DIAMONDS RULED THE red carpet this year as usual, but when there were colored stones, they lit up the faces of the actresses who wore them. Color continues to be a trend in the design studios —not just your traditional gems, but also beryl, spinel, aquamarine, kunzite, morganite and fancy colored sapphires. For the Critic’s Choice Awards, Gal Gadot wore Tiffany & Co. earrings in green beryl, diamond and morganite, while Carey Mulligan wore Cartier High Jewelry’s tourmaline, colored sapphires, and diamonds to the 2021 Oscars. Both looked stunning in dare-to-be-different styles.

It Was Time to Make a Decision. It Was Time to Call Wilkerson.

Except for a few years when he worked as an accountant, Jim Schwartz has always been a jeweler. He grew up in the business and after “counting beans” for a few years, he and his wife, Robin, opened Robin James Jewelers in Cincinnati, Ohio. “We were coming to a stage in our life where we knew we have to make a decision,” says Jim Schwartz. He and Robin wanted to do it right, so they called Wilkerson. The best surprise (besides surpassing sales goals)? “The workers and associations really care about helping us move out own inventory out of the store first. It was very important to us.”
