The UK's import of statuettes and ornaments plated with precious metal is forecasted to increase steadily from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 1.0175 million kilograms in 2024, the volume is anticipated to reach 1.1559 million kilograms by 2028. In 2023, the actual volume of imports was slightly below the starting figure for 2024.
