J.R. Dunn Jewelers, the 46-year old family-owned and operated jewelry company, received the 2015 Luxury Retailer of the Year award during the annual jewelry shows in Las Vegas.

Jim and Ann Marie Dunn started J.R. Dunn in 1969 and now run the Lighthouse Point, FL-based company with their son, Sean Dunn. The Dunns broke new ground as one of the first mom and pop retail jewelers to enter the eCommerce arena more than 10 years ago, joining luxury department stores like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue in selling designer jewelry like Roberto Coin andJohn Hardy online. This action challenged the status quo but the website has gained the support of many luxury brands that were initially hesitant of the approach.
 
"Jim, Sean and I are deeply honored to have been named the 2015 Luxury Retailer of the Year, particularly from a field of such high-level competition," said co-owner Ann Marie Dunn. "We share this award with our clients, friends, and work family."

JRDunn.com continues to be a growing channel that features more than 8,000 products online where clients can enjoy zoom photography and utilize custom comparison tools, helping them make informed buying decisions.

Luxury, which connects jewelry retailers with high-end manufacturers and designers, is part of JCK Events. It brings together upscale jewelry retailers with high end manufacturers in Las Vegas once a year.
 
J.R. Dunn has an extensive client base from parts of Florida such as Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach and West Palm Beach.
