JEWELRY EXPERTS: HOW TO TELL IF A JEWELER KNOWS THEIR STUFF
How You Can Tell if a Jeweler's Staff Knows Their Stuff
When shopping for high-end jewelry or looking for a place to have your luxury pieces serviced, it's important that you can wholeheartedly trust the jeweler's staff. You should be able to trust them to provide you with ample and accurate information concerning your jewelry and the pieces you are interested in buying. They should also trust them to care for your jewelry or timepieces with experience and confidence. Here are a few ways to determine the caliber of a jeweler's staff.
Certifications and Accreditations
There are a number of institutions that a jeweler and their staff can receive information, training, and certifications from to serve their customers best. One of the easiest ways to discern the trustworthiness of a team of jewelers is to inquire about their certifications. Ask if they've received accreditations from organizations such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) or the American Gem Society (AGS). You may also find this information on a jeweler's website.
Knowledge
There is certainly a lot to know when it comes to luxury jewelry. A jeweler's staff needs to be acquainted with a multitude of designers. They should also know the history, jewelry styles, functionality, and much more. Jewelers need to be experts so as to answer questions about your purchases and maintenance requests accurately. Test your jeweler's staff's knowledge by asking a few questions. Are they confident in their answers? Do they respond quickly and thoroughly? This can help you determine their familiarity with the subject.
Experience
While you should never discount a newcomer's ability to become a phenomenal employee or possess a great deal of knowledge about luxury jewelry, there is undoubtedly a level of expertise that comes with experience. Seek out jewelers with a staff of whom the majority have plenty of years of work in the jewelry industry under their belts. These people are typically better equipped to handle any question or request you may present them with, as well as have a wealth of understanding regarding brands, styles, and trends.
