Jewelry purchasing is significant for many reasons. Not only does it have a personal symbolism but it is also an expensive and valuable investment for most people. Customer expectations have changed, and more so during the pandemic. Customers are looking for sustainably produced jewelry items that are well designed. Hence, it is vital that jewelry manufacturers, designers, exporters, and other professionals keep up with the consumer trends in the industry. 

Turkey is one of the top ten jewelry exporters in the world. Turkish jewelry is sought after by many countries because of the historically significant jewelry tradition in Turkey. Anatolia (in modern Turkey) has been a place of jewelry production for over 5000 years. In the modern world, Turkish jewelry combines exquisite craftsmanship based on historical traditions with cutting-edge technology. 

The major countries that Turkey exports jewelry to include Iraq, UAE, Germany, Libya, Hong Kong, S.A.R., China, Israel, Qatar, Kyrgyzstan, and Romania. These are naturally big markets located across America, Europe, and the Middle East. There is great possibility to expand the export market. In fact, jewelry manufacturers hope to export jewelry worth over $ 12 billion by 2023. And going by past records, as well as the growing Turkish economy, this seems extremely possible! 

In the first 9 months of 2021 alone, the jewelry exports were worth over $ 3 billion. Additionally, the total machinery and machinery accessories industries exported over $ 6 billion worth of goods. While this includes a number of machines, a proportion of them definitely includes jewelry crafting machines. The outlook for the jewelry industry looks very promising.
