Yesterday Baroni Designs named Jewelry Crossings "Retailer of the Week" and interviewed me for their blog (
http://baronidesigns.blogspot.com/2010/01/retailer-of-week.html ) The relationship with Baroni has been nothing but excellent over the three years since we introduced their sterling silver line on our site. They are a company that truly listens to their retailers and their sales team is friendly, attentive and, most importantly, understands the business model of an internet business (meaning we need quick turn around of product when we are restocking). Baroni is just launching their 2010 Collection and we will soon have the products available for purchase on Jewelry Crossings. The big change this year is an increase in gold-plating over sterling silver. Because the price of gold is so exorbitant, women want the look of gold without the over-the-top price tag. The Baroni matte gold look is stunning.
