The Elegant Equestrian

Her simple, classic jewelry choices represent her adoration for the horse.
 

AS A CHILD, she fantasized about someday owning a steed until finally, her one true wish came to fruition. She competed in dressage, making sure her trainers knew of the strong relationship she had with her beloved equine, and now, she’s teaching her own children how to love the same animal who once appeared in her nightly dreams. 

1. Susan Wheeler

A natural, radiant beauty, her trademark look when dressed in her equestrian best includes a crisp white dress shirt and a pair of ethically-made silver cufflinks.

Double-sided, high-polished horse profile cufflinks made in ethically-sourced, Fairmined silver.

3. Piaget

A born competitor, the Elegant Equestrian values the importance of time, both with her family and the animals she loves — which is why she decided long ago that she needed a reliable, beautiful timepiece that represented who she was as a person.

Limited edition Altiplano 38mm timepiece from the Secrets & Lights collection with a cloisonné enamel horse design on the dial. Made in 18K white gold and set with 78 brilliant-cut diamonds.

4. Roberto Coin

Even though she’s a woman of relatively simple tastes, the Elegant Equestrian has — from time to time — splurged on herself when she sees something that speaks to her: a designer silk scarf, a pair of fine leather riding boots, or in this case, a gold and diamond bracelet.

Animalier collection 18K rose gold, diamond, and enamel flexible Horse Cuff bracelet with diamonds (0.54 TCW) and Coin’s hallmark ruby.

$27,000

When There’s No Succession Plan, Call Wilkerson

Bob Wesley, owner of Robert C. Wesley Jewelers in Scottsdale, Ariz., was a third-generation jeweler. When it was time to enjoy life on the other side of the counter, he weighed his options. His lease was nearing renewal time and with no succession plan, he decided it was time to call Wilkerson. There was plenty of inventory to sell and at first, says Wesley, he thought he might try to manage a sale himself. But he’s glad he didn’t. “There’s no way I could have done this as well as Wilkerson,” he says. Wilkerson took responsibility for the entire event, with every detail — from advertising to accounting — done, dusted and managed by the Wilkerson team. “It’s the complete package,” he says of the Wilkerson method of helping jewelers to easily go on to the next phase of their lives. “There’s no way any retailer can duplicate what they’ve done.”
