(PRESS RELEASE) FORT SMITH, ARKANSAS — After 109 years of loyal service, the Newton family has announced their retirement and will soon close the doors of Newton’s Jewelers for good. But, not before celebrating their community and beloved customers with a grand liquidation event.

A Respected History and Staple in the Community

Founded by George H. Newton in 1914, Newton’s Jewelers quickly established a reputation as a place where folks could go for fine jewelry and unparalleled service. Throughout the years, the store’s standing within the community of Fort Smith blossomed. People loved the attentive and friendly service they received at Newton’s Jewelers, where they truly felt like family. As Newton’s evolved over the years, the reach of the business expanded until Newton’s Jewelers had customers in over 40 states. The trust and connection the entire Newton family created with their customers led to close friendships over the decades. To this day, the Newton family considers their customers to be the life and breath of their business.

Serving Multiple Generations of Customers

With the passage of seasons and generations, people who were once customers’ children became customers themselves, making Newton’s Jewelers the trustworthy and generational family jeweler of Fort Smith. The Newtons have felt incredibly honored to serve their community and feel blessed to be supported in return.

When reflecting on the store’s history, his family and the community, Kelly Newton said, “The number one thing is that we’ve always worked our hardest to make sure our customers and community know how much we truly appreciate them. We’ve been so wonderfully blessed – by our customers, by our community – it’s difficult to even express how much they really mean to us. We’ve served multiple generations of families and gotten to know them well. Many of them have become our friends and we deeply cherish that.”

The closing sale will begin Thursday, April 6th, with doors opening at 10:00am. The inventory will include millions of dollars in collections of stunning diamond jewelry, engagement rings, precious gemstones, birthstone jewelry and much more. “We’re opening the vaults and offering unique pieces even our loyal customers have never seen. I want everything sold quickly, so we are putting our best discounts out there,” Kelly Newton said. “This sale is going to blow folks away – it’s really going to be something to see!”

This will be the perfect opportunity to pick up a keepsake or to buy for future celebrations and holidays.

She Wanted to Spend More Time with Her Kids. She Called Wilkerson.

Your children are precious. More precious than gold? Absolutely! Just ask Lesley Ann Davis, owner of Lesley Ann Jewels, an independent jewelry store that — until the end of 2023 — had quite a following in Houston, Texas. To spend more time with her four sons, all in high school, she decided to close her store. Luckily, she was familiar with Wilkerson and called them as soon as she knew she wanted to move on to bigger, better and more family-focused things. Was she happy with her decision? Yes, she was. Says Davis, “Any owner looking to make that life change, looking to retire, looking to close, looking for a pause in their career, I would recommend Wilkerson. Hands down!”
