Steve Samaras: The Davids have created the perfect store.
They’ve combined impeccably designed jewelry, exquisite materials for the
store’s interior and have created marketing and promotional events that embody
sheer excellence.

Penny Preville: Patti and Zoltan have mastered the use of
open space and created an environment that is simple, yet elegant. Everything
about their gallery is unique and one-of-a-kind. The imported woods and the
Fortuny chandelier and lighting give the store a warm and inviting feeling.

Michael Whiston: The handcrafted wooden interiors and
exteriors of Zoltan David make for a unique and inviting retail space. It is
clear that much labor and expense went into the design and fabrication of the
entry doors, display cases and furniture. The large-scale open wooden interiors
of Zoltan David fit well with the aesthetic of the Austin hill county where
they are located.

Tim Malone: From the front door, this store says get ready
to a new and more exciting jewelry experience. This store understands that
jewelry is all about selling fashion and design and they know how to do it with
great style.

Clifford Pugh: Owners Zoltan and Patti David break the rules
by showcasing empty space. The Davids do a great job of mixing upscale features
with homey touches, including a flat screen TV and the family dog, a wolf
hybrid named, appropriately, Cash.

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.”
