The sighting: Singer Katy Perry performed at the recent VinFuture Prize Ceremony, an award that honors inventors and academic researchers. Perry chose a dramatic flowing lilac gown and Anabela Chan earrings for the performance.

The jewels: Perry is wearing Anabela Chan’s Diamond Supernova earrings. The dramatic statement earrings are 18K white gold with rhodium vermeil and feature 46 ivory cultured pearls, 2 pear cut white sapphires, 18 custom shield-cut simulated diamond briolette drops, and 238 round, oval, and pear-cut simulated white diamonds.

As with all of Anabela Chan’s designs, the earrings feature only lab-grown and created gemstones. The style is listed on the designer’s website for $5,166.

The trends: Statement earrings are having a major moment, and these sizable stunners are certainly that. Their use of atypical materials (lab grown and created gemstones) is also very on trend for sustainability.

What do we think? I love this for two reasons. The first is simple: these earrings are spectacular and their over-the-top glamour is a perfect match for Perry’s flowing gown.

The second reason is that the earrings match the theme of the event! Anabela Chan prides themselves on being “the first fine jewellery brand in the world to champion laboratory-grown and created gemstones with high jewellery design, artisanal craftsmanship and a focus on ethical and sustainable innovations.”

I can’t think of a more appropriate choice to accessorize a performance at an awards ceremony for scientific innovation, can you?

Judgement: 18/10 for appropriate and gorgeous earrings that I covet immensely.

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.
