THE Orhopa show on its third day September 19, witnessed fewer visitors; despite of which, exhibitors said they were happy as they received many quality buyers. Indian exhibitors said they received many enquiries regarding supplies of loose diamonds, precious and semi-precious coloured stones. However, few visitors were interested in Indian jewellery.

The show was considered moderately successful, by both the exhibitors as well as the organisers. Some exhibitors are willing to come back next year, and a substantial number of them have already pre-registered. jaipur Exports, the sole Indian exhibitor participating independently outside the India pavilion, reported being happy with the show and plans to participate in 2007.
