LOS ANGELES – Karalynn Sprouse, executive vice president of Emerald Expositions ASD Merchandise, Manufacturing and International Sourcing Group, has announced the launch of Jewellery Box, the industry’s first curated trade show for high-quality, on-trend jewelry at affordable entry-level to moderate price points. Emerald Expositions is the nation’s leading business-to-business trade show and conference producer.

Launching during Las Vegas Jewelry Market Week in June 2017, Jewellery Box responds to a growing need, reflected by high consumer demand for broader product pricing across all categories, including gold, silver, diamonds, fashion jewelry, gifts, handcrafted jewelry, loose precious stones and fashion accessories. The event provides a unique forum and meeting place for buyers and sellers from traditional, contemporary to the avant-garde.

"After seeing affordable fine and contemporary jewelry dominate at retail this year, we are thrilled to give retail buyers a fresh option to expand their buying power during Las Vegas Jewelry Market Week with a curated contemporary selection that directly aligns with their customers’ price point needs," said Sprouse. "As consumers seek more moderately priced jewelry, we are confident that this show will give retail buyers just what they are looking for, allowing them to take full advantage of their Jewelry Market Week experience."

Between events like JA New York, COUTURE, COUTUREtime, NY NOW and ASD Market Week, Emerald brings more than 100 years of expertise in the jewelry industry, providing a unique perspective on consumer trends and the ability to produce a focused show experience for buyers and exhibitors alike.

Jewellery Box will be Emerald’s third jewelry event to be produced in Las Vegas during jewelry market week, and its ninth annual jewelry event nationwide. Jewellery Box will be co-located with Emerald’s long-standing Las Vegas Antique Jewelry and Watch event at the Las Vegas Convention Center, and just a short one-mile cab ride from Emerald’s exclusive high-end luxury jewelry event, COUTURE at the Wynn.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
