antwerp's other great mainstay is the diamond trade that takes place largely within the diamond district. 85 percent of the world’s rough diamonds pass through the district annually, and in 2011 turnover in the industry was $56 billion. the city has four diamond bourses: the diamond club of antwerp, the beurs voor diamanthandel, the antwerpsche diamantkring and the vrije diamanthandel. antwerp's history in the diamond trade dates back to as early as the sixteenth century, with the first diamond cutters guild being introduced in 1584. the industry never disappeared from antwerp, and even experienced a second boom in the early twentieth century. by the year 1924, antwerp had over 13,000 diamond finishers."" since world war ii families of the large hasidic jewish community have dominated antwerp's diamond trading industry, although the last two decades have seen indian and maronite christian from lebanon and armenian, traders become increasingly important.
