Kyle Edward Fine Jewelry to Close Salisbury Store
The company’s Easton location will remain open.
Kyle Edward Fine Jewelry is holding a closing sale ahead of shuttering its store in Salisbury, Maryland.
Salisbury, Md.—Kyle Edward Fine Jewelry is closing its store in Salisbury, Maryland, after 12 years.
Owner Kyle Bounds said the closing will allow the team to focus on offering an elevated selection and “next-level” services at its store in Easton, Maryland, which will remain open.
Bounds opened the store in his hometown of Salisbury in 2013.
It developed a reputation for custom jewelry and “stunning” engagement rings, the store said.
His love for fine jewelry began in childhood with visits to his grandmother’s jewelry store. He got his education in Manhattan’s Diamond District and did his apprenticeship on 47th Street.
“We tap into the personal side of jewelry, creating pieces as memoirs or reflections of events past and present,” Bounds said of the company.
“Over the last 12 years, I have developed so many positive relationships with clients, which I hope to continue at the Easton store.”
Bounds thanked the community for their years of support, inviting them to visit the Easton location for future occasions.
The jeweler is hosting a closing sale, offering up to 70 percent off its inventory, including a selection of diamonds, gold, gemstones, and more.
To shop the sale, which has already started, customers can visit Kyle Edward Fine Jewelers located at 1131 South Salisbury Boulevard Suite A-3 in Salisbury.
