By Adrian Lilly                              National Jeweler                           Oct. 26, 2011                       

 

Put yourself in the shoes of a first-time visitor to your store. Imagine it's a busy time: you're running a special, a sale or it's a holiday. If all of your staff are busy helping other customers, would I know where to go, so that I feel comfortable, or would I feel confused and intimidated and want to leave? >>>

The Ongoing Confusion Over the Meaning of Simulant

By Rob Bates                            JCK                           Oct 27, 2011

 

The other day, I chanced upon a press release from a site called
ecodiamondz.com that said it was premiering a "controversial video" called "Diamond Reality." I checked into the site, and at first glance, it appeared to be a seller of synthetic diamonds. But as it turned out, it wasn't. So I wrote them a note yesterday, which included this: >>>

If you've visited artisan fairs in the last several years you've probably seen Steampunk jewelry.

The malaise of the 'Millennials'

By Michelle Graff                       National Jeweler                     Oct. 31, 2011

 

In the four years I've worked here, much has been said about the generation labeled as "Generation Y" or the "Millennials" and its importance to the jewelry industry.
