SAN FRANCISCO, CA – Sethi Couture has announced it will show its latest bridal collection in a new way at the Luxury JCK Show in Las Vegas, May 31-June 6.

“Instead of doing a traditional booth year after year, we will be creating a Bridal Boutique in our new space and location. We want the trade show experience to be fresh and exciting for the retailer. … Something novel to look forward to,” says Pratima Sethi.

A wedding-like invitation will be sent to retailers inviting them to attend Sethi Couture’s bridal salon at the show. Once they step into the salon to view the collection, the idea is to engage the retailer in a way that would allow them to visualize how Sethi Couture would be represented in a retail setting.

“We want to use this opportunity to highlight a growing segment for us but also a product mix that we are strongest in – stacking bands,” says Prerna Sethi. “Our bands have the versatility of every occasion and every woman: the bride-to-be, the fashionista, the avid collector. … We are excited for retailers to shop our bridal boutique with ease by giving them a well curated collection of our latest stylistic bands and our non-traditional bridal in this new setting.”

Sethi Couture’s new salon location at the Luxury show will be LUX 1412.

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.”
