Jewellery & Luxury Retail

Item-level RFID for stock counts in minutes, loss prevention and multi-location visibility.

Jewellery and luxury retail has unique demands — high-value individual SKUs, daily stock counts, EAS loss prevention and movement of stock between stores, workshops and safes. We supply discreet UHF RFID readers, jewellery-grade tags, NFC-enabled iPad POS sleds and chip-and-PIN terminals for a complete item-level inventory and POS estate. Stock counts that took two hours now take ten minutes — and shrinkage is visible the same day, not the next month.

Frequently asked questions

Will RFID work on metal jewellery?

Yes — jewellery-grade UHF RFID tags use small-format, metal-friendly antennas designed for rings, watches and high-density displays. Read accuracy is 99%+ on a tested estate.

How long does a stock count take?

A typical luxury jewellery store with 1,000-3,000 SKUs counts in 10-20 minutes with one handheld reader, versus 2-4 hours with a barcode scanner.

Will the tags damage the items?

Tags use jewellery-grade soft-touch backings, low-profile adhesives or hang-tag attachments depending on item type. No damage to surfaces, plating or gemstones.

Can RFID drive EAS at the store entrance?

Yes — RFID-based EAS gates flag tagged items leaving without an authorised sale event, with full audit trail of which item moved and when.

What about repair and workshop workflows?

Item-level tracking through every workshop stage — receipt, valuation, repair, QC, return to customer — with full audit trail and customer notification triggers.

Lead time on a multi-store rollout?

Standard RFID handheld kit ships next-day from UK stock. Multi-store tagged-inventory rollouts typically deploy in 6-10 weeks including tag application.
