(PRESS RELEASE) A new combination shear and long nose pliers that is especially great for amateur and professional jewelry makers who travel with their projects for business and pleasure has been introduced by Xuron Corp. of Saco, Maine.
The Xuron Model 485C Combination Shear-Long Nose Pliers features a cutter and chain nose pliers in a single tool for cutting, holding, bending, and forming wire used in all types of jewelry making projects. The cutter is ideal for bead wire and soft gold or silver wire up to 12 gauge (2.05 mm dia.) and the pliers have smooth and rounded outside edges that form without marring.

Manufactured from durable high carbon steel with a non-glare black finish, it has soft Xuro-Rubber cushioned grips and a return spring.
The Xuron Model 485C Combination Shear-Long Nose Pliers sells for $19.75 (sugg. list). A product catalog is available online and in print.

Ready to Relocate? Wilkerson Makes Your Move Seamless
When Brockhaus Jewelry decided to leave their longtime West Main Street storefront for a standalone building elsewhere in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman faced a familiar challenge: how to efficiently reduce inventory before the big move. Their solution? Partnering with liquidation specialists Wilkerson for a second time.
"We'd already experienced Wilkerson's professionalism during a previous sale," Shipman recalls. "But their approach to our relocation event truly impressed us. They strategically prioritized our existing pieces while tactfully introducing complementary merchandise as inventory levels decreased." The carefully orchestrated sale didn't just meet targets—it shattered them.
Asked if they'd endorse Wilkerson to industry colleagues planning similar transitions—whether relocating, retiring, or refreshing their space—both partners were emphatic in their approval. "The entire process was remarkably straightforward," Shipman notes. "Wilkerson delivered a well-structured program, paired us with a knowledgeable advisor, and managed every detail flawlessly from concept to completion."
