On big brands like Roberto Coin, John Hardy and Mikimoto you will rarely find anybody advertising discounted prices. The reason being is these are the most prestigious brands in the jewelry industry. If you compare it to handbags, it would also be highly unusual to find an authorized Louis Vuitton dealer advertising discounts. That being said you can find some special deals when department stores have friends and family or around the Holiday time you will see some special offers from a few authorized dealers. The best advice we can give you though, is shop only at authorized dealers whether it is at www.jrdunn.com or anywhere else. This is the only way you are guaranteed to get unused genuine product and not a knockoff! Happy Shopping.
Often times we get asked which is better John Hardy or David Yurman. The best answer to the John Hardy vs. David Yurman dilemma depends on your own personal style. John Hardy’s designs are probably a bit more daring while David Yurman may lean a little more towards the conservative side. That is not to say Yurman doesn’t have very bold pieces but that is a general rule of thumb. As far as the quality goes, you are in great shape with both of them, but when it comes to attention to detail we have give John Hardy the edge. If you want to see what I mean take a look at the back of this John Hardy Palu pendant. Is that gorgeous or what!

Christina Aguilera performed on May 31st in Las Vegas for the first time after her pregnancy at the launch of Stephen Webster’s new sterling silver line of jewelry. Aguilera has always been a huge fan of Webster’s designs and when she was asked to be the ambassador for the brand she happily agreed. This isn’t the only big news happening at Stephen Webster, Terri Eagle who was the head honcho over at David Yurman and later John Hardy, is the new president over at Webster. We think the new management coupled with Christina as the spokesperson is going to be an amazing combination for the brand. What do you think?

Jewelry trends for fall and winter 2008 – We are heading into our third day at the Couture 2008 jewelry show and I’m happy to report we haven’t been disappointed at all with the jewelry shown so far.
By far and away the strongest trends we have seen is the explosion of jewelry featuring organic shapes. The pearls in particular have been spectacular, especially the large baroque pearls from Yvel in black, white and gold mixed with diamonds.
As far as the over all color trends go, things seemed to have toned down from the days when shocking pink was the rule. The stones being feature in the jewelry are leaning once again towards the classics, including black, gray, brown and even some white. Some of the most outrageous pieces we saw actually featured large black diamonds, gray diamonds and rose cut diamonds.
Some of the trends from last year like rose gold, cuff bracelets, bangle bracelets, large hoop earrings and bold gold still have plenty of life left in them. However with the price of gold the way it is, some designers have tried to create gold jewelry pieces that still look bold but are actually wafer thin. These pieces were horrible! I know the suppliers wanted to keep the prices down but the style and feel didn’t translate at all. I think our clients want quality and substance when it comes to fine jewelry.
And for those of you who love designer jewelry like we do, there are tons of new pieces coming out from the top brands. We are expanding our current collections of Aaron Basha, John Hardy, Roberto Coin and Mikimoto tremendously. We are also adding quite few new exciting designers to our lineup (we’ll let you know who they are as soon as the product is on its way). And don’t worry guys, we haven’t forgot about you! We are bringing in a ton of edgy sterling silver men’s jewelry including designer cufflinks, heavy men’s bracelets and necklaces and quite a few accessories to boot.
More updates to follow as things progress…………
Thanks for reading,
