What lighting is best for a jewellery store?

Focused, high colour-rendering light inside or directly above each case, with a lower ambient level in the room so the product stands out.

How should display cases be laid out in a jewellery store?

Counter cases along the walls and a few freestanding cases on the floor, with clear sightlines from the staff position to every case.

Which style suits a jewellery store?

Luxury and minimal styles are the most common, but warm natural and industrial interiors work for contemporary and handmade jewellery.

What makes a jewellery store work

Light inside the case: Integrated lighting in each case, with a cool-white option for diamonds and warmer light for gold, does more than any ceiling fitting.
Seated consultation: Higher-value sales happen sitting down. Plan a counter or table with chairs, a mirror and good light away from the door.
Security without a fortress feel: Lockable cases, a clear view from the counter to the entrance and controlled stock areas can be designed in quietly.
Darker walls, brighter product: Muted or dark wall finishes make the cases glow. Bright, busy walls compete with the pieces.
