Of Blacklock Jewellery & reflected glory
We love it when clients we've worked with so closely, get recognition for what they do. Blacklock Jewellery have just been featured as 'Retail Stars' in Professional Jeweller's Hot100 for 2010. The Hot 100 "is a roll of honour for the retailers, jewellery and watch executives, established and emerging designers and businesspeople who have made an outstanding contribution to the industry this year." source
We wanted to extend our congratulations to the Blacklocks; we're excited about where you're heading and look forward to what the future holds.
On a personal point of chuffedness, the shooting location selected for the magazine spread was sourced by Paul Evans our Creative Director. "Art direction for the win!"
RG&B and ARS sitting in a tree...
As has been previously noted, we like our Swiss type. We think we're pretty good with our letters, but it's nice when impartial, objective on-lookers back us up. Our brand typeface is ARS Region which we love dearly. ARS themselves have recently stumbled upon our website and have seen fit to feature our use of their typeface on their own.
Feel the Swiss love!
Blacklock website shortlisted for “Best Jewellery E-tailer of the Year”
We're over the moon! April 2010 saw the fruit of 6 months of hard graft on the Blacklock Jewellery brand and website project. We loved every moment of the job, and we knew when it went live we'd been involved with something special. That's now been formally recognised by the UK Jewellery industry, as the site has been shortlisted for “Best Jewellery E-tailer of the Year” at the UK Jewellery Awards 2010.
We won't know whether we've won until the night of July 15, but in the mean-time our Creative Director, Paul Evans, needs to go and source himself a tuxedo. Nice.
