Leather
Leather remains a popular material in the jewellery industry, prized for its versatility in bracelets, necklaces, and mixed-media designs.

Jewellery Focus provides detailed coverage of the leather jewellery segment, from product launches and design trends to insights on supply chain practices, sustainability issues, and market opportunities. We also report on business strategies for retailers and wholesalers looking to maximise sales of leather accessories within their collections.
