Polished-diamond sales. Polished diamonds get sold to manufacturers for jewelry manufacturing. The
sales are transacted either directly by cutters and polishers or through dealers. Antwerp is the key polished
diamond sales center, and all major diamond players maintain a presence there. Most of the polished gem
sales also take place in Antwerp, but recently the site of sale is shifting closer to jewelry manufacturers in
India and China, with many companies opening regional offices.
