About Melange Estate Jewelers

Our Service Pledge To You:
I want to make customers, not just sales! Customers are my business and I will do my best to return emails, answer questions and ship items within 24 hours.

About Us
Hello, my name is Sharon Blakeman, and thanks for looking at my store! I am an incorporated business, please write checks to: Melange, thank you! I have been in the jewelry industry since 1984 and started my business, Melange, Inc in 1998, selling both as a wholesale firm/broker and to the public at less than "retail" prices. (Low overhead allows me that luxury which I can pass along to you) My business philosophy is to work on small margins and turn items quickly, while putting customer service at the forefront. Your satisfaction is my ultimate goal. I want to make customers, not just sales!

I strive to offer unique pieces, and my grading of stones is very conservative. If ever there is a question, I will err on the side of caution. I am a member in good standing of many Jewelry trade organizations, such as the Jewelers Board of Trade, Illinois Jewelers Association, Women's Jewelers Association, Jewelers Ethics Association, a lifetime member of Polygon Trading Network and Verichannel, and am a graduate of the G.I.A.


While I appreciate and understand that everyone wants to feel that they are getting the "best deal", I price my items at a very small markup and focus on turning them over so I can buy more and sell more. I want my site to be a store, not a "museum"! If you compare the prices I am selling at for like items offered by other vendors, you will already find that they are a great buy. And on the same line, please do not be afraid if things seem "too cheap". I am not misrepresenting grading or the like to make a deal seem sweeter. Again, I am just hoping to make a little and pass along a deal!

Please note: I will not be participating in Ruby Lanes "Red Tag Day" Sales events. Why? Because my HIGHEST profit margin is LESS than the lowest "suggested" (30%) discount offered in these sales! :)
Have a great day
