The Gold Expressions 2005 grand launch in the Middle East will be held on June 25 via a Press conference followed by a "Buyer-Seller Meet" from 1pm till 10pm at Madinat Jumeirah. On June 26, at 8pm there will be a Gala Night, which will feature a fashion show displaying the most amazing jewellery pieces.

"This year, there are 69 participating goldsmiths who created stunning collections of gold jewellery in an effort to help elevate the jewellery design around the globe including the Middle East. Dubai, specifically has become the second largest importer to Italian jewellery after the USA. The Gold Expressions jewellery pieces are all original, yet marketable. We are confident that with the new gold jewellery forms, lines and trends, we will be attracting the international press and buyer," said Moaz Barakat, Managing Director of the World Gold Council.

The Gold Expressions pieces are a reflection of the latest socio-cultural preferences as they were projected according to research on the core gold-buying consumers in each of the main gold markets and their motivation for purchasing gold jewellery.
