In 2023, the United States natural diamond exports stood at a significant market position. The forecast from 2024 onward shows a consistent decline, with exports decreasing from 2.91 million carats to 2.26 million carats by 2028. This declining trend represents a year-on-year reduction, highlighting specific economic, geopolitical, or technological factors influencing the diamond industry.
