Citing industry data, the company official said 22-karat gold jewellery accounts for 70 to 80 per cent of the market while 24-karat gold comprises 15 to 20 per cent. Less than 5 per cent of jewellery sold in the country are gemstone and diamond pieces. Data from Metals Focus also revealed that Malaysia produced the most gold jewellery in 2024 at 34.2 tonnes compared to other jewellery producers in Asia. By comparison, gold jewellery fabrication in Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and Singapore in 2024 reached 24.6t, 22.4t, 13.9t and 3.9t, respectively. Chiah said there are approximately 4,000 gold shops nationwide while Penang has the highest number of gold jewellery manufacturing facilities in the country. Malaysia uses both traditional and innovative manufacturing techniques such as CNC and laser engraving, and 3D printing to create diverse designs that incorporate Chinese, Malay and Indian aesthetics. “We are also developing lightweight designs, matching jewellery sets and personalised jewellery items to align with market trends,” he noted. Gary Karabulut, export manager at Turkish gold chain specialist Mioro, also attested to increasing demand for more delicate pieces with less gold. What is selling now are uniquely designed, electroformed hollow chains like bracelets and necklaces, he noted. The Gemological Institute of America defines electroforming as a method of adding a thick gold plating, sometimes as thick as 200 microns, to a wax, resin, ceramic, or organic material base. This year, Mioro unveiled electroformed gold jewellery sets inspired by motifs such as the Year of the Snake to attract Chinese customers. Karabulut said price-conscious buyers are on the lookout for lighter but sophisticatedlooking items. Technology According to Chow, manufacturing technology, specifically for pure gold jewellery, has improved a great deal over the years. Alloying is a popular method to produce hardened gold. “With hardened gold, we can create more intricate designs. Another critical development is hardened gold plus electroforming. Electroformed pieces can be made bigger but remain light,” explained Chow. Gold prices from September 2015 to April 2025 2015年9月至2025年4月的黄金价格
