The International Gem & Jewelry Show will bring nearly 100 vendors together for a three-day showcase of jewelry, gemstones, and unique accessories in Pasadena. The event, founded in 1967 by Herbert A. Duke, Sr., continues its legacy as America’s premier direct-to-consumer jewelry marketplace.

“What’s nice about the show is whatever you are looking for in gems and jewelry is going to be there,” said Arnold Duke, current owner of InterGem Inc. and son of the founder. The show promises an extensive range of products, from traditional diamond rings to extraordinary artistic jewelry pieces.

Visitors can explore a diverse collection including diamonds, beads, pearls, opals, fine jewelry, precious and semi-precious gemstones, engagement rings, watches, vintage and estate jewelry, and even jewelry cleaning services. The show offers something for every jewelry enthusiast, with vendors ranging from traditional jewelers to innovative designers.

Special admission options are available for different groups. Active and veteran military members and their families receive free entry, and licensed wholesale buyers can pre-register for complimentary admission. Schools are also eligible for free entry with proper registration.

Attendees should note several important guidelines: children under 9 are not permitted, photography is prohibited, and tickets are valid for all three days with no refunds or transfers. Online tickets are priced at $6.00, with standard tickets at the door costing $8.00.

The International Gem & Jewelry Show represents more than just a shopping event—it’s a celebration of craftsmanship, design, and the rich history of jewelry making.
