Canada-based jewelry retailer Spence Diamonds has announced plans to expand into the U.S.
market with stores opening in Austin, TX, on Nov. 7 and in San Jose, CA, on Nov. 10.

The company will open in Scottsdale, AZ, in the first quarter of 2017 and will soon announce additional markets, according to a press release.

The retailer calls itself a “jewelry disruptor” in part because of its line of “Spence Artisan Created Diamonds.”

“We have reimagined the experience of the diamond business by creating an environment that is open, bright and transparent,” said Jim Schneider, president of Spence Diamonds. “Watching a diamond being created from a ball of plasma while exploring jewelry in open cases without the traditional barriers is a refreshing concept.”

The stores will also sell traditional mined diamonds.

The company, founded in 1978, said it “has secured prime retail locations with high foot traffic including Santana Row in San Jose and The Domain in Austin.”

Ready to Move? Let Wilkerson Lead the Way

When Brockhaus Jewelry planned their move to a new location in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman knew exactly who to call for their moving sale: Wilkerson. "Having worked with Wilkerson before, choosing them again made perfect sense," says Shipman. "And our second partnership was even better than the first." The sale exceeded expectations, thanks to Wilkerson's strategic approach - starting with Brockhaus's existing inventory before carefully supplementing with additional pieces. "They made everything simple," Shipman adds. "From the outstanding consultant to the detailed planning, the entire process was seamless." It's why both partners enthusiastically recommend Wilkerson to fellow jewelers planning a move, remodel, or retirement sale.
