  • Cellini, New York’s Premier Jeweler and High Horology Salon, Celebrates New Flagship Opening

    Cellini, New York’s Premier Jeweler and High Horology Salon, Celebrates New Flagship Opening

    Cellini, a New York landmark and one of the world’s leading independent jewelers, will celebrate the grand opening of its new Park Avenue flagship store on Tuesday, May 15th.  Located at 430 Park Avenue, the spacious and luxurious new store will open its doors at 4:30pm for an intimate press preview of the new space and opportunity to speak with Cellini Founder and President Leon Adams, followed by a private reception from 6pm-9pm.

    The grand opening event represents only the latest chapter in the 40-year history of Cellini. The impressive new location echoes the grandeur of the store’s beginnings in New York City, when Leon Adams opened his first showroom in the famed Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in 1977. It was here that Cellini established its reputation as New York’s premier jeweler.

    In its new, expanded Park Avenue flagship, Cellini retains the impeccable quality, elegance, and gracious service that have long defined this independent store, translated into an inviting and immersive new location. The new flagship invites guests to explore a world-class collection of jewelry and gems, along with an unmatched selection of rare timepieces from more than 30 of the world’s top watchmakers.

    “Our goal is to offer the very best in one location, so our patrons can compare and discover jewelry and watches that they simply can’t get anywhere else. And if our customers don’t see the jewelry they are looking for, we are equipped to make it for them. We have access to some of the rarest gems on Earth: diamonds and gems of all shapes, sizes, and colors. We regularly create Cellini signature jewelry pieces incorporating these important gems, tailored to meet and exceed our customer’s dreams,” remarked Leon Adams.

    Visitors to Cellini can marvel at a multitude of lustrous pearls and some of the most prized gems on Earth, including an extremely rare, radiant-cut chartreuse diamond. Color stone enthusiasts can choose from important gemstones like Burmese rubies, Kashmir sapphires, and color-changing alexandrite, then work with Mr. Adams and the Cellini team to select or design a jewelry setting that best complements the gem’s most scintillating attributes. The extraordinary scope of the store’s collection extends beyond Cellini’s signature creations to exceptional pieces crafted by some of the world’s top jewelry designers. The array of designs offers something to satisfy every taste, from the Old-World craftsmanship of Carrera y Carrera and Wellendorff, to the modern artistry of Pippo Perez, Sutra, Fabergé, and Victor Velyan.

    As Cellini’s reputation grew through the years, so too did its phenomenal horological collection, which includes historic watchmaking maisons such as Girard-Perregaux, Jaeger-LeCoultre, and Vacheron Constantin. Many watchmakers got their start in America at Cellini, including A. Lange & Söhne, De Bethune, Laurent Ferrier, and Richard Mille. Budding aficionados in search of their first fine timepiece appreciate the opportunity to compare so many different brands. Meanwhile, savvy collectors prize the unmatched selection of rare watches on display, including rare Swiss timepieces from Bovet. During the grand opening event on May 15th, Cellini will debut the new Bovet Recital 22 “Grand Recital” for the first time in the US, along with rare timepieces from Greubel Forsey and Urban Jürgensen.

    “Quality is foremost in everything we do at Cellini,” remarked Adams, a statement that defines the next chapter for Cellini at its new Park Avenue flagship. Irresistible jewels, sophisticated horology, dedicated staff, and an inviting new venue ensure that this venerable New York jeweler will redefine the standard of quality on Park Avenue.

  • Hong Kong Recovery Boosts Jewelry Sales

    Hong Kong Recovery Boosts Jewelry Sales

    Sales of jewelry, watches and other luxury items in Hong Kong rose in the first 11 months of 2017 as tourists returned and local consumer sentiment recovered, the city’s official data authority said.

    Retail sales for the category grew 5% year on year to $8.49 billion (HKD 66.35 billion) for the January-to-November period, Hong Kong’s Census and Statistics Department said in a statement Wednesday. November proceeds jumped 8% to $783.1 million (HKD 6.12 billion), it added.

    Sales across all retail products rose 1.8% for the first 11 months, and climbed 7.5% in November, reflecting the “visible growth in visitor arrivals and the [optimistic] consumer sentiment during the period,” a spokesperson for the Hong Kong government said.

    Hong Kong’s luxury retail sector is largely reliant on purchases by tourists from mainland China. A slump in visitors from that location hit Hong Kong’s retail industry over the last two to three years, with sales of jewelry and other luxury items sliding 17% in 2016. However, the tourist sector recovered this year: Visitors from mainland China rose 3.6% from January to November, to a total of 40.2 million, according to the Hong Kong Tourism Board.

    Meanwhile, the total number of tourists arriving in Hong Kong from all locations jumped 7% to 5 million in November compared with the same month last year. During the first 11 months of 2017, the figure climbed 3.1% to 52.9 million.

    As a result, Hong Kong jewelry retailers saw significant improvements in their 2017 performances. Chow Tai Fook’s same-store sales jumped 9.5% in Hong Kong and Macau in the six months ending September 30, while Luk Fook recorded 13% growth in retail sales for the same region.

    “The near-term outlook for retail sales remains positive, as consumer sentiment is buttressed by the favorable employment and income situation, and as inbound tourism continues to recover,” the government spokesperson noted.

    The upturn in 2017 also affected the diamond trade, with imports of polished stones into Hong Kong growing 7% to $14.07 billion in the first nine months.

     

  • Baselworld to halve exhibitor numbers in 2018

    Baselworld to halve exhibitor numbers in 2018

    Baselworld, the world’s leading show for watches and jewellery, will halve its exhibitor numbers and shorten the show’s duration by two days in 2018.

    The exhibitor numbers in 2018 are expected to be around 600-700, compared to around 1,300 this year. The prices for stand rental will also be lowered by -10%, the organizers revealed.

    Baselworld said the decision to reduce the number of exhibitors and length of the show is a result of market consolidation in terms of marketing and production and the challenges of digital technology.

    In a statement, Baselworld said: “Baselworld remains faithful to its strategy of quality and diversity. However, the watch and jewellery market is undergoing a period of profound change. Baselworld 2018 presents itself in a denser and more concentrated form in several respects.

    “Baselworld has decided to maintain its outstanding quality for the next edition. The show does not rely on quantity, but will remain the leading event for premier global brands. And this in all segments.”

    According to the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry, Swiss watch exports fell by -9.8% in 2016 – their second consecutive annual drop.

    “The environment confronting the Swiss watch industry remained difficult throughout the year 2016. Demand for personal luxury goods fell, especially for the most expensive products. Timepieces therefore had to contend with changes in the choices made by consumers who are increasingly interested in the notion of experience associated with the world of luxury and less in shopping as used to be the case,” said the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry.

    Baselworld is scheduled to take place from 22 to 27 March 2018.
