.jewelry is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program.

Applicants

  1. Donuts (Wild Bloom, LLC)
  2. Richemont DNS Inc.[1]

Richemont DNS Inc.

The application was issued a GAC Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, Heather Dryden. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[2]

The warning states that the applicant is "seeking exlcusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition.[3]
