Try for freeDiamonds are still a jewelry lover’s best friends, but they aren’t the only drivers of growth and sales. The innovation and evolution in marketplaces, designs and consumer expectations are helping to keep jewelry in the fashion mainstream.
The jewelry industry is evolving along the same pathway as the fashion industry, with the United States dominating the market for gold and diamond purchases, with Asia and, especially, China as a growth area. The market remains strong for jewelry of all metals, whether fitted with precious or semi-precious stones, lab-created stones or metalwork.
The quality divide in jewelry is widening just as it is with fashion. “Fine” jewelry, the top of the market, is growing more luxurious, while “fashion” or “costume” jewelry is reshaping itself through the influence of branded pieces sold directly to consumers online rather than unbranded or white-labeled pieces sold in individual jewelry stores.
One significant factor that could whet the public appetite for fine jewelry is the emergence and acceptance of lab-grown diamonds, which are less costly than their real counterparts and don’t carry the stigma of mined diamonds.

Rise Of Augmented Reality And Other Technologies
Real Customer Engagement Rings That Inspire
Sent by Blue Nile
Millennials and other tech-savvy buyers want to do their online research before heading into a store or continuing the purchase process online. Jewelry retailers who want to engage them are investing in augmented reality – online tech that tries to recreate the in-person experience with 360-degree videos, virtual try-on apps and online ring sizers and design apps to boost sales – and using email to promote their services.

Branded Jewelry Will Grow
Happy Pumpkin Spice Latte Day!!!
Sent by Alex and Ani
Branded jewelry (Pandora, Kendra Scott, Alex & Ani) now makes up about 20% of the overall jewelry market. McKinsey predicts this share will grow to 30% to 40% soon. Much of the growth comes from the sheer volume of new pieces that these jewelry brands bring to the market – akin to the rapid turnover of styles in the fast-fashion market – along with lower prices and social savvy.

Ruby Red Jewelry To Celebrate The Wizard Of Oz!
Sent by Blue Nile
Inboxes tremble under the weight of incoming email around traditional jewelry-giving events. Here’s another way to hitch your brand to the zeitgeist. Blue Nile piggybacks on a cultural event, the 80th anniversary of The Wizard Oz, to generate interest and sales. Never mind that the email promotes rubies while Dorothy ended up in the Emerald City. The ruby-red slippers make the promotion a logical tie-in.
Use Big, Bold Images
I want it. I got it.
Sent by BaubleBar
Don’t make your customers squint at tiny images on a small screen. Do what BaubleBar does: Go big, go bold. This hero image is full of colorful rings and a simple message: “Start Stacking.” Emails optimized for mobile viewing can let even one close-up fill a smartphone screen. The call to action is a real grabber, too. Better than “click here” or “buy now.”
Recognize The Diverse Audiences Within Your Customer Base
Celebrating: Month of Pride and Love 🌈
Sent by Angara
In many countries, same-sex marriage is legal. But you’d never know it from the images in most of the emails we reviewed in the MailCharts database. Study your customer demographics and see whether the ages, genders, cultures and sexual identifications match up in your emails. This Angara email, sent during Pride month, promotes a message of quality and acceptance with nary a Pride rainbow in sight, but the elegant simplicity speaks volumes.

O.M.🌲!!! Save the Amazon Rainforest!
Sent by Niche jewelry brand email idea
Niche jewelry brands have linked up with causes close to the brand’s mission. The move meshes with Millennial and Gen Z preferences for brands that align with their personal values and can help you differentiate your brand from your competitors. Pura Vida jumped on the 2019 fires in the Amazon rainforest to create this fundraiser for the Rainforest Trust’s Conservation Action Fund. This ties in with the brand’s other cause-related promotions.
