sales crossed Rs. 12,000 crore during Akshaya Tritiya last year. Which is amazing, but what interests us is what happens after, the life a piece goes on to have. Does it stay locked away, or does it become part of your everyday? At Ethera, we design with that second life in mind. Jewellery should feel effortless to wear, because the real value of what you buy isn’t defined by the day you bought it, but by how often you choose to wear it after.”
Observed as one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu and Jain calendars, Akshaya Tritiya will be marked on Sunday, April 19, this year. The day is believed to bring enduring prosperity and good fortune, making it an ideal time for new beginnings and meaningful investments. Among its many traditions, buying jewellery, especially gold, continues to hold deep cultural significance as a symbol of wealth and security.
Building on this mindset, Ethera encourages consumers to explore fine jewellery that balances design with practicality. With lab-grown diamond pieces across accessible price points, including 9KT gold options, the brand makes it easier to choose jewellery that fits lifestyle and budget.
Adding a layer of personal expression, the collection offers customisation across gold purities, 9KT, 14KT, and 18KT, and finishes ranging from classic yellow to rose and subtle white gold. The result is jewellery that adapts to your mood, your style, and the many versions of you.
For the festive period, Ethera is offering up to 50% off on making charges and 20% off on diamonds, making it easier for customers to invest in pieces that hold value beyond the occasion.

As Ethera continues to strengthen its presence in everyday fine jewellery, this Akshaya Tritiya underlines its intent: jewellery isn’t for a day, it’s meant to be lived in, every day.
