Our partnership with both venues is harmonious as is our dual diamond publications. A buyer’s interests may be aligned to man-made verses mined diamonds, or vice versa, and our two magazines focus on each form of diamond exclusively, proudly offered in high visibility sections of these shows. In America, diamond jewelry ranks in the top three forms of tangible adoration. The other two being flowers (on the low end) and romantic get-a-ways on the upper tier. And, self-gift giving remains on the rise. Jewelry is historically the “safest” gift. Flowers wilt and die, and finding the time to plan and travel to anywhere desirable is challenging for any busy person - let alone a couple. The potential of having a newborn, a young child or children to contend with doesn’t make a mini vacation any easier to manifest. Diamond jewels to the rescue. While LGD pricing concerns keep hitting the headlines, Dan Scott addresses such in our April issue. This Carbon feature is focused on the month of March and the dynamic duo of two specific jewelry trade shows. JANewYork Spring (March 10-12) and JIS Spring (March 17-19) provide a rare breed of “cash and carry” in the world of wholesale jewelry events.
