LAFAYETTE, LA – Stuller Inc. has added lab-grown diamonds to its assortment of melee and large diamonds.
“Lab-grown diamonds are optically, visually and chemically identical to natural diamonds,” says Stanley Zale, vice president of diamonds and gemstones, Stuller. “We want to give jewelers every option they need to thrive, and many of our customers already offer these diamonds with great success.”
The lab-grown diamonds, which are grown in the United States, are accompanied by:
- A certificate from the Gem Certification and Assurance Lab (GCAL)
- A unique inscription on the girdle
- A distinctly labeled package
“We do treat these stones differently than our natural inventory,” says Zale. “They are housed in a separate vault, stored and shipped in a distinct, blue acrylic box, and are always handled separately.”

Closing With Confidence: How Bailey's Fine Jewelry Achieved Outstanding Results With Wilkerson
When Trey Bailey, President and CEO of Bailey's Fine Jewelry, decided to close the Crabtree location in Raleigh, North Carolina after 15 years, he knew the decision needed to be handled with intention and professionalism. The goal was clear: exit the location while maintaining financial strength and honoring the store's legacy.
Having worked with Wilkerson successfully in the past, Bailey understood the value of their comprehensive approach. "They understood both the emotional and financial sides of the store closing sale," Trey explains. "Their reputation for professionalism, results and care made it a very easy decision."
The results exceeded expectations. Wilkerson helped Bailey's sell through significant inventory while maintaining the dignity of the closing process. "They don't just run a sale, they help close a chapter in the best way possible," Bailey says, strongly recommending Wilkerson to any jeweler facing a similar transition.
