For Brands, this means that your international exposure to the right buyers is virtually unlimited. For Retailers, it means that you will always be on top of the hottest international trends—trends that are set around the globe. Today’s high-end consumers travel, and their tastes often reflect what they see in cities as diverse as London, Paris, Tokyo, New York, Rome, Dubai, Beijing, Rio, or Madrid. Not only will you be able to anticipate these trends, but provide your sophisticated clientele the Brands they want.

Along with IJ’s focus on international distribution comes the ability to provide an international perspective on the luxury jewellery industry—and it’s a focus we take very seriously. As this issue goes to press, I am in China for an international conference—but more about that in the next issue. While China is usually thought of as a supplier of jewellery (of all qualities), its domestic market is potentially one of the world’s largest consumers of fine jewellery. This fact has not gone unnoticed by the large luxury groups that have already established a foothold in the nation, with more high-end Brands moving into this dynamic market every month.

To provide you with an international perspective, we feature trends from around the world and the designers who are setting these trends. We are bringing back our signature “Trends & Colours” section, showing the latest designs and the hottest colours of the seasons, as well as a new “In the Press” section highlighting the jewellery that is being worn and talked about by celebrities. “Success Stories” takes a look at successful retailers around the globe, what they are doing to remain that way in these challenging economic times, and the Brands they carry. And we are not stopping there. International Jewellery will also continue bonus distribution at the world’s most important international fairs, such as the three editions of Vicenza, Couture in Las Vegas, BaselWorld, and Hong Kong, among others.

Put it all together and the new International Jewellery is your single source for what’s hot and what’s not—from an international perspective to your own hometown. All my best for a profitable summer.
