#JCKLasVegas delivered strong results for #diamond traders, #jewelry manufacturers, and service providers.
Demand was concentrated in higher-ticket merchandise, large diamonds, and unique pieces.
The overall outlook points to a strong year and holiday season. The one concern is the continued decline in unit sales
