INSTORE tourmaline2 878 It’s summer, and thoughts typically turn to a certain slurp-inducing natural treat. I come in more colors than pink and green — indeed my gemological family is the king of hue — but it’s this pairing for which I’m best known. And when the color saturation is just right, the demarcation sharp, and the clarity without issue (no pips on me!), I command a sweet price.

Who am I?

Looking for a Seamless Sale? Call Wilkerson

After almost 60 years in business, Breakiron Jewelers in Erie, Pennsylvania, was closing its doors. And the store’s owner, Linda Breakiron, was ready for it. She had run the store as its sole owner since the beginning of the millennium and was looking forward to a change. Of course, she called Wilkerson. Breakiron talked to other jewelers who had used Wilkerson and was satisfied with their response. “They always had positive feedback,” she recalls. With the sales, marketing and even additional inventory that Wilkerson provided, Breakiron insists she could never have accomplished her going-out-of-business sale without Wilkerson’s help. She’s now ready for the journey ahead, but looking back, she’d be sure to recommend Wilkerson. “They just made the whole process very seamless.”
