Gem Faire has operated as the West Coast’s most established touring gem and jewelry show for over 38 years, bringing a reliable circuit of gem dealers, jewelry vendors, and mineral suppliers to cities across California, Oregon, Washington, and neighboring states. Each weekend show features 75 or more exhibitors offering loose gemstones, mineral specimens, beads, findings, finished jewelry, and lapidary supplies. The $7 weekend pass provides excellent value for buyers who can attend multiple shows throughout the year as the circuit returns to regional venues on a regular schedule.

For wholesale and volume buyers, Gem Faire offers practical sourcing advantages that complement major destination shows. The touring format means fresh inventory rotates through local markets regularly, and many Gem Faire vendors maintain wholesale pricing tiers for buyers who purchase in quantity. Bead strands, cabochon parcels, rough gemstone lots, silver jewelry components, and crystal specimens are consistently available across the circuit. The shows attract a mix of established dealers and smaller independent vendors, creating opportunities to discover unique inventory sources alongside familiar wholesale suppliers.

The long-running Gem Faire brand has built strong vendor loyalty, resulting in a consistent exhibitor base that buyers can rely on show after show. West Coast retail operations, lapidary clubs, and jewelry designers use the touring schedule to maintain regular stock replenishment without the expense of traveling to national shows. Checking the Gem Faire website for the current touring calendar ensures buyers can plan visits to their nearest upcoming shows and coordinate purchases across multiple stops throughout the year.
