(PRESS RELEASE) Rubies in Greenland in the Spotlight: Yes, that’s right, we are talking about rubies mined in the southwest of this arctic island in a region called Aappaluttoq (meaning “Red” in Greenlandic) around 150 km from Nuuk, the capital. These rubies are responsibly extracted, adhering to the strictest human rights, labour, environmental, mining and product disclosure practices throughout each step of the supply chain. For this reason, the mine has been recognized as the newest source of responsible rubies in the world.

FACET, a Spanish company, is considered one of the champions of sustainability in this sector and a significant driving force in responsible manufacturing. Together with Tracemark and Greenland Ruby, FACET is launching a collection of the most sustainable classic jewelry in the world with the oldest rubies to date (nearly 3 billion years old according to expert geological studies).

FACET also contributes to the PinkPolarBear Foundation, an independent non-profit created by Greenland Ruby and their partners to support all aspects of international polar research. The foundation is especially concerned with the effects of climate change on the environment, stimulating education, understanding the needs, and supporting the inhabitants of Greenland, both animal and human who are affected by the accompanying cultural changes.

“Once again, FACET takes a step forward towards a sustainable and responsible industry with a new alliance with Tracemark and Greenland Ruby. This collaboration symbolises our commitment to changing the industry towards one that is more transparent, responsible, and innovative.” — José Miguel Serret, CEO de FACET.

FIRE UNDER ICE Collection
The exclusive 27-piece collection ‘FIRE UNDER ICE’ is made up of solitaire rings, pendants and earrings with diamonds and Greenlandic Rubies as the centre stones of these pieces – completely traceable and with a Certificate of Origin – with recycled traceable gold with a CoC certificate (issued by RJC).

Thanks to the technology Tracemark offers, the end consumer can scan their QR code and obtain fully audited information about every step in their jewels and components’ journey, from extraction to ownership.

Family Legacy, New Chapter: How Wilkerson Turns 89 Years of History Into Future Success

After 89 years of serving the Albany community, Harold Finkle Your Jeweler faced a pivotal decision. For third-generation owner Justin Finkle, the demanding hours of running a small business were taking precious time away from his young family. "After 23 years, I decided this was the time for me," Finkle explains. But closing a business with nearly nine decades of inventory and customer relationships isn't something easily managed alone. Wilkerson's comprehensive approach transformed this challenging transition into a remarkable success story. Their strategic planning handled everything from advertising and social media to inventory management and staffing — elements that would overwhelm most jewelers attempting to navigate a closing sale independently. The results speak volumes. "Wilkerson gave us three different tiers of potential goals," Finkle notes. "We've reached that third tier, that highest goal already, and we still have two weeks left of the sale." The partnership didn't just meet financial objectives—it exceeded them ahead of schedule.
