Engagement Ring… New Era in Life;
Bellman’s Jewelers Website…. New Era of Technology
  Manchester, NH - Queen City’s gem, Bellman’s Jewelers, has partnered with Varuna Design and Advertising of Bedford, an award winning marketing and design agency, to create its new, innovative website showcasing features never before seen on a jeweler’s site. Now, by using a high-speed, one-of-a-kind video technology, web site viewers are actually able to feel like they are holding jewelry in the palm of their hand with a simple click of a mouse.

According to David Bellman, owner of Bellman’s Jewelers, the new feature called Video Showcase, is capable of providing fast, crystal clear video and an exclusive in-store shopping experience entirely online. “This new interactive tool allows visitors to shop in the store through the advances of technology,” said Bellman. “The tour gives you the full experience of jewelry shopping at Bellman’s, before even stepping foot through our door. Now that is customer convenience.”

To obtain this new interactive option, David Bellman looked to the expertise of Varuna Design and Advertising. “After talking with David, the team at Varuna wanted to create a site that was like no other and would really take Bellman’s Jewelers to the next level of technology,” said Nate Lindquist, President, Varuna Design and Advertising. “The video tour provides customers with the ability to see jewelry first hand with the quality and precision no other jeweler has been able to obtain using the advances of the web.” Bellman added,  “Varuna Design ensured that the video loads extremely fast, so users were able to view the video we created in a timely fashion. Again, it is about the browsing convenience and overall experience had by our customers.”  

In addition to the video tour, advances were made to the “Cool School” program originally created by David Bellman, along with an elegant overhaul of the entire site. The “Cool School” link is a tutorial that teaches viewers valuable information about the purchase of a diamond and other stones. Varuna updated the program so that users couldn’t “cherry pick” what they wanted to learn. “We did this so our users truly understand everything from what makes a diamond so radiant to what to look for in a setting, there’s information that people need and deserve to know about choosing a diamond.” said Bellman.

This new website will be launched on  Thursday, November 2 at a launch party being held at Bellman's Jewelers . The new website can be obtained by visiting www.bellmans.com on November 2, 2006.
