Jewelers of America CASE Award Winners Announced - Lanzhou DIY accessories Co.,Ltd

Jewelers of America (JA) has unveiled the winners of its 33rd annual CASE Awards for jewelry design, recognizing retail and supply members whose pieces exhibit creativity, artistry, style and excellence in jewelry design.

A panel of judges selected honorees out of more than 150 entries in eight categories based on overall design, marketability, originality and quality of manufacture, JA said last week. One retailer and a supplier entry were also named Best in Show.
