Island Jewels shows new collection

Island Jewels of Indonesian has introduced a brand new
collection of sterling silver and stone jewelry for the local and
international markets ahead of the Idul Fitri and Christmas
holidays.

While all of the jewelry is made by local artisans, the
company also uses Italian technology and polishing techniques on
its jewelry.

Island Jewels employs about 20 stonecutters and 15
silversmiths at its headquarters in Yogyakarta. It also helps to
train prisoners in Nusa Kambangan to make jewelry as part of the
prison's vocational training program.

Last week, Island Jewels participated in the Hong Kong Jewelry
Fair, one of the world's largest jewelry fairs, at the invitation
of the Indonesian government.

The company has secured orders from six countries and
territories -- Australia, Holland, Italy, UK, Hong Kong and the
Philippines.
