We’d like to address the wording used in a recent Bell & Brunt advertisement in Adelady that stated we are "Australia's only jeweller that is solely owned and led by women."
This claim was incorrect and was published in error. The wording should have referred to Bell & Brunt being Australia's oldest solely hand-designing and hand-making family jeweller, owned and led by women.
We recognise there are many outstanding jewellery businesses across Australia that are owned and led by women, and we apologise for the mistake and any offence or frustration it has caused.
The error was ours, and we take full responsibility for not identifying it before publication.
Thank you to those who brought it to our attention.
