Hello. I am Shima from gemish, a natural stone accessory brand.
The price of gold continues to rise, which is a big problem for me as I use gold as a material in my work.
Although there are slight daily fluctuations, I don't think the price of gold has fallen significantly since the Lehman shock.
I was attending jewelry school during the Lehman Shock, and I remember my teacher at the time saying, "I've never seen the price of gold drop so much! Buy a lot of gold now."
The price of gold has been rising steadily since the Lehman Shock, and is now nearly double what it was at the time. Of course, the weak yen has also had a significant impact, so it is dangerous to make hasty conclusions, but it is unlikely to fall anytime soon.
I am always surprised when I see the total amount of gold chains and parts, as the price keeps increasing with each purchase.
The good thing about gold accessories is that even if you've used them, like a necklace you bought a long time ago, the price will go up. Used clothes and electronics will go down in price, but gold will go up in price.
When the world is in turmoil and there is war or economic downturn, the price of gold tends to rise. If you buy gold now, it will be a good investment in 10 years, so it might not be a bad idea to buy it now.
