Haute Jewels Geneva 2022 Heralded as a Huge Success

The event attracted many of the world’s top jewelry buyers and members of the press. Some brands reported orders that exceeded what they had achieved at Baselworld. After two challenging years where the jewelry industry has been unable to meet in person, the joy and excitement at reuniting was palpable.

CEO of Yoko London and Event Founder Michael Hakimian said, “the 2022 edition of Haute Jewels Geneva was an unequivocal success. We feel the triumph of this show marks the start of an exciting new chapter for the jewelry industry. Smaller trade events comprised of likeminded brands can deliver a more targeted, luxury experience which is more enjoyable and beneficial to both the brands and the visitors. We look forward enthusiastically to the 2023 edition of Haute Jewels Geneva”.

The event delivered what was promised from the outset; a luxurious, intimate environment for jewelry brands to conduct business in. The Fairmont Grand Hotel Geneva provided the perfect setting, with opulent surroundings and 5-star service.

The event offered a variety of exquisite jewelry from the designers’ latest collections, featuring exceptional pearls, diamonds, gemstones and timepieces. Each exhibitor was invited as a top expert in their specific field, showcasing the best of what the jewelry industry has to offer.

Haute Jewels Geneva took place at the Fairmont Grand Hotel Geneva, from 30th March – 5th April.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
