The Jewelry District Podcast

In a recent episode of The Jewelry District podcast, Victoria Gomelsky and Rob Bates characterize the 2026 Tucson gem shows as a unique "time capsule" occurring between a historic gold price surge of over $5,500 and a landmark Supreme Court ruling that struck down federal tariffs. Despite the financial volatility and the emergence of a "K-shaped economy," Victoria noted a surprisingly positive atmosphere and a surge in demand for reddish-pink gemstones. The hosts also analyzed the legal fallout of the tariff ruling, the instability of the metals market, and the industry-wide impact of the sale of De Beers on the future of the diamond trade.
