British department store Harrods has remodeled its fine jewelry room to transform it into a private and more personalized shopping environment, Luxury Daily writes. The article says that the room now includes screened seating areas for each counter that sells exclusive and rare pieces, as well as bespoke lighting. “We have seen an increase in demand for high jewelry, large stone sales and bespoke orders across the department in recent years, so [we] have included private VIP salons to facilitate these conversations within each of the counters,” says Helen David, fashion director at Harrods, in a statement.

Wilkerson: “They Feel Like Family”

Newton’s Jewelers in Fort Smith, Ark., was a true institution. But after being at the helm for most of his life, owner (and descendent of the original founder) Kelly Newton decided it was time to retire. He chose Wilkerson to handle the sale. “I’ve known the owners of Wilkerson for a long, long time. I felt at home with them,” he says. The final retirement sale was just a “blast” and the Wilkerson sales team made it so very simple and straightforward, says Newton. Would he recommend Wilkerson to others? Absolutely. “They’ve done incredible work,” says Newton. “They feel like family.”
