(PRESS RELEASE) HOUSTON, TX — For 43 years, I W Marks Jewelers has provided generations of Houstonians with timeless, custom designs and offers the very best in fashion jewelry, fine jewelry, watches and more. Most recently, the full-service, family-owned and operated jewelry retailer launched its first e-commerce website, allowing shoppers in Houston and beyond to purchase luxury jewels online.

“You have to evolve as a business,” said Brad Marks, owner of I W Marks. “For us, that means putting our product online so we can reach customers who want to shop from anywhere and at any time.”

Founded in 1978 by Diane and Irv Marks, I W Marks has grown from a small, 500-square-foot store to today’s 7,500 square-foot storefront located at 3841 Bellaire Blvd. in Houston. Brad Marks, son of Diane and Irv, took over the family business in 2008 and has continued to uphold the brand’s reputation of first-class customer service. I W Marks offers a wide selection of jewelry for every taste, budget and occasion, and has a team of in-house master craftsmen that can design pieces to create something new or give an old piece new life. In addition to fashion jewelry from designers such as Mattia Cielo, Suzanne Kalan and Kimberly McDonald and bridal pieces from Precision Set, I W Marks is part of the worldwide network of Official Rolex Jewelers and specializes in selling and servicing the finest luxury watches such as Zenith, Tudor and Raymond Weil and signature IWM Watches.

With an emphasis on service and integrity, the I W Marks family continues the legacy of giving back to the community in which it serves, garnering multiple honors including a five-time recipient of the Business Committee for the Arts, Inc., FORBES Magazine’s national Business in the Arts Award and the Jefferson Award for community service.

“It’s at our family’s core to provide value and transparency to our customers,” said Marks. “Without this foundation of quality service and honesty, we wouldn’t be where we are today.”

Time for More “Me Time”? Time to Call Wilkerson

Rick White, owner of White’s & Co. Jewelry in Rogers, Ark., knew it was time to retire. Since the age of 18, jewelry had been his life. Now it was time to get that “me time” every retailer dreams about. So, he chose Wilkerson to manage his going-out-of-business sale. White says he’d done plenty of sales on his own, but this was different. “Wilkerson has been a very, very good experience. I’ve had the best salespeople in the history of jewelry,” he says. “I recommend Wilkerson because they are really the icon of the jewelry business and going-out-of-business sales. They’ve been doing it for decades. I just think they’re the best.”
