CONGRATULATIONS to our very own Dorset based jewellers, WHY at Corfe Castle. They have been judged by 15 of the U.K.'s most prestigious and influentical figures of the jewellery industry to qualify as one of six finalists for 'Independent Retailer of the Year' at the U.K Jewellery Awards 2004.
In glittering style the awards will be presented on the 14th July at London's Grosvenor House, with the country's top jewelers and designers in attendance. This 'OSCAR' night for the jewellery industry shows the best representation of jewellers that the U.K has to offer.
'WHY JEWELLERS' has many attributes that make it stand out from the rest, fantastic designs that represent creativity and outstanding quality, the use of top notch materials and a diamond grading standard that is second to none. Also they are one of the only independent retailers that owns and mines its fantastic selection of sapphires from their sapphire mine 'ELSTON 1' which is located near Ratnapura, Sri Lanka.
The opening of this mine has been one of WHY's great achievements for 2004, it gives their clients a greater understanding of the gems origins, its journey from mine to finished jewellery and the added excitement and interest to the piece.
Other achievements for 2004 have been the development of their design and manufacturing systems which are used for the production of individual fine jewellery clients orders, as they can view more than 1500 photographic images which can give the client inspiration for their own individual design. As well as the option of clients choosing their design they can also choose their own diamonds and this is where 'WHY's' diamond quality standard and client awareness is evident.
The staff instore can educate you in everything you could possibly need to know about diamonds, their standards, grading, certification and the 4 c's in the most relaxed and informative manner. They are all enthusiastic, bright and ready to create new and innovative pieces. With this extensive knowledge and creativity you can see why they have been selected as finalists for this year's awards.
So if you would like to create your own individual piece of designer jewellery from one of the U.K.'s most innovative jewellers, WHY Jewellers is the place to visit.
