Orinda, 6/29/2020 – Jewelry enthusiasts are often on the lookout for the latest pieces. However, considering how fleeting trends are, many of them end up amassing pieces they no longer want. Consignment selling allows jewelry owners to get rid of unwanted pieces without them going to waste.
Hilton House Designs in Orinda provides jewelry sellers the option to avail consignment selling. The trend-setting venture started 20 years ago as a way to recycle collectibles, antiques, jewelry, and even furniture. The award-winning business has expanded over the years, and is now a popular store among both sellers and buyers.
Talking about her vision for the business, the founder, Cyndi Hilton said, “Consignment selling is a green way of getting rid of unwanted items. With the sold item finding a place in someone else’s house, resources are saved because it no longer has to be disposed of.” The arrangement also supports recycling, as patrons who sell also buy other consignment pieces for their homes instead of making new purchases.
Consignment selling gives owners the advantage of anonymity. Hilton House Designs takes these consignment pieces and displays them in their showrooms. The store is responsible for marketing, storage, and sales.
When a sale is made, the seller and the business split the proceeds. The ratio is decided beforehand; usually the ratio is half and half. The owners get to cash in unwanted items anonymously and buyers get an almost-new statement piece on their hands.
Commenting on assortment on display, Hilton had to say, “The pieces are all premium designer items. They are like-new and customers get a great bargain as most items are under $5,000. If you were to visit these designer stores, new pieces of a similar style would be way more expensive.”
The merchandise on display gets sold out pretty quickly. Each time a customer or client comes into the store, they are likely to find new pieces on display.
With an established name in the market and many statement and designer pieces, Hilton House Designs is a popular choice for consignment sellers.
