Pricing is an issue that many people in the jewelry
business often worry about. However, there is a
method that you can easily use, whether you
purchase jewelry wholesale or make your own
jewelry. Pricing is very important. You don’t want
to charge too much, because you won’t sell
anything. On the other hand, you want to make
sure that you charge enough to make a profit.

If you purchase your jewelry at wholesale prices, a
markup of 15% to 30% is usual, and people will pay
these prices. In the grand scheme of things, apply
the 30% markup, and make that the ‘regular’ price.
When you need to move merchandise hold a sale,
and use the 15% markup price as the sale price.

If you make your own jewelry, determine the total
cost of the piece, including the cost of supplies,
shipping, warehousing and packaging, then apply a
15% markup. With the 15% markup, your jewelry
will be priced at the wholesale price. If you sell the
jewelry to the general public yourself, as opposed
to selling it to retailers, apply the retail price, which
in this case would be about 45% above your costs.

Over the centuries clocks have been used as a status symbol by those who wear them. Their precision, elegance and convenience are just some of the attributes that clocks and watches represent. Often they are bought purely for their aesthetic looks. and at other times they are bought because of their technical attributes like being precise to the last second or even millisecond. This is what makes clocks and watches so collectible and in some cases they can command high sums of money.

Whether you collect the new high precision watches or ones that come from a past era, the fact is that over the years this hobby has become a high turnover business. And collecting watches is in a lot of circles regarded as a wise form of investing.

At the start of the last century the clocks that were available for men or women were firstly pocket clocks, and then clocks that held by a pendant attached to the lining of jackets or corsets. The advent of war, industrialization, and the development of the sport activities, brought over new trends which extended to not only the way we dressed, but also how we carried our clocks.

It is said that it was a nanny who invented wrist watches at around the end of the 19th century, who fixed a clock around her wrist by using a silk band. The first watches to be made were in fact smaller models of pocket clocks that were fitted with a leather strap. Once this product hit the market newer designs started to be produced based around this same concept.

It was Louis Cartier who first made the kind of watches we see today when he created a watch for a flying pioneer hero by the name Santos Dumont. By 1911 this same type of watch was on general sale. That same type of watch became the blueprint of what wrist watches look like to this day.
