What does a jewelry analyst do?

A Jewelry Analyst specializes in evaluating, appraising, and authenticating different types of jewelry, such as rings, necklaces, and gemstones. They analyze the quality, value, and authenticity of pieces using specialized tools and industry knowledge. Their work often involves preparing appraisal reports, advising clients on purchases or sales, and staying updated on market trends. Jewelry Analysts may work for jewelry retailers, auction houses, insurance companies, or as independent consultants.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a jewelry analyst, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Jewelry Analyst, you need expertise in gemology, jewelry appraisals, and industry standards, often supported by certifications such as Graduate Gemologist (GG) or Accredited Jewelry Professional (AJP). Familiarity with gem-testing equipment, valuation software, and inventory management systems is typically required. Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication skills help you deliver accurate assessments and build trust with clients. These skills are crucial for ensuring precise valuations, maintaining credibility, and supporting business operations in the jewelry industry.

What are some common challenges faced by jewelry analysts in evaluating gemstones and finished pieces?

Jewelry Analysts often encounter challenges such as distinguishing between natural and synthetic gemstones, identifying subtle treatments or enhancements, and accurately appraising items with limited provenance or documentation. The role requires keen attention to detail and up-to-date knowledge of industry standards and testing methods. Analysts also need to communicate findings clearly to clients or team members, often translating technical reports into understandable recommendations.

Job description

About Jewels Aficionado (by Wrist Aficionado):

As part of Wrist Aficionado, a premier destination for watches with decades of expertise, we bring together a deep knowledge of luxury, collecting, and exceptional craftsmanship to create a truly distinctive luxury experience - Jewels Aficionado offers an exceptional selection of luxury jewelry, timepieces, Hermès bags and other collectible luxury pieces. 

Jewels Aficionado is looking for a highly motivated, curious, and entrepreneurial person to join our growing team and play a hands-on role in building the next chapter of luxury jewelry, women’s watches and Hermes bags.

This is an opportunity with room to grow your career due to the unique amount of exposure. Rather than focusing on one area of the business, you'll work across the entire brand while focusing on jewelry production, e-commerce, merchandising and marketing. This role reports directly to the Director of Jewels Aficionado.


Responsibilities

Jewelry Production
  • Assist with jewelry production timelines concept through completion, working with manufacturers/vendors on technical specifications
  • Serve as the primary point of contact between our design team and manufacturers/vendors on technical specifications — materials, stone setting, casting, sizing, and finishing
  • Maintain a strong working knowledge of jewelry materials, gemstones, and manufacturing techniques to guide sourcing and production decisions
  • Maintain industry knowledge and develop best practices including researching industry/market trends, materials, gemstones, and new product ideas.
E-Commerce 
  • Help manage and continuously improve the Jewels Aficionado website (experience with Shopify is a plus) 
  • Create and update product listings, descriptions, imagery, pricing, and other website related support
  • Support new product launches and develop clear product descriptions for new collection launches
  • Look for ways to improve the online shopping experience and presentation of the collection.
  • Learn how the e-commerce side of a luxury business operates and contribute ideas for growth.

Client Engagement & Partnerships

  • Assist with client inquiries, product research, and sales materials.
  • Contribute to building the visual identity and voice of a growing luxury brand
  • Learn how to communicate the value, craftsmanship, and story behind exceptional luxury pieces to clients, the community and through learning & development materials 
  • Manage stylist requests to create clear, accurate memos for loans and pulls
Marketing & Business Development 
  • Support visual merchandising for shoots, in-store displays, and events
  • Assist with creating content for social media, the website, email, and other channels.
  • Support product photography, video, copywriting, and other creative projects.
  • Assist the marketing team with campaign coordination and communications
  • Develop a strong understanding of our products and the broader luxury market.
  • Research and understand fine jewelry, diamonds, colored gemstones, vintage jewelry, watches, Hermès, and other collectible luxury categories along with fashion, luxury, and cultural trends 


This role is intentionally broad. You'll have the opportunity to see how different parts of a luxury business connect—from designing and producing a piece of jewelry to putting it online, telling its story, and ultimately selling it to a client. You will work closely with the Director of Jewels Aficionado and founders to gain exposure to the decisions, challenges, and opportunities that come with building a growing luxury brand. 

Technical Skills & Qualifications
  • A genuine passion for fine jewelry, diamonds, colored gemstones, and luxury.
  • A strong interest in learning how a jewelry and luxury business operates.
  • A bachelor's degree 
  • Work experience in business analysis, marketing, merchandising, luxury retail, e-commerce, jewelry/watches, or other relevant experience is a plus.
  • Strong critical thinking organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.


  • Shopify or e-commerce experience is a plus.
  • CAD, jewelry design, Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, or other design experience is a significant plus.
  • Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities.
  • A willingness to ask questions, learn, and figure things out independently.


Full-time position.

Salary: $65,000 - $75,000

Benefits: health insurance and 401K
