Although rings are the most widely sold jewelry articles, necklaces and earrings are also very popular. Tourmaline and
peridot accent this coordinated suite.
Alice pointed out the highly polished gem. “It’s a ruby,” she said. “Isn’t the
color lovely?”
“Yes, it is,” Diana replied warmly. “But I’ve never owned a ruby. I’m sure it’s
much too expensive.”
Alice knew that this was a specific price objection that she couldn’t ignore. She
also knew that a good way to turn a price objection around is to emphasize
value.
“Actually, this ruby is an excellent value,” Alice said.
“Really?” Diana replied. “What makes it an excellent value?”
“The finest rubies are faceted, natural, and untreated,” Alice replied. “And
you’re right, they’re rare and very expensive. But this ruby is a cabochon and
it’s also heat treated. It has the look of a fine-quality ruby, but it actually reduces
your cost in two ways.”

“Yes,” Alice replied. “A cabochon is less expensive than a faceted stone. And

As Diana paused to consider this, Alice unlocked the case, took the necklace
out, and laid it carefully on the counter pad. Then she suggested, “Here, just
try it on.”
Diana took the piece from Alice, draped it around her neck, and turned to let
Alice fasten the clasp. As Diana turned back around, Alice adjusted the counter
mirror so they both could see the necklace.
“Oh, the color is perfect for you,” Alice said. “Don’t you agree?”
“Yes, I like it very much,” Diana replied. “But I’ve been told to be careful with
some of my other jewelry—that gems can scratch or fall out of their mountings.
Can that happen with this ruby?”
“Ruby is the second hardest gem after diamond,” Alice replied, “so unless
you abuse it, it won’t scratch. And a high-quality bezel setting like this is
unlikely to fail. But if it does, it’s guaranteed—we’ll repair it free.”
Satisfied with Alice’s responses to her concerns, Diana smiled to herself as she
turned back and forth to admire her new necklace in the counter mirror.

Bracelets
• What is one of today’s most popular bracelet styles?
B racelets are among the earliest
personal adornments. • Which bracelet types are rigid rather than flexible?
Bracelets are among the earliest adornments. In ancient Egypt, men and
women frequently wore gold bands or twisted gold wire on their wrists and
upper arms. Early bracelets were often decorated with figures of snakes or
sphinxes.
Bracelets remained popular until the fall of the Roman Empire (476 AD), when
the long sleeves worn in the Middle Ages (476 AD to 1517 AD) sent them into
obscurity. Bracelets didn’t become fashionable again until the 1800s.

Charm bracelets are still popular today. They’re easily customized by the wearer, who can add
charms to celebrate important life events.
Charm bracelets are decorated with one or more small ornaments, or charms,
which might be beads or cast metal figures, and are sometimes set with cultured
pearls or gems. Many bracelets come with the charms already attached, but
some allow the wearer to buy charms separately and add them.

• What factors have influenced earring design and use over the years?
• Which earring types are popular today?
Earrings come in many shapes and sizes, and these face-framing ornaments
have been part of every culture. Earrings of ancient Greece—some representing
boats, animal heads, or supernatural figures—are especially fine examples of
classical design. Over the centuries, earring design has changed many times
in response to fashion and hairstyles.

Demonstrating Jewelry
To build value, it’s important to demonstrate the jewelry rather than merely
show it. You should involve your customer in the demonstration by letting
her try the jewelry on. Give her a mirror so she can see how it looks. If looking
at the stone or stones through a loupe or microscope helps, give your customer
access to those tools.

to elicit agreement. She steered Diana toward a piece with an expensive look and greater value
than her garnet earrings, but that wasn’t likely to be so expensive that Diana
wouldn’t be able to buy it. After identifying the stone pendant and its setting,
Alice emphasized the emotional value of Diana’s potential purchase. She did
this by asking, “Isn’t the color lovely?”
Alice had restated the benefit of the ruby’s red color, then asked Diana a
question designed to get her to agree. This is called a tag.
Alice then touched upon value, talking about affordability only when Diana
mentioned price. She built the enhanced ruby cabochon’s tangible value by
comparing it to what she knew would be a very expensive untreated ruby.
She used her product knowledge to firmly establish the cabochon’s value and
to convey the fact that Diana was getting a fine-looking ruby at a good price.
To reinforce the necklace’s emotional value, Alice helped Diana try it on.
Finally, when Diana raised questions about the jewelry’s durability, Alice used
her product and store-policy knowledge to overcome those objections.

If your customer falls in love with an inexpensive jewelry piece instead of the one you
expected, respect her choice. Building a relationship with the client is more important than a
single sale. She might buy a much more expensive piece next time.
You’ll be most successful when you sell each piece on its own merits. Don’t
fall into the trap of negatively comparing one piece with another or one
gemstone with another. If your customer shifts her buying attention to a
comparison piece that you’ve already portrayed negatively, you’ve lost any
chance of a sale.
Unless price is so high that it removes a piece from consideration, price is less
important to a customer who understands the emotional and tangible value
of the jewelry. With your product knowledge, you can help her see that she’s
getting good value for her money.
You might want to suggest that she consider a harder stone like pink sapphire
and explain why. This way, you can gently steer your customer off the wrong
course and onto one that will both fulfill her mission to buy and register a
good sale for your store. In the end, it’s likely your customer will be grateful,
return for future purchases, and recommend you to others.
