When it comes to colored gemstones, go bold or go home.

COLORED GEMS REMAIN popular, but the two strongest trends in this area right now are in direct opposition to each other: sedate greens and blues on one side. and shockingly bright pink, orange, and Pantone’s 2023 color of the year, Viva Magenta, on the other. When you have an uncertain customer looking for color, ask them how they want the hue of their new jewel to make them feel. Today’s shoppers are all about the vibe, so find out what they want and then make it happen.

Serene Queen

This trend feels like taking a deep breath in a quiet forest while surrounded by trees and moss. Deep blues, relaxed greens, tranquil teals; these calming colors carry a strong connection to the natural world and might even lower your blood pressure (although we can’t guarantee that). Perfect for emeralds, tanzanite, green garnets, malachite, and Montana sapphires.

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.”
