11: Essential Guide show highlights
Show Highlights
Future Stars to Shine at IJL Bright Young Gems is an IJL initiative that each year recognises five of the most exciting young jewellery designers in the UK. While they are not unveiled until the show – in the Design Gallery on Stand C40 – we can exclusively announce the line-up for 2010: Sophie Breitmeyer, Victoria Tryon, Jessica Poole, Harry Hornby and Hannah Livingstone.
These five rising stars have been nominated by a prestigious panel of leading editors and industry gurus. The panel for 2010 comprises Hilary Alexander of The Daily Telegraph (pictured), Vivienne Becker of the FT’s How To Spend It, Claudia Mahoney of Glamour and, new this year, Jessica Diamond from Wallpaper* Magazine. The initiative provides a unique showcase for these designers as they begin to establish their reputations for producing outstanding contemporary jewellery.
Also returning this year is the Astley Clarke IJL Bright Young Gems Gold Award. The winner will be given the opportunity to work with Astley Clarke’s experienced design team to develop an exclusive range that will be sold online at
AstleyClarke.com. Watch our podcast interview with Bec Clarke at

Platinum Blazes a Trail
Platinum Guild International will once again be encouraging retailers to follow the popular Platinum Trail around the show, allowing you to view platinum manufacturers’ latest collections. Some of these manufacturers will also reveal specially designed tri-sets for the PGI Platinum Bridal Design Competition.
A panel of distinguished judges will tour the Platinum Trail during the opening day of IJL and choose the winners for the Platinum Bridal Design and the Best Platinum Display. These winners will be presented with their awards at a special PGI cocktail event held on the opening evening of the show.
Visiting retailers to the trail will also get the chance to voice their opinion on the platinum designs and displays by making a ‘Retailer’s Choice’ online during the show. The winners will be announced at
www.preciousplatinum.co.uk after IJL.
