CELESTIAL BODIES SUCH AS stars and comets are symbols that date back to when Coco Chanel launched her only diamond collection in 1932 (read more about it here). During the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, Chanel ambassador and actress Margaret Qualley and the multi-talented Greta Gerwig, who acted as president of the 2024 Cannes Jury, shone like the stars that harked back to Chanel’s 1932 collection. They both looked heavenly in pieces from the Étoile Filante (translating to shooting star) High Jewelry collection.

Qualley got in on the trend toward bejeweled hair ornaments by wearing the headband from the twinkling Étoile Filante collection to the Kinds of Kindness red carpet with diamond and pearl earrings and a light pink Chanel tulle gown that had an ethereal feel.

Gerwig went big and bold with the statement-making necklace from the same collection in platinum and diamonds that encircled her neck with a collar, which then dipped down to the centerpiece of Chanel’s trademark stars in different sizes on the Megalopolis red carpet.

The magic of the evening sky continues to be a popular direction for renowned houses and independent designers alike, and Chanel’s iconic pieces will always shine on as the pieces to covet and entrance those who can purchase them or view them up close and personal.

You Wouldn’t Cut Your Own Hair. Why Run Your Own Retirement Sale?

After being in business for over a quarter of a century, Wayne Reid, owner of Wayne Jewelers in Wayne, Pennsylvania, decided it was time for a little “me time.” He says, “I’ve reached a point in my life where it’s time to slow down, enjoy a lot of things outside of the jewelry industry. It just seemed to be the right time.” He chose Wilkerson to handle his retirement sale because of their reputation and results. With financial goals exceeded, Reid says he made the right choice selecting Wilkerson to handle the sale. “They made every effort to push our jewelry to the forefront of the showcases,” he says, lauding Wilkerson for their finesse and expertise. Would he recommend them to other jewelers who want to make room for new merchandise, expand their business or like him, decide to call it a day? Absolutely he says, equating trying to do this kind of sale with cutting your own hair. “The results are going to happen but not as well as if you have a professional like Wilkerson do the job for you.”
