[1]Frederique Constant, Roberto Coin, and Heather Moore are a few exhibitors at the 2013 Centurion Jewelry Show to walk away with a design award.
“We’re always awed by the creative talent among Centurion’s exhibitors,” said Centurion president Howard Hauben.
“Our attendees love seeing what’s new and exciting from the entries and they choose the winners. In fact, we give a $10 Starbucks gift card to each retail attendee who votes. We had so many voters this year, we ran out of Starbucks cards twice!”
Exhibit Management Corp. of Weston, Conn., Chippenhook of Lewisville, Tex., and Jewelers’ Mutual Insurance Co. of Neenah, Wis., sponsored the awards.
Retailers voted for one winner in 11 categories. Held in Scottsdale, Ariz., the competition was open to all exhibitors at the show. Almost two-thirds of the companies participating submitted entries.
