(PRESS RELEASE) ERLANGER, KY — Jewel-Craft, the industry leader in jewelry manufacture and repair, has won the 2022 RJO Vendor of the Year Award for Service/Speciality Goods. This marks the fourth time that the company has won the RJO Vendor of the Year Award. Previously, Jewel-Craft received the award in 2009, 2019 and 2021.

For 75 years, Jewel-Craft has provided top-tier service in everything from jewelry manufacturing to custom design and beyond. In 1947, Earl Wesdorp founded the company in his small garage attic. He started with a pinch of money, some old tools and a heap of passion for serving his customers. Today, the third and fourth generations of the Wesdorp family continue the Jewel-Craft legacy.

Though the company has grown and flourished over the years, one thing has remained constant: the love of jewelry. Every single day, the team at Jewel-Craft adores honoring, preserving and sharing the craft of jewelry. Through their comprehensive services, Jewel-Craft can restore a piece’s radiant shine, create something magical from scratch, add a small but meaningful personal touch and more.

“It’s such an honor to receive this award for the third time in four years,” said Nick Wesdorp, senior director of administration. “I’m blown away that we’ve won it four times in total. Of course, we couldn’t have done it without the support of our customers, partners and especially our amazing employees, aka, the Pit Crew! They’re the absolute best in the business.”

This Third-Generation Jeweler Was Ready for Retirement. He Called Wilkerson

Retirement is never easy, especially when it means the end to a business that was founded in 1884. But for Laura and Sam Sipe, it was time to put their own needs first. They decided to close J.C. Sipe Jewelers, one of Indianapolis’ most trusted names in fine jewelry, and call Wilkerson. “Laura and I decided the conditions were right,” says Sam. Wilkerson handled every detail in their going-out-of-business sale, from marketing to manning the sales floor. “The main goal was to sell our existing inventory that’s all paid for and turn that into cash for our retirement,” says Sam. “It’s been very, very productive.” Would they recommend Wilkerson to other jewelers who want to enjoy their golden years? Absolutely! “Call Wilkerson,” says Laura. “They can help you achieve your goals so you’ll be able to move into retirement comfortably.”
