The Apparel Search Company had launched a website called the Jewelry Network in 2008 at JewelryNetwork.org.  We sold this website domain in September 2013.

The Jewelry Network was initially designed to be a business to business social network for members of the jewelry industry to connect with one another.  The idea was to provide a convenient place for designers, manufacturers, wholesalers, and boutique owners to meet one another to communicate back and forth regarding industry relevant issues.  The initial concept was to create a network similar to our Fashion Industry Network website but dedicated specifically to bracelets, rings, earrings, necklaces, watches, gems, etc.

In 2008, the Apparel Search Company launched our original version of the Jewelry Network at JewelryNetwork.org

With a slow to moderate growth rate of approximately 150 new members per year, the B2B website developed into a pleasant niche community of people with similar interests.  Members communicated via the industry specific forums, group categories, and the blog system.  Friends and colleagues were also able to contribute photos and videos for the network members to review.

During the same time period, we continued to work on improving our fashion industry community at our FIN website (FashionIndustryNetwork.com). 

In September 2013, it was decided that we could better service our network members by focusing our attention on only one social network.  After deep thought and much regret, the decision was made to phase out the business networking platform at the JewelryNetwork.org website.
