ICA Ambassador to Japan

Japan’s jewelry market recorded steady growth in 2025, with total retail sales reaching JPY 1.207 trillion, an increase of 6.8% over the previous year. Imported jewelry accounted for approximately 63% of the market, while the secondhand jewelry segment remained particularly active, reflecting continued consumer interest in pre-owned pieces. Despite the overall positive market performance, demand for top-quality colored gemstones remained relatively subdued.
