Strong sales have been reported by a Welsh company that makes gold jewellery.

Clogau Gold revealed that sales were up 15 per cent year-on-year following analysis of the final three months of 2008, Retail Jeweller reports.

In a climate of rising gold prices, managing director of the brand Ben Roberts explained how the firm keeps on top of costs.

"We're marketing harder and the supply chain is working more efficiently than ever. We've put pressure on our suppliers to ensure delivery times are met and prices are competitive," he said.

Mr Roberts also noted that the company has increased its marketing operations lately.

Furthermore, he explained that although the brand has adapted to new materials it will continue to produce traditional designs.

Last year Clogau Gold produced two sets of gold cufflinks for Welsh rugby legends Gareth Edwards and Gareth Thomas, which were presented to the sportsmen at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff.
