Must -see collections at JCK Las Vegas 2025
One reason JCK Las Vegas remains such an important hub for the international fine jewelry trade is because the show offers a truly diverse range of products, from loose diamonds and gems to tech equipment and supplies. These collections highlighted below offer a taste of JCK’s variety:Haute Couture Brooch Collection by Smiling Rocks, Smiling Rocks guitar brooch and The Periklista Collection by Kouzoupis.
Haute Couture Floral Guitar brooch in 14k yellow gold with 0.98 ct. t.w. lab-grown diamonds and enamel,; Smiling Rocks. Haute Couture Hummingbird brooch in 14k white gold with 4.6 cts. t.w. multicolored lab-grown diamonds. Kouzoupis, a Turkish exhibitor in the Design Collective, is introducing the Periklista collection, which is named for the ancient Greek enamel technique that lends the pieces both their color and style. In Kouzoupis’ version, the ancient technique is made modern by the addition of bright colors and motifs, such as snakes, that capture the 2025 zeitgeist.
Like the European cloisonne method, the Periklista technique involves creating small partitions made of thin metal wires or strips on a metal surface, usually made of gold, and filling them with enamel, stones, or glass. Pioneered during the Mycenaean period (16th–12th century B.C.), Periklista enamel jewels were found in the royal tombs at Mycenae. Refined in subsequent centuries by Greek goldsmiths, the technique later influenced Roman and Byzantine art.

Platinum Market Demonstrates Strong Resilience With Price Recovery
Rebound In Platinum Prices Is Primarily Attributed To Softer U.S. Dollar Sentiment and Declining Treasury Yields
Global commodities markets are observing a significant shift in precious metals, as platinum (XPL) demonstrates a robust price recovery following a stabilization period in key support zones. The asset class is currently experiencing a constructive short-term upward trajectory, heavily influenced by shifting macroeconomic indicators and evolving geopolitical dynamics.
The recent rebound in platinum prices is primarily attributed to a confluence of favorable macroeconomic factors, including softer U.S. dollar sentiment and declining Treasury yields. This capital reallocation toward precious metals has been further accelerated by a preliminary U.S.- Iran peace agreement. The geopolitical breakthrough has effectively mitigated energy inflation anxieties, providing a tailwind for industrial and precious commodities alike.
From a technical perspective, platinum has successfully established a firm baseline within the $1,650–$1,750 support corridor. Current market momentum indicates a near-term progression toward the $1,850–$1,900 resistance zone.
While current indicators support a bullish short-term structure, institutional analysts emphasize that the asset’s mid-to-long-term trajectory remains contingent upon upcoming regulatory and macroeconomic milestones.
The impending Federal Reserve policy decision serves as a critical focal point for the market. Stakeholders are advised to monitor the following primary risk factors that could impact market consolidation or trigger a breakout:
- Monetary Policy Signalling: A hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve could strengthen the U.S. dollar, potentially capping platinum’s upward momentum.
- Industrial Demand: As a dual-use asset, platinum’s long-term valuation remains closely tied to global industrial manufacturing output.
- Technical Breakouts: Sustained price action above the $1,900 threshold will be required to validate a broader macro-rally toward the next institutional target of $2,170.
