In 2023, the import of worked ivory and articles of ivory to France stood at 3.00 thousand kilograms. The forecasted data indicates a slight but consistent decrease in imports, from 2.9 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 2.74 thousand kilograms by 2028. The year-on-year variation suggests a steady decline of approximately 1.38% annually. This reflects a broader trend of decreasing trade in ivory products, likely influenced by increasing regulatory pressures and changing consumer preferences.

Future trends to watch for:

Further regulatory restrictions and bans on the ivory trade could accelerate this decline.
Increased consumer awareness about environmental conservation may further reduce demand.
Alternative materials in craftsmanship and art may impact the market for ivory articles.
