(ATTLEBORO, Mass.) – MJSA, the trade association dedicated to professional excellence in jewelry making and design, has published the 2016 print edition of its popular Buyer’s Guide, a wide-ranging resource for jewelry-making tools, supplies, and services.
The 2016 Guide, which lists MJSA members by the products and services they offer, features a new layout that offers more supplier information, including minimum order requirements. It also offers in-depth articles on a variety of topics: technologies and tools to watch in 2016, tips for purchasing alloys and working with subcontractors, and trend forecasts for chains, components, and fashion colors.
A complement to the association’s online guide, the 288-page print version provides fingertip access to supplies needed in every facet of the jewelry-making trade: the latest tools and equipment; findings and chain; gemstones and beads; precious and non-precious metals; packaging and displays; and contract and business services. A detailed MJSA member listing is also included, consisting of primary contact information along with corporate profiles.
The Buyer’s Guide offers users the comfort of being able to deal with MJSA members – companies that, by joining the association, not only demonstrate their dedication to the industry, but also agree to abide by the MJSA’s strictly enforced Code of Ethics.
MJSA members automatically receive a complimentary copy of the Buyer’s Guide, and they can obtain additional copies for $10 each. Non-members can purchase a copy for $35. To order, go to MJSA.org or contact MJSA Customer Service Manager Betty Costa at 1-800-444-MJSA (6572), ext. 3050 or betty.costa@mjsa.org.
