Necklace from Camellia Westbury

INSIDE AND OUT

Layering is always a smart strategy for stylish dressing, whether it involves clothes or jewelry. Camellia Westbury’s pieces place semiprecious stones within jeweled cages, for a layered effect with tons of dimension and versatility. The handmade pieces have a bohemian, artful look and each one is different from the next. Designs from the Quantum collection feature a collage of neutral stones — amber, crystal quartz, smoky quartz, red agate, yellow jade and hematite — that are indispensible year-round. camelliawestbury.com

I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
