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.

Safe-Haven Rally Amid US–Iran Diplomacy and Pre-NFP Caution AUGMONT BULLION REPORT
Gold Continues Its Upside Momentum With Next Target Resistance At $4,800–4,850 (~ Rs. 1,55,000)
Safe-Haven Dynamics – Gold and Silver have resumed their upward trend, supported by optimism around a potential US–Iran peace deal that is weakening the safe-haven appeal of the USD. Despite ongoing tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, investor sentiment leans toward diplomatic resolution. This has pushed Crude Oil prices lower, reducing inflationary pressure and lowering expectations of a more aggressive Fed stance.
Geopolitical Developments – Iran has accused the US of breaching the ceasefire through strikes near the Strait. The Trump administration is awaiting Tehran’s formal response to a proposal aimed at reopening Hormuz and resolving the roughly ten-week conflict. Reports suggest Iran will relay its position via Pakistan within two days.
Macro-economic Signals Markets are focused on today’s NFP print, forecast at 62K — a sharp pullback from March’s stronger-than-expected 178K. The Unemployment Rate is projected to hold at 4.3%, while Average Hourly Earnings growth is expected to tick up to 3.8% from 3.5%, keeping wage inflation in focus.
Technical Triggers
- Gold continues its upside momentum with next target resistance at $4,800–4,850 (~Rs.1,55,000).
- Silver has met the $80 (~Rs. 2,60,000) and $82 (~Rs. 2,65,000) upside target. Prices are expected to consolidate here for a while before moving higher towards $85 (~Rs. 2,70,000)
