Showcase Jewellers honoured long-term members at this year’s Gala Dinner in Sydney in the midst of a busy week for the Australian industry buying group.

The event was hosted in Sydney in the lead-up to the International Jewellery Fair.

Named in honour of Graham Jackson, the winner of the Retailer of the Year award was Duffs Jewellers from Geelong. The other finalists in that award were Kennedy's Showcase Jewellers (Swan Hill) and Jeremy Fleming Jewellers (Sale).

The winner of the Suppliers of the Year Award was Mark McAskill Jewellery, leading Jewellery Centre and Duraflex Group Australia.

The group also hosted Jewellery Design Awards, with Freedom by Kath Proszkowiec (Enigma Jewellers in Newcastle) taking out the CAD/CAM category. Handmade Design was won by Gabriella Mulock of York Jewellers in Penrith for the Isla Transform Bangle.

The Hand Sketch Design category was won by Pebble Ever After from Scott Smolders of Maleny Jewellers in Queensland, while the Members’ Choice Award was won by L'Architecture by Jessica Zeromski (Duffs Jewellers) and The Empress of Amalgamation by Ari Fleming of Jeremey Fleming Jewellers.

As mentioned, the group also acknowledged the long-term commitment of many members, presenting a series of awards for 40, 30, 20, and 10-year membership milestones.

The group also released the Member All-Star Awards, which were won by Watsons Jewellers (Launceston), Greg Neill & Son (Mackay), Argyle Jewellers (Carindale), York Jewellers (Penrith), and Matthews Jewellers (Newcastle).
