The aptly named collection, “After the Ring”, has nothing to do with what most industry professionals would consider bridal. There are no semi-mounts or even a hint of a wedding band in this collection.

The 24-page catalog is an idea that Royal Chain Vice President of Marketing, Phillip Gabriel Maroof, devised to satisfy his desire to cater to the bridal market without deviating from the company’s roots. It was also a way to help retailers, who frequently complain that once the ring is purchased, they lose all of the additional wedding-related sales to big box stores and online retailers.

The collection will be very focused and geared towards add-on sale items for after that initial ring purchase. It includes fresh, fun-to-flaunt trendsetting pieces that the bride may want to purchase for numerous events surrounding her big day, like the bachelorette party or bridal shower, as well as the all-important gifts for bridesmaids, mother of the bride or groom and groomsmen. Retail prices in the collection will start as low as $29.

Retailers can use it in their stores as a guide for wedding parties searching to complete their wedding day needs.

The book will be available for pick-up at spring buying shows, starting with RJO. It will also be mailed out to all Royal Chain customers at the end of this month. Retailers can preview the collection by visiting Royal Chain’s website here.

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.”
