The gemstone market is gaining renewed attention as investors increasingly look beyond traditional financial instruments in search of scarcity, resilience, and long-term value.

Specifically in the UK, demand for gemstones is projected to reach USD 4.1 billion by 2026, with London continuing to play a central role as a global hub for gemstone trading, auctions, and certification, shaping pricing and investment trends worldwide.

And as interest grows, investors are increasingly focused on whether gemstones can function as credible investment assets rather than purely luxury goods.

On The Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Danilo Giannoni, Founder & Director, Arte Oro, to explore the investment case for gemstones, the risks involved, and what this market means for investors globally.
