With a sad heart we say goodbye to an industry stalwart and some great colleagues. Modern Jeweler never looked better than this past year or so in design, layout and useful content.
Seen on modernjeweler.com blog today:
After 108 years of serving the jewelry industry, Modern Jeweler
is suspending publication. We’d like to thank all the people who worked
hard over the years to make every issue worth reading. We’d also like
to thank the retailers and manufacturers who shared their time and
expertise with our readers each month. We hope to find a buyer who
believes in the future of the jewelry industry as much as we do. But
even if we don’t and the August issue of Modern Jeweler is
truly the last, we are sure that the jewelry industry’s strong
community and generosity of spirit will ensure its recovery is swift
and its future is bright. We’ll certainly miss being there to cover it.
- Tim Murphy, Publisher, and Cheryl Kremkow, Editor-in-Chief
this is indeed sad...I have had the good fortune to have been featured in this publication on two occasions....Cheryl and her writers were beyond professional and a joy to work with....they will be missed!
