Editor’s Note
The ‘K-Bling Bling’ jewelry show opens today, offering a final opportunity to purchase Korean jewelry before anticipated tariff increases. The event runs through the 13th at the Oxford Palace Hotel.
‘K-Bling Bling’, which recently opened its doors at the Oxford Palace Hotel, will kick off a dazzling five-day jewelry show from tomorrow (the 9th) to the 13th. This jewelry show is being promoted as the last pre-tariff-increase event for Korean jewelry, attracting keen interest from Korean-American customers.
The event is hosted by the Kobe Jewelry Group, featuring both the ‘K-Bling Bling’ and ‘Ring Heaven’ brands. Notably, with a 15% tariff now confirmed for Korean jewelry, the products on display at this exhibition are Gangnam-crafted gems imported just before the event, allowing them to be sold at pre-increase prices. Adding to this, K-Bling Bling is offering up to 50% off, and Ring Heaven 50-80% off in a large-scale sale, which organizers describe as “a benefit unlikely to come again.”
The exhibition will feature a variety of gems including ▶ Gangnam-crafted jadeite jade ▶ rare and valuable red coral ▶ rubies, sapphires, and paraiba tourmalines. The jadeite jade, notable for its subtle color and restrained elegance, is drawing particular attention for its craftsmanship, which blends tradition with modern sensibility to an artistic level. Red coral, symbolizing health and good fortune with its red hue, is receiving a strong response from middle-aged and older women. In fact, half of the ten natural red coral rings prepared for this exhibition have already been sold, demonstrating their popularity.
The item attracting the most attention at this event is K-Bling Bling’s pearl bead necklace. With a classic yet practical design, it can be widely used from simple daily coordination to layered styling, and is expected to emerge as a trend item this fall.
The jewelry show will be held at K-Bling Bling inside the Oxford Palace Hotel (#A, former Gemco location) from 10 AM to 7 PM.
