We are OPEN! Gems On Display is considered an essential business!

Dear Valued Customers,

To all of our valued customers, during these difficult times Gems On Display will stay open to provide the essential packaging supplies required by our varied customer base.


Please be aware that we are operating on a skeleton crew at our distribution center as most employees have been directed to work from home where possible. We will process your orders as expediently as possible, while giving priority to those serving in critical industries.


To maintain the safety of our employees, suppliers and customers all government guidance is being followed as directed.


Gems On Display is considered an essential business by the State of Ohio due to the following provisions:

  • Workers supporting groceries, pharmacies and other retail that sells food and beverage products
  • Employees and firms supporting food, feed, and beverage distribution, including warehouse workers, vendor-managed inventory controllers and blockchain managers
  • Workers who support the manufacture and distribution of forest products, including, but not limited to timber, paper, and other wood products
  • Manufacturers and distributors (to include service centers and related operations) of packaging materials, pallets, crates, containers, and other supplies needed to support manufacturing, packaging staging and distribution operations

Most importantly we hope the best for you and yours as we all work together through these difficult times.

Rick Girona and family,

2 Display Arrangements You NEED To Check Out

Before a customer even sets foot in your store, the first things they see are your window displays. These displays need to reflect your business, but sometimes a theme can get stale. I (like many others in the Jewelry Biz) love to explore options I may not have considered previously. Specifically, I enjoy putting an amazing signature look together. Achieving this signature style does not have to cost a fortune. In fact, IÔÇÖve crunched the numbers here for you and offer some exciting options for your next display and packaging arrangement.

  • Black Leatherette With a Coordinating Box

I am in LOVE with the modern style I see sprouting up in my shops and local restaurants. Less is becoming more in this ever evolving fashionista driven world. What better way to make a statement with the sleek and humble black leatherette line? This collection offered by Gems On Display can be found HERE.

To make a cohesive display arrangement, itÔÇÖs best to have a dimensional depth to your window displays. I personally recommend the 189-2L (BK).

This display is such a statement piece. The gentle curves and fantastic base are SO characteristic to the modern style. This display should be a SPECIAL display for a SPECIAL piece. The quality is felt in the hand on this display as well, VERY well put together. Overall, itÔÇÖs a remarkable display.

Necklaces usually pair with a set of earrings, bracelets and more. For the front of the arrangement, I recommend the 210-A, 218-2AL (BK), and the 252-3 (BK). 

These displays have a pleasant and tasteful height variance. Gorgeous overall, and easy on the pocket book. An arrangement like this only costs around $60.

The arrangement doesnÔÇÖt end there though. How will your customers take home their new statement pieces? Fortunately, Gems On Display offers a WIDE variety of jewelry boxes. I would recommend either the Classic Model Series, which is a simple leatherette box. ItÔÇÖs a timeless classic. These boxes just DONÔÇÖT go out of style. If you want something a little more versatile though, a cotton-filled box is a great route to go as well. Both box styles have the option of custom printing, which adds that finishing touch to the entire arrangement. 

Overall, the modern display style is a great route to explore for someone who wants a timeless feel. 

  • Linen Displays, Wooden Displays, and Kraft Boxes

Summer-time fun-time. Who hasnÔÇÖt heard that in the jewelry making industry? I like to pair my summer time jewelry themes with cream colors or a natural wooden display. Gems On DisplaysÔÇÖ natural wood displays compliment the linen displays perfectly. To create a physically appealing display arrangement, I start with larger more statement displays either in the back or at the shoulder of the set. The PERFECT displays for this are: 101024 N, 101006 N, and the 181N LE.

With these 3 displays you can easily accent your statement pieces. The natural color of the wood and linen displays pair perfectly with tans, teals, sea foam, cyans, dark reds, and nearly every beach color scheme. 

As far as your front-most display arrangements, I really love keeping with that color theme. If I am displaying bracelets or earrings, there are a couple of options to explore from there. You can easily display earrings with a simple t-bar earring stand (ED-2401N-LE) and if I have any bracelets, I like to reiterate the wooden organic theme with another wooden bracelet ramp (383554 N).

Overall, this is an arrangement that you can tuck away for the season, and then re-use for the next summer-time season easily. These displays are sturdy as well as fashionable. As long as they are stored in a cool-dry environment, the materials stand the test of time very well, and overall are very easy to rework into a new display arrangement. For example, the wooden themed displays are not limited to a summer time theme. These wooden displays pair well with the white leatherette collection. With an arrangement like that, you can easily build a winter wonderland themed display arrangement that really turns head.

Summery

Your displays are your own. They need to reflect your individual and unique style. More so than that, a lasting theme is an investment. One display arrangement tastefully put together and gently used can last well over a year. The returns will speak for themselves.

Making an Online Sale! Close the Deal!

Running a successful business online takes time and effort. It is important not only to invest time, but also important to invest an online presence. What better way to create an online presence than to invest in a memorable and affordable display arrangement? With online sales currently on the rise, now is the time to invest a little more into your Etsy business with one of our amazing and suitable jewelry displays. What are the benefits to investing in an arrangement like this?

  • Converting a BROWSER to a BUYER

Conversion rates are everything to a successful online business. In fact, browsers can end up COSTING your company money! How does one covert the tepid browser into a loyal customers? One word: PHOTOS! A breath-taking photo is the only way a browser can interact with a product without the important tactile interactions.

There is an EASY fix for that barrier. Give them a photo they can touch with their eyes.    Our burlap and linen lines are perfect compliments to creating this effect. These collections are very wide and reasonable. Arrange your products respectfully on any of our beautiful jewelry displays. This brings us to our next point.

  • Arrange Your Products Respectfully

How does one project an air of respectability with photos? One way to do that is to store and display them in a way that demonstrates their value. What better way of showing this then with a modern bust or storing them in a wooden tray? Many of our busts project a feeling of respectability WITH a respectable price. Our quality is sure to impress not only you, but also your customers.

It is clear that a jewelry display is so much more than JUST a display. They are a means of converting a browser to a buyer.

Gems On Display – YouTube

Any jewelry maker knows the value of a good picture in marketing. A picture can more accurately and captivatingly show the facets of their rings, necklaces, watches, and more than even the most poetic of descriptions could. Even further, with branding and logos tastefully placed, the picture can help express style and signature touches, and leave the customer with a positive impression of the product and the people behind it.

Truly, thereÔÇÖs a reason they say ÔÇ£a pictureÔÇÖs worth a thousand wordsÔÇØ.
