That first year cost me thousands.

Overspent on impulse buys

Walking into show after show with "everything looks amazing" goggles. By Day 3 my budget was gone and I had bags of jewelry I didn't need.

Missed half the important venues

Spent three days at the convention center before I even learned about Kino and the hotel shows. Left without seeing 60% of what Tucson offers.

Zero organization system

Came home with dozens of bags, scraps of paper with vendor info, and no clear way to track what I'd bought or who I'd met. Took weeks to sort through the chaos.

Built from Real Experience

This isn't theory. It's the exact systems I use at Tucson and at premier jewelry shows throughout the year, along with my annual design and sourcing trips to Jaipur, India. Skip the trial and error and access ten years of experience.

Ulka - Jewelry Professional and Guide Author

I've spent over a decade sourcing gemstones and fine jewelry professionally—traveling annually to Tucson, making the rounds at top-tier shows year-round, and curating one-of-a-kind pieces in Jaipur for my collectors.

My first Tucson trip? Total chaos. I was overwhelmed, unprepared, and made costly mistakes. But over time, I built repeatable systems that turned the frenzy into something efficient—and even fun.

This guide distills everything I learned the hard way: smart planning, strategic buying, and streamlined organization to help you turn Tucson's overload into focused, successful sourcing.
