In the 1980s and 1990s, Israel was the world's major producer of polished diamonds, successfully leveraging low labor costs and traditional diamond-cutting knowledge. Today, the hum of the polishing wheels is mostly silent. The bulk of the business has moved away -- to India, China, Russia, Vietnam and Africa. "There has been a globalization of the production process," says Udi Sheintal, managing director of the Israel Diamond Manufacturers Association. "Today, the diamond dictates where it is going to be polished." Sheintal notes that manufacturers produce the stones where it makes most business sense, and this depends on the size and quality of the raw material. "The production of polished diamonds has moved eastward, mostly to India," says Steven Benson, founder of Market Direct Business Communication, a media consulting company working with the diamond and jewelry industry. artisan jewelry trade shows - Bookshelf
