Lab-grown diamonds: Price reduction does not mean that market demand is shrinking

When studying the diamond industry, price is always a very important consideration because it directly reflects the supply and demand relationship in the market. Taking natural diamonds as an example, market demand exploded after the epidemic, causing diamond prices to continue to rise for as long as a year and a half. Later, market demand fell, and at the same time, a large number of loose diamonds poured into the downstream market from the midstream, resulting in an imbalance in supply and dem


When studying the diamond industry, price, as an important indicator of market supply and demand, cannot be ignored. Taking natural diamonds as an example, the surge in market demand after the epidemic caused prices to continue to rise within a year and a half. Subsequently, demand declined, and a large number of loose diamonds flooded into the downstream market, resulting in an imbalance between supply and demand and a sharp drop in prices.


Natural diamond prices will fall sharply between Q2 2022 and Q3 2023


In the lab-grown diamond market, price fluctuations have attracted much attention from the industry, and the media is keen to report on price reductions. Although the price of the sub-2ct plate is relatively stable, the continued decline in wholesale prices still causes market concerns. However, research reports show that sales of lab-grown diamonds are increasing year by year and the market size continues to expand. Although the data is not precise enough, forecast figures such as "annual growth of 9.4%" are still emerging one after another. The lab-grown diamond market is currently experiencing both price reduction and expansion.



Daniel Scott published an interesting article in Lab-Grown Magazine, which talked about some of his views on price reduction and retail market maintenance.

01

Price reduction is an inevitable process after technology products are put on the market.



  Daniel cited two cases in the article to illustrate this point.  


The first is a flat screen TV. According to statistics from the National Retail Federation (NRF), the price of flat-panel TVs dropped by about 40% between 2018 and 2023 (as shown below). At the same time, the quality of flat-panel TVs continues to improve: clearer, larger screens, better sound output, etc.



The second is a digital camera. According to a set of data provided by Bloomberg, the price of digital cameras in the US market has dropped by about 87% since 2010 (as shown below). There are many reasons for this, including falling production costs, competition from smartphones, etc. But the market for digital cameras is still huge and has not disappeared because of this.




After technology products are put on the market, they often go through a price reduction process. When a new product first enters the market, a few “market leaders” enjoy the initial dividends. As products become mainstream, many companies flood in, market competition becomes fierce, and price wars are inevitable. Lab-grown diamonds also follow this development pattern.

02

Trust with local consumers is the key to the success of lab-grown diamond retail.



  Daniel cited an interesting example in the article.   



There is a long-established family-owned jewelry store in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, that has weathered the storm. Later, Signet's Jared brand opened a new store next to it, echoing the Kay and Zales brands in the distance. Jared and Zales use a comprehensive marketing strategy to sell extensively online and offline, including lab-grown diamond jewelry. In the face of the strong expansion of big brands, small jewelry stores seem lonely, but they survive by relying on long-term neighborhood friendship. Not only that, it has also expanded its store and launched specialty lab-grown diamond jewelry. Nowadays, small stores coexist harmoniously with surrounding big brands, each showing different styles and meeting the diverse needs of customers.

Whether it is the development trend of the technology product market at the macro level or the maintenance of neighborhood relationships at traditional retail stores at the micro level, the current situation of the lab-grown diamond industry is showing a normal and positive trend. Price cuts are not a sign of market shrinkage, but may be a prelude to market mainstreaming. At the same time, they also promote industry reshuffle and high-quality companies stand out. Therefore, as the price of lab-grown diamonds becomes increasingly reasonable, more attention should be paid to improving product quality and services to meet consumer needs. Consumer demand is the core driving force for the development of the industry. Only by keeping pace with consumers and constantly innovating can we gain a foothold in the ever-changing market and continue to move forward.
