Online retailer Amazon said its December 2004 jewelry sales soared more than 120 percent from the same month a year earlier and the triple-digit growth has continued in 2005.
Customers are buying rings, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, watches and even body jewelry such as the best-selling belly bar by Paris Hilton, Amazon said.
Perennial favorites remain heart-inspired jewelry, diamonds and pearls, Amazon said.
The online retailer said customers could find more than 1,000 ruby jewelry items at prices ranging from $100 to more than $15,000, including a wide selection of heart-shaped rubies.
Amazon said it also sells a large selection of diamonds, including diamond studs starting at $40 dollars and an 11.5 carat invisible set diamond bracelet for $25,599.
