My Life: Anna Zuckerman

ANNA ZUCKERMAN

AC Zuckerman Jewelers, Mequon, WI

Anna Zuckerman’s high quality craftsmanship reflects her family’s life-long dedication to the art of goldsmithing. She opened her store in 1996, after emigrating from the former Soviet Union. She grew up watching her father design and craft jewelry as a young child, an experience which, early on, formed her own professional career. Today, Zuckerman is known for designing one-of-a-kind jewelry with Eastern European flair as well as ultra-contemporary American designs.

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
