Coronavirus, the strategy of Gismondi 1754

Published on March 12, 2020

The coronavirus, which has also affected the jewelry companies, explains Gismondi 1754, can be defeated with just one vaccine: diversify the sales locations. The Genoese jewelery company, for example, after the DJWE-Doha Jewelery Watches exhibition, the most important exhibition dedicated to the world of jewelery and watchmaking which was held in Doha at the end of February 2020. At the end of the exhibition, dedicated mainly to retail customers (orders for 200.000 euros), Gismondi 1754 has formalized the agreement with the Alfardan Group for the opening of a Gismondi 1754 corner at the Alfardan department store in Doha, which will allow the Genoese brand to land continuously in the Qatari market.

I want to reassure our customers, our investors and shareholders that we are facing the moment with awareness and the right responsiveness, so as not to be sensitive to the effects of the Coronavirus emergency and we are already working to put in place alternative strategies that allow to optimize and realize the opportunities that the market is offering us. The agreement with Alfardan gives us a strong impetus in a strategic country, as we will strengthen the channel with the United States. Being present in different countries in the world allows us to be able to move with elasticity and be reactive in receiving market signals, comforted by the appreciation of customers and dealers who increase the demand for our jewels at the level of individual regions.
Massimo Gismondi, CEO of Gismondi 1754

Gismondi 1754, which is a publicly traded company, is also keen to reassure its investors and stakeholders that it has already planned a contingency plan to support turnover for 2020, being able to estimate today a foreseeable decrease in the revenues of the Portofino seasonal shop and that of Milan which, despite being closed from 25 February in compliance with the decrees issued by the Government, in the first two months of 2020 recorded an increase in sales of + 226% (44,010 euros), compared to the same period of the previous year.

The plan provides for the hijacking of part of the stock of stores in Italy in the US market, intensifying the American sales network (air blocking permitting). At the same time, although the Company had established in its business plan to make online sales operational since 2021, given the current situation, the management team decided to immediately accelerate the plan for putting the collections online, starting the negotiation for the sale of products on international digital platforms in order to make the e-commerce service operational already by spring 2020.
Finally, the data from the Saint Moritz store were very good and, although closing a week in advance, between January and 10 March 2020 recorded + 34% (equal to sales for 90,546 euros), compared to the same period last year.

Molto buoni, infine, i dati del negozio di Saint Moritz che, pur chiudendo con una settimana di anticipo, tra il mese di gennaio e il 10 marzo 2020 ha registrato +34% (pari a vendite per 90.546 euro), rispetto allo stesso periodo dello scorso anno.

Who is Sat Hari, the designer who made Brad Pitt fall in love

Published on October 13, 2019

The fascination of Indian philosophy and alternative medicine in Amrit’s jewels, by Sat Hari. Here’s who is the woman who fascinated Brad Pitt ♦ ︎

She went for India and never she is returned. Or, better, she came back but stay connected to the charm of the great Asian country, where for years she has studied the symbolism of precious stones. The blonde American designer Sat Hari Khalsa, 50, after a long period of youth training in India, which began when she was 18, returned to the States and founded Amrit, a name that in ancient Sanskrit indicates the water of eternal life, the nectar of the divine. Not before, however, having traveled the world together with a rock band as a holistic healer.

But the last adventure is the one destined to be more in the spotlight: the relationship with Brad Pitt. According to the Daily Mail weekly, the actor and designer would have met in 2018, during an event organized by Anthony Keidis, frontman of the Red Hot Chili Pepper, to whom Sat Hari Khalsa would have been a spiritual guide. In short, it is not surprising that Amrit aims to offer jewels linked to a mystical philosophy of life. In India, Sat Hari (which is the Indian name he adopted) fell in love with gems, jewels and ancient symbols and now creates his own collections with these references. Do not think, however, that they are Indian style jewelry. Amrit proposes jewels that, apart from some elephant figures that appear here and there, are absolutely of Western taste, with massive use of gold and precious stones, starting with diamonds.

US squeeze on the import of stones and jewelry: it could have a huge impact on the gold industry ♦

Export alarm for Italian, French, Spanish, Indian, Chinese suppliers and jewelers … In short, for everyone. The siren at full volume and the flashing red light lit up after the news, bounced from the USA, of a meeting between the representatives of New York of the State Department of the United States with some great jewelery operators. There are no official statements at the moment, but it is good to take note of what is unofficially whispered.

In essence, the United States would have decided to request greater traceability by origin or origin of each item of jewelry imported into the United States, including gold, diamonds and precious stones.

No component, according to what would have been said, is excluded. Official objective: to combat money laundering and trade in gold and stones that are not ethically correct, ie useful for subsidizing criminal or terrorist activities. In the viewfinder there is, in particular, the Kimberley Process, a system designed to control the licit origin of diamonds.

But there are also those who think that the greatest severity translates actually in a wall against imports. The controls, in short, would end up reducing the volume of jewels or elements such as chains, closures and imported stones, given that many jewelers will not have the tools to accurately certify every single element of a jewel. According to early comments, anonymous, by US jewelers, the measure will have “a huge” impact on the jewelry industry.

In the meantime, suppliers and jewelers were however invited to follow the Clean Diamond Act, the World Diamond Council’s System of Warranties and the Kimberly Process. Federico Graglia

The incredible jewels of Paula Crevoshay in an exhibition at the Museum of Los Angeles ♦ ︎

What is the difference between jewelry and art? In the case of Paula Crevoshay, none. She is a designer but, more correctly, a free spirit that working with gold and precious stones. The result is jewelry to watch and admire.

The Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History has decided to dedicate an exhibition dedicated to Paula Crevoshay (7 December 2018-12 May 2019).

The exhibition is titled Art of the Jewel: The Crevoshay Collection and includes 54 works by the artist-goldsmith, including earrings, bracelets and brooches, next to the museum’s preserved gems and minerals. The combination is not accidental: the exhibition intends to tell the road that runs through the raw ore that turns into a jewel. And those of Paula Crevoshay are truly unique jewels. Also because the designer started working as a painter and engraver before moving to jewelry. The result is his unique pieces, rich in gems, which are small wearable sculptures. An example: the Montana Bitterroot brooch uses almost 300 pink sapphires extracted in Montana (USA) of a particularly rare type and accumulated over the years. Cosimo Muzzano

The Pandora’s apology

Published on December 13, 2016

news

A employee insensitive and a customer humiliated: so Pandora apologized for a gaffe.
We tell this story to mean two things: the first is that a good (or bad) service in a jewelry store counts a lot for customer satisfaction. The second thing is that a gaffe can become viral if disclosed on the network and can fall like a hammer on a brand.
Here’s the story: a woman in Tennessee was derided by an employee of Pandora to purchase an engagement ring from $ 130. Her name is Ariel and McRae wrote a Facebook post telling the bad experience. When buying the ring, silver and cubic zirconia, the employee of the store turned to her and to her husband and said, “Y’all can you believe that some men get these as engagement rings? How pathetic.” Ariel and her husband were offended and humiliated. Ariel has also hinted at an answer: “It isn’t the ring that matters, it is the love that goes into buying one that matters”. The post with the story became viral: it was shared by almost 100,000 users and shared more than 56,000 times. The story was then picked up by some big American newspapers. Ariel, however, preferred not to make the name of the insensitive employee, explaining that she did not want to fire anyone. But he said that Pandora has offered an apology, as well as offer a bracelet free as compensation. Alessia Mongrando

Princess online for Roberto Coin

The Princess Flower collection by Roberto Coin in 250 shops Usa with Ritani platform.
There is always a first time. It’s knew also by Roberto Coin, which has chosen for the first time the distribution of its jewels with so-called clicks-and-bricks option. That is, a mixed system between online and physical store. The passkey for the Italian Maison in this innovative way of selling is called Ritani, a store of jewelry, especially engagement rings, which you can buy and then pick it in one of 250 affiliated stores in the United States. The difference with a simple online purchase is that the customer is able to evaluate the jewel when he goes to take it away, and, if not satisfied, can return it to sender. Apparently it’s also the best way to hook the people of Millenials, young people who do not enter in a jewelry or feel uncomfortable. By partnering with Ritani, Roberto Coin is now able to reach a wide range of customers through e-commerce platform, which boasts a high level of user traffic.
Brian Watkins, who has worked with big US retailers such as Nordstrom and Blue Nile, before becoming president of Ritani in 2011, argues that a growing number of customers begin their shopping online jewelry, but only 10% agrees to buy on web: a jewel is a demanding choice and who spends the money wants to touch and see before completing the purchase. With the ability to choose online and then contact a store, the perspective changes.
As for Coin, the partnership involves the sale of 40 new pieces of Princess Flower collection, with a price range from 660 to 16,000 US dollars. Federico Graglia

Chopard has denounced the disappearance of 53 jewels worth 15 million dollars. According to the complaint filed July 18 in New York, the story goes back to February. The driver of a van of Ferrari Express, a company responsible for bringing the jewelry to wear to the celebrities on the red carpet of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, has seen fit to leave the car parked at night, along with the precious contents. The van was promptly stolen. Farewell jewelry. But the problem is that this is not the only case: Chopard seems targeted by misfortune.

Always the Swiss Maison boutique in Place Vendȏme, in Paris, in February was steal. Loot: 8 million euro. A very unusual case, as has happened in the heart of Paris, a super area supervised. And, moreover, it is the second: five years ago, in the same store were stolen other jewelry to 6 million euro. On the other hand, in 2015, it was steal the Chopard store in front of the Elysee, also in Paris, but this time it’s pocket change: 1 million euro.

The superstitious people are allowed to think about the evil eye.
