Past Shows

Our Last show in March is the Vancouver Gem and Mineral Show located in PNE (Pacific National Exhibition). This is the ideal size for our booth because it allows us to demonstrate our items well in full range. Displays in the show We have met many new customers in this showAs we expected, this show is very successful, we have customers waiting in lines to get in the show everyday. We meet lots of new customers in the show and it advertised our brand very well. Fortunately we have had some good friends to work with us in this big booth. We feel grateful to their generous help.Figure 5Many thanks to Karen Bin, Anna Bin, Tony Tan, Aaron He and the little girls who help us count some of the items.  We have a new sales record in the show.We cannot do this without you.

Our next show is the Victoria Rock and Gem Show. To get there, we need to take the BC Ferry. Our van is on the ferry to Victoria Some views from the ferry Display in the showThis is one of our smallest booths throughout the year. We have to put everything in two layers and it can only fit one stand. Even so, we are pleased to come to Victoria and participate in the show as one of the vendors because we have had a very successful show.  Many buyers love our itemsVictoria is one of our best markets. It seems like people in Victoria have the culture of designing their own jewellery. Even though our items are not displayed as nice as in other shows, our customers are very patient. Our sales are very good despite the crowded booth we have.The following are some very nice displays from members of Victoria Lapidary & Mineral Society. They are very good samples of DIY jewellery. Some very nice display from club members 

This is a professional gift show that's held in Vancouver from Sunday March 12 to Tuesday March 14. We are allowed to set up our booth starting from Thursday. Therefore, vendors have plenty of time to set up their booths to make sure that their products are in best displayed. Unfortunately it's only open to wholesalers, so not many customers know that we have another booth in this show, but it is a good opportunity to know some different customers who never visit the other shows we participated. This is the only show we participate in that serves free tea, coffee and donuts in the morning for vendors and buyers. We think that this is a very good idea because it gives a warm welcome to the vendors and buyers in the early morning. Displays at the show 

The rockhounds annual show in Hastings Centre is our first show in March.Since this show is holding on the same weekend as the Vancouver Gift Expo at PNE, we have to ask some of our best friends to help us because we want to attend both shows. We have got a very good location for the show and a big booth to display our items. Display at the show 

Poster for Maple Ridge Lapidary Club Rock & Gem ShowStepping into the year of 2017, the Maple Ridge Lapidary Club Rock & Gem Show is our very first show. The Maple Ridge Lapidary Club, who is the registered member of the BC Lapidary society, had celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2008.  Sights in the early morning On the way to the showSince the show starts at 11 A.M. on February 25th, we are given two hours to set up our booth. Therefore we departs early so that we will have enough time to prepare. Figure 2 and 3 are some awesome pictures we take on the way to the show.Views at our booth before and after the set up. We are grateful to the support from Maple Ridge Lapidary club to have more space to display our items this year.

The show has volunteers to help vendors loading and unloading.
