Top-performing posts
The three posts pulling the most engagement in the last 90 days.
reel 30.98% engagedPeople think my camera roll is full of diamonds. Reality? 1,000 photos of gemstones. 500 screenshots of flowers. 200 factory videos. 100 sketches. And at least 20 pictures taken just to check if a prong is slightly crooked. The glamorous shots make it to Instagram. The rest is where the real magic happens. ✨ #JewelryDesigner #BehindTheScenes #FineJewelry #DesignProcess #Craftsmanship
carousel 16.25% engagedYou don't have to be a jeweller to fall in love with jewellery. Hi! I'm Kriti. I'm a jewellery designer and consultant, and for years I've been designing collections behind the scenes for brands and jewellers. Now, I'm opening the doors to that world. This page is where I'll share everything I can't stop thinking about: Extraordinary craftsmanship Fascinating gemstones Incredible jewellery stories Nature-inspired design. The tiny details that separate good jewellery from exceptional jewellery You'll also find my honest opinions, designer's hot takes, and eventually, curated pieces from some of the most talented jewellers I know. If you've ever admired a beautiful piece of jewellery and wondered "What's the story behind it?"—you're in the right place. Welcome to my little corner of the jewellery world. #FineJewelry #JewelryDesigner #JewelryStories #JewelryLover #HighJewelry
reel 11.38% engagedTurns out, our ancestors had impeccable taste. Long before moodboards, Pinterest, or fashion weeks, sculptors were carving intricate necklaces, stacked bangles, elaborate earrings, and gemstone-studded crowns into stone. Centuries later, we're still taking notes. Maybe great design doesn't age. It simply waits to be rediscovered. #JewelryHistory #AncientJewelry #FineJewelry #DesignInspiration #Craftsmanship

Strategy summary
What's working, what to fix, and what to ship next.
TL;DR
Reels are the engagement engine, crushing with up to 320 likes on post 29 versus carousels averaging 45. Kri.j owns nature-to-jewelry transformations, fueling 28% of feed and hooks like post 10's bird of paradise. Yet 2.2 posts/week starves growth for a 1k-follower jewelry account hungry for authority in fine gems and craft. Process BTS pillars at 25% share humanize her edge, but history tales lag without visuals. Double cadence to benchmark 5/week, leaning reels on Saturdays and Fridays where post 29 soared. Fix the leak: inconsistent hooks drop averages to 50 likes. Standardize 4 patterns across pillars for predictable spikes.
Working
5- Nature designs drive shares with vivid hooks, 28% pillar.
- Process reels explode, post 29 at 320 likes.
- Birthstone posts personalize gems with history.
- Ancient inspiration reels top charts, post 26 117 likes.
- Designer vulnerability builds comments, post 11.
Risks
5- Cadence too low at 2.2 posts per week limits visibility.
- Underuse reels despite 4x higher engagement than carousels.
- Few collaborations beyond 10% UGC share.
- History pillar needs more visuals like ancient sketches.
- Inconsistent day timing misses peak Saturday surges.
Ship next
5- Ramp to 5 posts/week prioritizing reels on Saturdays.
- Test 3 hook patterns in next 10 posts tracking likes.
- Collaborate with 2 more accounts like post 17 for cross-exposure.
- Analyze top posts 26,29 for reel scripts repeatable weekly.
- Launch pillar series: one birthstone post per month.
