PATRICIA FABER: I don’t think anyone does a palette of pastel and rare precious gems better than Erica Courtney; the colors bounce off each other, drawing the eye to the full design.

ORIN AND TINA MAZZONI: Magnificent! The work that it must have taken to match the color on this many Paraibas is unbelievable. A real showstopper for the woman that knows her color and wants to make an impressive entrance.

LAURIE WATT: What can you say about an E.C. piece but wonderful use of color, wonderful design and quality piece of construction.

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.”
