ONE HUNDRED YEARS ago, our nation emerged from a deadly influenza pandemic with a burst of wild creativity that made the Art Deco period of the 1920s into an era that still inspires us today. When quarantines eventually end, jewelry lovers will want to celebrate in high style. The fabulous, fun frivolity of fashion jewelry is the perfect way to accessorize for waltzing into the light at the end of a long tunnel.

Jewelry by Cynthia Desser includes triple wrap bracelet (right wrist) in matte gold and pearlized snake on matte brass mesh with silverite, smoky topaz and golden Swarovski pearls, $375; 2-inch cuff bracelet (left wrist) with four strands of bone-colored snakeskin layered with sparkly twisted gold/bone chain with magnetic clasp, $375; and three-strand woven collar with citrine pendant featuring silverite, yellow jade and pyrite with 14K gold coated brass and oxidized and lacquered brass, $465.

Time to Do What You've Always Wanted? Time to Call Wilkerson.

It was time. Teri Allen and her brother, Nick Pavlich, Jr., had been at the helm of Dearborn Jewelers of Plymouth in Plymouth, Mich., for decades. Their father, Nick Pavlich, Sr., had founded the store in 1950, but after so many wonderful years helping families around Michigan celebrate their most important moments, it was time to get some “moments” of their own. Teri says Wilkerson was the logical choice to run their retirement sale. “They’re the only company that specializes in closing jewelry stores,” she says. During the sale, Teri says a highlight was seeing so many generations of customers who wanted to buy “that one last piece of jewelry from us.” Would she recommend Wilkerson? Absolutely. “There is no way that I would have been able to do this by myself.”
