CONFIDENT AND STRONG, The New Feminist is inspired by those who were part of the second wave feminist movement of the ‘60s and ‘70s, when women banded together to initiate change and challenge conventional rules. The New Feminist wears jewelry that is often expressive, bold and delivers a sense of empowerment.
1. Susanne Klevorick
Feminine and mysterious, The New Feminist chooses jewelry to reflect her changing personality. She is self-aware and not afraid to express her different sides and moods. She chooses earrings that are edgy in their shape but also juxtapose the softness of rose gold with the timeless power of black.

As a testament to her inner strength, she wears this bold signet ring with a lion that symbolizes dignity and courage, as well as stars that provide guidance and direction. It says to the world (and herself), “I am brave and can face any challenge placed in front of me.”

Everyone around her knows “who’s the boss” — especially when she spells it out for them in her necklace. She loves a playful take on the more serious side of her goals and her support of other women. But this doesn’t mean she should be taken lightly: she’s tough when she needs to be.

Exceeding Every Expectation: How Wilkerson Helped d’Original Jewelers Achieve an Outstanding Retirement Sale
When David Rees decided to retire after 34 years of serving Bellevue, Washington’s Eastside, he and his wife knew their exit from d’Original Jewelers needed to honor their decades-long commitment to customers while meeting their financial goals. Since opening in 1990, David had built a reputation as one of the area’s most trusted names for diamonds, custom jewelry, and repairs.
Understanding that a successful retirement sale requires more than just discounting merchandise, David chose Wilkerson to manage his transition. What impressed him most was their attention to detail, particularly in accounting and sales projections. The results far exceeded his expectations — the sale significantly outperformed projections, delivering exceptional financial results that surpassed his retirement goals.
“They were always there for support. If we needed anything, they were able to accomplish that,” David shares. For jewelers contemplating retirement, David’s experience demonstrates Wilkerson’s proven ability to deliver outstanding results while providing comprehensive support throughout the entire process. His recommendation? “100% yes.”
