According to the participants at the international jewelry fair in Vicenza, Italy, sales of yellow gold jewelry will increase in the coming year. The famous jewelry designer P. Orlandini predicts that yellow gold will become more popular among consumers throughout the globe.
Currently, the US and European jewelry markets are showing an increased demand for ancient Roman and Greek style yellow gold replicas. The World Gold Council estimates that there was a 40% increase in demand for yellow gold in March, 2007 worldwide, as compared with the corresponding time period in 2006. The increase is explained in part by the effect of the Chinese year of the "Golden Pig", which is seen as a favorable period for gold jewelry purchases.
