Business Philosophy
"My clients get precisely what they want, usually custom made, not what I have in stock. I stress education, personal service and attention to detail. Very low inventory and low overhead keeps me highly competitive in the new jewelry marketplace."
How does your business benefit from being a Polygon member?
"Polygon gives me immediate access to goods that meet the precise specifications mutually agreed between my client(s), all variables considered and me. The volume of goods offered at any one time is reassuring to the client that their stone has been specially chosen. Timeliness, efficiency and accuracy of the search are critical factors in my successful sales rate of approximately 92%. Personal relationships with vendors cull out marginal stones and are a value added to membership in the network."
