(PRESS RELEASE) Windsor Jewelers announces that they have one of the most expensive chess sets in the world on display and for sale. The pieces are made of 14 karat yellow and white gold and adorned with gemstones. There is nearly 11 pounds of gold in the set and it took four artists nearly one year to carve the wax models used to cast the pieces. The set was originally commissioned and completed in 1971 and has been in the private collection of only two families since, the set is being sold by the current owner through the original artist.

The set was one of the most popular attractions at the Gemological Institute of America’s Museum, in California when it was on display there. We invite everyone to come in and see this incredible work of art.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
