Jewelers in Maine

What is the proper salutation for a blog post written mid pandemic? My first instinct was to type, “Hey Day’s fam!” Full disclosure, I actually typed this. Then I quickly pounded away at the delete key. “No, Vanessa. You can’t begin a blog post about the jewelry industry as if the last 4 months never happened!” The last 4 months, has in fact, happened. On March 18th, I made the agonizing decision to temporarily close our Auburn store. The safety of my team, my family, and our customers was at the forefront of my mind. The fear of the unknown; exacerbated by the global news, media, and social chatter; the inadequate lifesaving equipment and supplies flashed before my eyes. For the first time in my professional career – for the first time in ALL of our professional careers – business and commerce was co ...

The Christmas season is upon us. As the holidays begin their fast approach, perhaps engagement has made itself at home in your mind.

Bringing home that sparkling, new piece of jewelry is an exciting moment in your life! A new gemstone ring, a pair of luxurious gold cufflinks, or a quality watch is a fabulous addition to your ongoing jewelry collection, but how would you feel if you lost that new item? What about if a favorite vintage piece goes missing while you’re out and about doing errands? We insure our homes, our cars, our lives, but we don’t often think about insuring our jewelry.  Jewelry insurance is a simple, yet incredibly effective insurance policy that all jewelry owners should consider.

If your jewelry is insured and it’s lost or stolen, not only from your home but while you’re on vacation or otherwise traveling, most insurance policies will cover that loss. You may not be able to replace a precious heirloom ring or a spe ...
