(Press Release)
Pease & Curren, a precious metals refiner/recycler, has renewed its commitment to processing only conflict-free gold.

In recent years the topic of gold mining in high-risk regions has brought great controversy to the precious metals market. Sourcing from conflicted areas is known to often result in unfair human rights and labor practices. Since refiners are the “gatekeepers” of the industry, Pease & Curren has chosen to accept only reclaimed gold from businesses. We not only refuse any material that is affiliated with these areas but also not accepting any mined materials whatsoever.

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.”
