  • Three-stone engagement rings are flying out the door! Many in yellow gold or two-tone. — Jen Hollywood, J Hollywood Designs, Chester Springs, PA
  • Engagement rings under $1,500. Gold from Royal Chain. Sterling anything! — Andrew Russakoff, Russakoff Jewelers, Skowhegan, ME

  • Diamond stud earrings! Everyone loves them and you can always need bigger! — Cathy Calhoun, Calhoun Jewelers, Royersford, PA
  • We sell Gabriel gold/diamond fashion. It appeals to them because of the price and design. All age groups seem to be attracted to it, so we like to sell it as it makes it easy. — Alisha Moore, Toner Jewelers, Overland Park, KS
  • Hearts On Fire: bridal and fashion! And custom bridal. — Kim Hatchell, Galloway & Moseley, Sumter, SC
  • The biggest sellers for October were 14K gold earrings from Carla Corp. Mostly hollow hoops of different sizes. — Joe Caron, Caron’s Jewelry, Bristol, RI
  • Fire Polish Diamonds. They are 300 percent more brilliant. Everyone loves them. Greatest change in diamond cutting in 100 years. Also a great add-on to recut the customer’s diamond. — Bill Jones, Sissy’s Log Cabin, Pine Bluff, AR
  • I think it’s time that jewelers realize that men also impulse-buy! We have had lots of men making self-purchases in our INOX brand. They also have amazing blue and red line designs, which represent first responders. Prices retail on average under $100! — Stephenie Bjorkman, Sami Fine Jewelry, Fountain Hills, AZ
  • Best-selling were unique gemstone jewelry! Graziela and Suzanne Kalan were the top designers in October. Price point $500-$7,500. The age of the purchasers varied from millennials to above 60. — Elizabeth Saba, Presley Co. Fine Jewelers, San Diego, CA
  • October was a great month for selling opals and diamond bridal. We are thrilled diamonds are still preferred, and we experiencing a real boost in selling engagement rings with oval- and pear-shape center diamonds set in yellow gold! — Annette Kinzie, Leonard Jewelry, Stillwater, OK
  • We have already done well with several of the new items that will be featured in our upcoming Christmas flyer from the Berco Co. We recently added the Ania Haie line and have done relatively well with it, too. — James Sickinger, Sickinger’s Jewelry, Lowell, IN
  • We had a nice month with engagement rings. And not your typical cuts. Pear, marquise, radiant and emerald cuts seem to be popular right now. Color is slowly starting to come back and we moved a nice Mexican fire opal ring last week. — Marc Majors, Sam L. Majors, Midland, TX
  • We did great with engagement rings and matching diamond bands from Shah Diamonds’ Carizza collection. We are also doing a lot of custom work off of our Carizza alloy collection.

  • Sylvie Collection bridal, custom and Southern Gates by Cargo Hold. — Doreen Vashlishan, Werkheiser Jewelers, Bethlehem, PA
