Whether you are an avid collector or seller of jewelry, one way to make sure you are showcasing your necklaces in the best way possible is with the use of necklace display racks. These are jewelry display tools that are used to show multiple necklace pieces at once. They come in different forms and materials, and this article will show you the different types.

1. Tree Displays

If you’re looking for something functional and also decorative, a tree display is your best bet. Made to look like miniature trees but without the leaves, these types of jewelry display lend an earthy, organic feel to any room or shop. Its “branches” are perfect for hanging necklaces and bracelets.

Think of this as your personal Christmas tree, but with jewelry as its trimmings and decors.

2. Easel Displays

Another necklace display type that’s worth trying is an easel display. Similar to a painter’s easel, this one is designed to hold up necklaces in an upright angled position. Lightweight and sturdy, one easel can carry up to six necklaces. It also comes with adjustable height pegs at the back. This makes it an ideal tool to bring at trade shows and artisan markets. It is also a popular choice for a jewelry shop’s storefront display and an avid collector’s personal home use.

3. T-Bar Displays

With posts that resemble the letter “T,” this particular necklace display gets its name for its appearance. It is a dependable rack meant to carry not just necklaces but also other jewelry items that hang like bangles and bracelets. Be careful though not to overload it too much to maintain your display’s neat appearance.

4. Plank Displays

You’d be forgiven if ever you mistake this one for a bookstand. A variation of the easel display, this one showcases the necklaces in a horizontal line instead of vertically. This makes for an excellent tabletop display at your home or as a shop and trade show display device.

Things to Bring for Your First Jewelry Artisan Market

Make this one a great experience for you and your business.


A busy street market scene.

While a lot of artisan markets were shut down and festivals had to reschedule their events this year, it never hurts to be prepared ahead of time. Take this break as a chance to plan out your strategy and make yourself ready once the jewelry industry allows public events again.

For now, you may start building up on your jewelry portfolio and readying your jewelry display tools so you’ll have everything you need once operations resume. But before you do, here’s a list of what you need to prepare when joining jewelry artisan markets.


Before everything else

Depending on the theme or market, the event organizers may conduct a screening process to evaluate your products. You may also be interviewed about the creative process that went into your chosen merchandise. Other requirements may include business permits, business insurance, as well as your tax ID number. Again this will vary depending on the program and event’s location.

If you pass this stage you need to be ready with the following items:

Display essentials

*Tables and chairs are optional. Some organizers will provide them during the event, others won’t. Likewise, canopies may be provided depending on location or theme. It’s best to check first with organizers regarding these items.

Floor-length table cloth - This item serves two purposes for you: as a place to set your merchandise and as cover to hide any items you store under your table.

Signage - For branding and identification purposes, have marketing collaterals (which should include calling cards, brochures, and flyers) with you

Lights - While there will be for sure house lights provided especially if the event’s conducted indoors, you need to bring extra display lights so you can highlight your pieces. Don’t forget to bring extra bulbs and extension cords for emergencies.

Mirrors - These are useful things to have in your booth as buyers can check and try out your jewelry merchandise.

Booth props and backdrop - Make sure your store is pleasant to look at so that people will come to admire and buy your items. Don’t forget to bring in art materials such as scissors, tape, glue, markers, and paint to make your design vision for your booth possible.

Jewelry display tools (racks, risers, pads, dishes, etc.) - Besides your merchandise, these are the most important items to bring with you at an event like this. Using the appropriate display props will showcase your jewelry in the best way possible and make them attractive to potential buyers.

We have a ton of jewelry display and storage containers ready for you to explore on our site, so why don’t you give Nile Corp a visit today?


Financial essentials

Cash box/register - This will again depend on the organizers, so check first their provisions for each booth occupant.

Credit card processor/QR code scanner - Some people will definitely prefer to go cashless so have these tools with you, if possible.

Receipt books - Some people may prefer to have it done the old fashioned way. This also helps in keeping track of sold merchandise.

Inventory list - Helps you keep track of sales, merchandise, and props.


Health and hygiene items

Alcohol or hand sanitizers - Health is wealth, especially nowadays so have these items ready for your staff and customers.

Food - Again, this one’s availability will depend on the organizer but just to be safe, you can bring in snacks and drinks to keep you from getting hungry during the event. Be careful though that you don’t create a mess in your booth’s display.

Personal items such as tissue, medicine, etc. - Events such as this can last the whole day and you will need things that will bring you comfort and relief.


...and the most important items to bring

A pair if earrings and a pearl ring on a platter.

Your jewelry merchandise, of course. This is your chance to show off your craft to potential buyers so make sure you have enough to present. It helps to think of a cohesive theme ahead so that your display will make sense to the public. It’s best to plan out your display scheme for this event so you’d know on the day which one goes where. Before we forget, remember to bring in labels, tags, and signs to indicate your items’ prices.

Good luck!

A Guide to Engagement Rings and the Best Ring Boxes for Them

A helpful guide to make sure you’re doing the right thing.


Close up of a ring-wearing hand.

So you’ve finally decided to propose to the love of your life...are you fully prepared to face the next challenging step? We’re not talking about marriage because you need to buy an engagement ring first! As always, you can count on us here at Nile Corp to give you helpful advice on jewelry display techniques as well as jewelry shopping. We know that choosing an engagement ring can be pretty stressful so we put together this helpful guide to make the process a lot easier for you. We also believe that first impressions last and we want to make sure your proposal starts off on the right foot with our recommendations for ring boxes.


1. Decide on the shape and band beforehand

You can easily narrow down your selection when you have these two elements down pat. Try to find out the shape and band that your significant other may favor by observing the usual jewelry that he/she wears. You can also browse online and learn about the different diamond shapes (also called “cuts”) to see your options. Take note that diamonds are priced depending on their shape and carat so you need to take those into consideration too.

For the love of your life, our Flocked Velvet Dome Shaped Ring Box* in Red is simply the perfect choice. Set in the color of passion, this makes for an elegant and appropriate pick for this monumental event in your life as a couple.

2. Try to explore alternatives to diamond

You don’t have to necessarily follow the tradition of going with a diamond ring. Factors such as budgets and personal taste make other gemstones as possible alternatives to diamonds, so feel free to explore these options as well.


3. Make sure to get your partner’s ring measurements

While getting your partner’s measurements can be a bit tricky, it is definitely an essential part of the ring shopping process. With a bad fit, the ring is at risk of slipping off if it’s too loose or getting stuck around the finger. Remember that this is no other ordinary ring you are purchasing so make an effort to find the correct size.

Just as you should be clear with your partner’s measurements when shopping for rings, a Velvet Ring Box* is also a clear, no-fail option amongst ring boxes for its classic elegance. Fitted with white satin cushioning inside, this is a classy companion for any beautiful ring of your choice.

4. Think about how the ring will look when worn with the wedding band

Normally, the engagement ring will be topped by the wedding band so take the time to consider how they would like side by side each other. It makes sense to have the same type of wedding band so that the pair will complement each other.


5. It’s best to take your ring shopping offline

While the internet is a great starting point to browse possible styles, we recommend to take it offline during the actual selection and buying of the ring. Doing so will help you avoid fakes, plus having an actual jewelry consultant to help you make the purchase will make the process a lot easier.

Sturdy, practical, and dependable, wood can be a metaphor for the strength of a couple’s relationship. A Solid Wood Ring Box* is a wise pick for its high-quality craftsmanship. Topped with a rosewood finish and lined with leatherette, you simply can’t go wrong with this choice.

Choosing the right ring for a loved one can be a serious business, but so is choosing the right jewelry storage tool. Make sure you’re getting only the right display and storage compartments by visiting and exploring the Nile Corp website.

Pink ribbons and beads; white buttons

Whether you’ve dipped your toes into jewelry making to keep yourself busy during quarantine or you plan to turn it into a money-making venture, it helps to acquaint yourself with the rules of the craft.

Learn to produce great outputs by knowing the basics of the trade.


1. Choose one type of jewelry to work on in the beginning

When it comes to jewelry you certainly have a lot of options that it’s easy to become overwhelmed. Like any other discipline or art, it helps to keep yourself focused. Choosing to focus on just one type of jewelry to work on will help you familiarize yourself with the craft. Perhaps you have a particular interest in bracelets or maybe your earring display stand feels bare and you’d like to fill it up with new pairs – whatever you pick to work on first is ok. You’ll have plenty of time, later on, to work on other jewelry types and materials.


2. Learn what you can about what goes into creating your chosen jewelry

To make sure you’re doing things correctly, you can start by watching tutorials online. Thankfully, the internet is a treasure trove of information so you wouldn’t have a hard time finding how-to guides. A good place to start is Skillshare where there’s a ton of jewelry making classes to choose from.


3. Have the right tools on hand

Your online jewelry design lessons won’t just teach you the craft but it will also share with you what are the right tools to have. You probably already have some of them at home but it will certainly help to invest in the necessary materials. Our shop, Nile Corp, also offers jewelry making tools as well, so please do stop by our site to browse.

4. Putting your ideas to paper (or onscreen) will help

The creation process starts in the mind during visualization. But if you want to actually see your concept, you need to sketch it on paper or onscreen, whichever medium you prefer. This helps you add, tweak, and see your idea before actually creating it.


5. Look for inspiration

If sketching isn’t getting you anywhere perhaps you’re lacking the inspiration needed to get you started. Look around you and find the shapes, colors, and textures that capture you. This can be done online and offline so feel free to explore.

If finding inspiration remains elusive, don’t let this setback stress you out. The last thing you need is to pressure yourself to come up with anything. Rest and relax for now and let ideas flow later.


6. Make sure to take measurements

It’s never a good idea to do things on the fly, and the same goes for jewelry making. Guesswork will lead you nowhere, so don’t forget to take measurements before diving into the creation process. Seeing your work worn by others is a source of pride for any creative, so make sure the jewelry you’re making will fit its wearer.

7. Practice makes perfect

Cliche as this advice may be, if you want to be good at something then this is the only way to go. Constant repetition of a craft helps hone your skills so you might as well take the time to practice it whenever you can. It might be hard in the beginning but you’ll soon see yourself improve. Just remember to follow your lessons and do it whenever you can.

Good luck!

Brightly colored gift boxes and ribbons.

For safety reasons, many avid shoppers choose to remain inside their homes and rely on e-commerce sites for their needs. This is good news for many jewelry entrepreneurs as sales continue to run smoothly even with the imposition of lockdowns. Shifting to online-only selling is a good thing, however, there are also challenges that both small and established jewelry business owners may face.

How to Make Video Marketing Work for Your Jewelry Business

Stay ahead of the curve and make a splash online with videos.

An outdoors video shoot with an actress as lead.

Innovation in any shape or form is essential nowadays. As the competition to stand out gets fiercer, one must not be complacent. This is true whether you are an online-only shop or a brick and mortar. How does one set out to do that? You go where the people are and at this point in time, it’s nowhere else but online.

As more and more folks stick to doing their shopping on the internet, any jewelry business that wants to succeed must find ways to capture this audience. Video marketing is just one of the many ways they can try. We’ve seen social media boom the past few years with giant brands tapping the platform to expand their reach and sales. All of sudden, it takes more than having retail and jewelry display skills to capture the public. While jewelry entrepreneurs are still expected to take the time to make sure their merchandise looks nice in person, our present-time needs call for having a strong presence online as well. Let us show you how you can benefit from doing so:

Provide valuable content

Many marketing professionals would tell you that, “Content is king,” and that is absolutely true. In many ways, being able to provide fresh and relevant content to your target audience is one of the primary means to win the online marketing game. It puts your name out in the public and establishes you as a reliable source of information. You will then come to be known as a trusted name in the industry. Video marketing could be used for these efforts. With the right topic, presenter and technique, you tap into the public’s consciousness which translates to better recognition and sales for your brand.

Deciding what type of video content to put out is entirely up to you and there are certainly plenty to choose from:

1. Product presentations
Think of these presentations as an online version of those late-night shopping commercials you see on the television before you drift off to sleep. Of course, you can now jazz them up with better graphics and a presenter that caters to your target audience. Even short-form videos like Facebook & Instagram stories and the currently popular TikTok app are formats you can use for this project. Just remember to provide a direct link to the product’s page (accessible via a swipe on Stories) so that viewers can purchase your items right away.

2. Reviews
You can approach this type of content in two ways. You can invite influencers to create videos where they talk about your products, or you can actually tap your actual customers to review your products.

3. Tutorials
A great number of video content online is comprised of tutorials. That’s because they are popular to the public and are considered valuable content. This is also a good angle to take when brainstorming content for your jewelry business. You can give fashion tips on the best ways to wear your jewelry merchandise, or you can also provide helpful advice to jewelry fans on the proper ways to display their jewelry collections. You can partner up with a jewelry display and supply store to help with the instructional material for these tutorial videos.


Use it as a platform for community engagement

Once you have decided on the type of content to put out, you need to make sure it does not only answer your target customers’ needs but that it also becomes a way for you to build a relationship with them. This can be done through social media where community engagement is encouraged. Take the time to see what you’re audience is saying and use it to listen and respond to their needs.

This means that for every how-to video or IG story you put out, you need to make sure you are ready to respond once the public takes notice of them.


In conclusion,

Video marketing is a powerful tool that, when done correctly, can deliver sales and recognition to any jewelry business. Don’t be afraid to use it and experiment with its capabilities to see where it takes you. Whether you’re a home jeweler or already an established name in the business, you have nothing to lose if you use this marketing approach.

5 Must-Do’s When Joining Jewelry Trade Shows

An essential checklist for every jewelry entrepreneur.

Groups of business people engaged in conversation at a trade show.

While it may take some time for normal operations to return in the jewelry industry, it never hurts to beef up on the knowledge necessary to run a successful business in the meantime. This includes knowing what needs to be done if you find yourself part of a jewelry trade show.

Besides knowing how to market yourself with fellow jewelers and suppliers, a lot of the work needed in trade shows involves presentations. To capture your targets, you must know the right way to display your jewelry merchandise.


Survey your assigned space before doing anything else

Just to be sure you have the right amount of merchandise and jewelry display equipment for the event, you need to see the space that will be allotted for you. This will depend on the size of the venue and the number of participants. Typically, you will be given a table or two to display your products. Good tabletop display tools to bring for your exhibit are display busts and the multiple tiered-type ones, like the one shown below.

Have a system for how you’re going to be displaying your items

The aim is to attract potential customers and partners into your booth so your best bet to achieve that is to create a jewelry display that’s neat and pleasing to look at. That starts with keeping a display that just has the right amount of merchandise on top. A display that’s too crowded will look messy while one that looks sparse would look like you didn’t prepare for the event at all.

Likewise, it is important to be mindful of sizes and proportions when combining jewelry together. Putting small, delicate pieces on holders that are too big for them may cause them to get drowned out. Also, when combining jewelry pieces, a good tip to follow is the Rule of Three. It is a design principle which states that visually, people gravitate towards groups of threes so you may want to apply this rule with your displays.


Make sure to apply the right lighting techniques

You would want the lights to hit your jewelry in the perfect place so that they sparkle and shine. Again, depending on the house lights you may want to bring in lights that will enhance the beauty of your products. The right lights (we recommend LED display lights) at the right angle will definitely do wonders especially if you are showcasing stone jewelry pieces.


Choose your background patterns well

The colors you include in your jewelry display can certainly affect its appearance. You may want to use patterns sparingly, if at all, as they can take attention away from your jewelry collection. Neutrals and solid shades are safe as it would make your jewelry pop. The texture you use for your displays can also give off and leave different impressions to its viewers. Silk gives off a sophisticated vibe, while those that come in natural fabrics like burlap convey an earthy appeal.


Be personable

Now, this advice has nothing to do with setting up your jewelry display, but it is an important thing to remember nonetheless. Trade shows require interacting with the public, and whether they are customers, suppliers, or artists, you need to remember that you must convey a friendly and professional demeanor to everyone you meet. People are sure to come to you with questions so it is important that you are able to answer them adequately. Lastly, remember your manners and always have a ready smile on hand.

While you’re still young, it helps to have a system for how you store and display your belongings. This is especially helpful once you’ve gotten a room of your own as you can easily locate your things when you do. From the clothes you wear to the gadgets you cherish, having a designated place for them will keep things organized and your parents off your back. Naturally, because we are Nile Corp, let us help you find ways to organize your accessories. In this article, we’ll show you some tips on how you can use jewelry display and storage tools for your precious collection.

Let your choice of jewelry display tool reflect your personal style

For young women, their bedrooms serve not just as places where they sleep, they also function as canvasses that reflect their personal style statements. From their choice of linen to their picks for furniture, the things one finds in a teen girl’s room often show the personality of the owner.

While they are useful for keeping and maintaining your jewelry collection, jewelry displays also serve as decorative pieces. Naturally, you would want them to match your room’s style.

Here’s one that’s perfect for the girly girls:

We also have mannequin-type holders for the fashionistas, as well as eco-friendly jewelry displays for the budding environmentalist.


Make sure to keep them neat and dust-free

A little brushing here and a little bit of gentle wiping there ensures your displays are kept clean and orderly. Avoid letting them gather dust by neglecting to clean them as it will diminish the beauty of your collection. You don’t need to buy expensive cleaners either as a soft cloth dipped in water with mild detergent will do.

Create themed areas around your room based on colors or pop culture

If you’re really keen on making your jewelry displays a talking point amongst your friends when they come over, why not do something extra for your collection by arranging them based on a certain theme? You can choose to highlight particular colors or go for a certain aesthetic to emulate.

Here’s another cool idea – why not look to movies for inspiration? In this article, Sirin Kale of Vice talked to production designers for some of the most iconic teen movies about their inspiration for their characters’ bedrooms. You can take a cue from these folks or revisit your favorite movies to get ideas for your jewelry displays.


Make sure to store away your hidden jewelry well

It’s not a good idea to have your entire jewelry collection on display. You better keep away from prying eyes your most expensive valuables as well as the family heirlooms you’ve inherited. You can choose to keep them hidden in a safe or stash them away in locked jewelry boxes. If you go with jewelry boxes, make sure to look for ones that come with compartments and covered in soft fabric lining to protect your delicate stones and charms.


Happy shopping!

Consider your hair length and style when deciding between sizes

A tiny downside to wearing hoop earrings is that they can get easily get tangled up with big hairstyles, particularly those with larger hoops. Think carefully about the hairstyle you plan on wearing before you decide to put on your jewelry. If you want to try something big and bold, it’s best to have your hair tied back or placed in a bun.

Experiment with styles depending on the occasion

The wide range of sizes available when buying earrings affords you the opportunity to explore various styles and effects. For a subtle look perfect for daily wear, go for “huggies” which are small hoop earrings that “hug” your earlobes as they are made to cling close to your skin. For date nights or parties, why don’t you go for something more dramatic, like studded hoop earrings?

Health and Hygiene Essentials You Need for Your Jewelry Shop

These are the tools you need in the new normal.



A pair of hands washing under a faucet.

Feeling at a loss about your jewelry store’s chances during the pandemic? Wondering how you should go about the new health and hygiene protocols to prevent the spread of the virus? Worry no more as we’ve put together this guide to help your business ease its way into the new normal.



Make disinfection a priority at your place of business


We’ve always believed that a clean and orderly jewelry store will attract customers to your business. Taking the time to plan and set up your jewelry display so that your merchandise will catch shoppers’ attention is always important even before the health crisis. This includes making sure your retail space and goods are free from dust and scratches. (Check out our Ultrawave Jewelry Cleaning Machine today)

However, during the COVID-19 pandemic, you need to level up your store’s cleaning protocols. You also need to make sure everyone that comes into your store, staff and customers alike, must keep themselves safe and clean to help prevent spreading the disease.

Make sure to have several of these tools around your store so that they are within everyone’s reach:

Disinfectant spray and wipes - Make sure to regularly wipe down your counters, glass displays, or any other surfaces that are common touchpoints.

Hand sanitizers - While pump bottles that contain alcohol or gel will do, you can also go with no-contact sanitizer dispensers for added protection.

Disposable masks - Different locales will have different rules on the use of face masks, but requiring people to wear one before they come into your store is always a better, safer option. You can offer them for free at the door to anyone that enters your store.

Face shields - You may also opt for this type of barrier so that your staff and customers’ faces will still be visible when they come into your establishment.

Safety tips to remember for jewelry shop owners


Make sure to install barriers between your store staff and customers - Even with face shields and masks on, physical barriers like acrylic shields add another layer of protection from community transmission. Place them around areas where close contact may occur like display counters, jewelry repair areas, and payment counters.

Be vigilant about maintaining social distancing - Medical experts recommend maintaining at least six feet of distance between individuals. To reinforce the directive, have markers around your store that show people where they can stand or wait for their turn. You can also try limiting the number of people who can enter your store to avoid overcrowding.

Conduct regular clean up sessions throughout the day - You may designate certain hours during the workday for cleaning and disinfection.

Stay tuned for medical advisories from the government - It helps to keep yourself abreast of the bulletins released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) during the health crisis. For more guidelines on how to operate a business during the COVID-19 pandemic, check out these reminders from the CDC.

Good luck and stay safe!
