Swarovski (Wattens, Austria) has opened its largest-ever flagship store on New York’s Fifth Avenue. The two-level, 14,400 square foot store “is like stepping into a vibrant jewelry box filled with treasures – including the largest crystal chaton ever cut,” the retailer said in a news release.

The store was designed by Creative Director Giovanna Engelbert, who said the store “aims to spark wonder while paying homage to the shimmering beauty of crystal.

“As New York is an iconic fashion capital and also feels like a second home to me, it is exciting to see our flagship on 5th Avenue come to life,” said Engelbert. “I wanted to create the experience of entering a huge crystal – the world of Swarovski – and to ignite the imagination from the moment you step into the store. From the grand staircase in the shape of an octagon to the use of quilted velvet and silk throughout the store, all details are intended to provide customers the feeling of being inside a luxurious jewelry box. My vision was to produce a modern, joyful, elevated and futuristic design, which mirrors the light, energy and colors of New York.”

Overall, Swarovski has about 6600 points of sale (including 2300 owned stores) in more than 150 countries.

Ready to Move? Let Wilkerson Lead the Way

When Brockhaus Jewelry planned their move to a new location in Norman, Oklahoma, owners John Brockhaus and Brad Shipman knew exactly who to call for their moving sale: Wilkerson. "Having worked with Wilkerson before, choosing them again made perfect sense," says Shipman. "And our second partnership was even better than the first." The sale exceeded expectations, thanks to Wilkerson's strategic approach - starting with Brockhaus's existing inventory before carefully supplementing with additional pieces. "They made everything simple," Shipman adds. "From the outstanding consultant to the detailed planning, the entire process was seamless." It's why both partners enthusiastically recommend Wilkerson to fellow jewelers planning a move, remodel, or retirement sale.
