A taste of the district

Jongno 3‑ga Jewellery Street

Seoul·South Korea·Gold

Jongno 3-ga is Korea's jewellery district — a kilometre of alleyways where the whole trade sits in one place: grinding, designing, making and selling across more than a thousand shops. Retail and wholesale run side by side at prices well below the rest of Korea, the entire chain worked on the same street. These are the forms gold and fine jewellery take here, sourced on Amazon so a taste of the trade can travel home.
