CRACKING THE CODE

It’s been 30 years since
jewelry supply company
Kassoy launched a division
dedicated to labels
and barcodes. In that
time the category — and
Kassoy’s inventory — has
evolved considerably. To
mark the three-decade milestone, the company
released a catalog
dedicated to its extensive
label and barcode offerings.
Included in the
16-page supplement
are new full color logo
tags, printers and scanners,
plus technology
that didn’t exist when
the division started, like
RFID (radio frequency
identification) inventory
products. kassoy.com

METAL MASTERY

Manufacturer and wholesaler
Jewelry Innovations
developed novel
metal alloy Serinium
and just received a patent
for it from the U.S.
Patent and Trade Office.
Serinium is described by
its creator as the “Precious
Contemporary Metal” and identified by
its bright white color that
doesn’t tarnish, change
color or shape. Men’s
designs are already widely
available in the material
and bridal and fashion
designs for women are
slated to become available
in the third quarter
of this year. jewelryinnovationsllc.com


IT’S IN THE BAG

Keeping an engagement ring safely out of
sight until it’s time to pop the question can
be almost as nerve racking as the proposal.
Scott Kay introduced a Proposal Pouch ring
keeper to help keep the ring hidden until the
big reveal. The microfiber pouch in Scott Kay’s signature purple color is provided at
the time of purchase and will protect its precious
cargo wherever it’s hidden away.

KEEP RINGING

Ringly, the jewelry
brand whose wares are
infused with technological
functions, has added
a category to its line-up,
plus enhanced function.
After starting out with
semiprecious gemstone
rings that vibrate or light
up to notify their wearers
of incoming phone messages
and calendar notifications,
the collection now includes bracelets.
The bangles also send
details about the number
of steps users take in a
day. ringly.com


TV PREMIERE

Jewelry professionals
know about the International
Gemological
Institute
and now the
organization has plans
to raise its profile among
consumers, too. A new
television ad campaign,
which will air on channels
including Fox News,
MSNBC, CNBC, CNN
and HLN, positions IGI
as a trusted authority
that provides reliable diamond
reports and helps
consumers buy with confidence.
The broadcast
ads direct consumers to
“insist on IGI before you
buy.”

Bridal is big business
for most jewelers and
Stuller has created a

on the (highly unlikely)
chance you’re looking for
something that isn’t in

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.
