Lucy Quartermaine has reported a highly successful showing at the CMJ Spring 2026 Trade Event, with strong order writing, five new account openings and a notably positive mood among independent retailers despite on-going industry cost pressures.

The contemporary silver jewellery brand attracted significant attention throughout the show, securing a number of new stockists while also taking the opportunity to reconnect with its established retail partners. The response across both new and existing accounts highlights the continued demand for distinctive, design-led collections with proven retail performance.

A key highlight of this year’s event was the one-day Access show, which welcomed non-CMJ members, an initiative that proved to be a major success. The expanded audience drove increased footfall and introduced the brand to a wider pool of potential partners, contributing meaningfully to new business secured during the show.

Importantly, while conversation across the trade continues to be shaped by the rising cost of precious metals, the overall sentiment at the CMJ remained buoyant. Retailers were engaged, optimistic and actively buying, signalling confidence in the resilience of the sector and the strength of well-positioned brands.

Particular interest was seen in Lucy Quartermaine’s more distinctive categories, with buyers responding enthusiastically to unique designs such as ear cuffs and handchains. These directional pieces continue to set the brand apart, offering retailers something fresh and commercially exciting that resonates strongly with customers seeking individuality.

Lucy Quartermaine’s latest collections were met with widespread approval, praised for their balance of sculptural design, wearability and strong visual identity, key drivers for both in-store impact and sell-through.

Commenting on the show, Lucy Quartermaine said: “There’s been a lot of discussion around challenges in the market, but what we experienced at the Trade Event and Access was incredibly encouraging. Retailers were positive, open to newness and focused on opportunities. The Access show was a real standout, and it was fantastic to both welcome new stockists and spend valuable time with our existing partners.”

The success of the show reinforces Lucy Quartermaine’s position as a leading name in contemporary silver jewellery, with a growing network of retailers and continued confidence from the independent sector.
