THERE IS NOTHING like a British royal wedding to start a trend, and Princess Beatrice’s nuptials had all the appropriate jewels—a legendary tiara, an engagement ring and wedding band designed by visionary Shaun Leane, and delicate yellow gold bracelets. These bracelets were not your conventional royal jewels; they were styles that your customers could wear every day (and Beatrice probably does). By wearing them to her wedding, Beatrice personalized her entire look. We predict they start a trend for dainty, lightweight bracelets that are accessibly priced and easy to wear, which is important with gold being up and the future uncertain.

Just ask Lesley Ann Davis, owner of Lesley Ann Jewels, an independent jewelry store that — until the end of 2023 — had quite a following in Houston, Texas. To spend more time with her four sons, all in high school, she decided to close her store. Luckily, she was familiar with Wilkerson and called them as soon as she knew she wanted to move on to bigger, better and more family-focused things. Was she happy with her decision? Yes, she was. Says Davis, “Any owner looking to make that life change, looking to retire, looking to close, looking for a pause in their career, I would recommend Wilkerson. Hands down!”
