Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Our retail shop in Chatham was opened in 1999; prior to that we were exclusively a wholesale business selling to over 250 stores and catalogs nationwide since 1986.
What is your primary product or service?
sterling silver jewelry
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
Unlike other retailers, we began as a manufacturer and we still design and make our sterling silver jewelry at our own studios. That experience introduced us to many other designers with whom we established long-term relationships. We have high-quality products at the very best prices. New designers are always welcome to show us their work, but only few are chosen to be included in our collections. All new work is vetted for quality and value.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
one location at this time, with plans for possible expansion.
