Since 1981, Forsythe Jewelers, owned by Andrea and Ray Bragg, has been bringing the world’s best designer jewelry and gifts to Hilton Head Island. Carrying the most popular designer brands, this family-owned business provides a leisurely, small-town shopping experience to everyone who enters the store, whether you’re looking to buy something or simply window shopping. Over the past four decades, Forsythe Jewelers has established itself as an island landmark, and its name is synonymous with fine shopping on Hilton Head.

This spring, Forsythe Jewelers is hosting three must-attend events that are designed to dazzle even the most discerning jewelry lover and bring a little bling to your spring.

To kick things off, April 13-16, during RBC Heritage Week, be sure to visit the Forsythe Jewelers Roberto Coin Pop-Up Shop at the 1 & 9 Village, located between the first and ninth hole on the Harbour Town Golf Links.

“At this annual event, we will be showcasing some of Roberto Coin’s new collections along with some classics,” Andrea Bragg said. “We invite everyone who attends the golf tournament to stop by, say hello, and take home the very best souvenir you can get from Heritage.”

The Roberto Coin brand was born in 1996 and is named for its founder. Inspired by his innate love for the world of art and fashion, Roberto Coin’s designs have become recognized in the jewelry world as true works of art. In 1996, Roberto Coin started signing his jewels by setting a small ruby hidden on the inside of each piece, allowing the distinguished gem to kiss the skin. Since then, this tradition has become his exclusive signature.

On May 12, from 2:30-4:30 p.m., Forsythe Jewelers is hosting another don’t-miss event: a Marco Bicego trunk show, where the designer will make a personal appearance.

“Forsythe Jewelers has the prestigious honor of being selected as one of four stores where Marco Bicego will be making a personal appearance and hosting a trunk show during his visit to the States in May,” Andrea said. “We invite everyone to come and meet the designer, shop from a beautiful trunk full of his designs, and enjoy some bubbles and light bites. It will be a very celebratory atmosphere, especially if you already own one of his pieces. Then, too, if you buy one of his pieces at the trunk show, Marco will sign it by engraving his initials on the piece.”

Marco Bicego Collections are only made in 18K gold that is melted, cast, and coiled into final pieces all under one roof—the Bicego Factory, founded in 1958 by Bicego’s father. In January 2000, after working by his father, Marco launched his own brand. The brand’s finish is what sets Marco Bicego apart and truly makes each piece unique and recognizable.

On June 22 and 23 at Forsythe Jewelers, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m., look forward to a unique BYOB event featuring the designs of Sethi Couture. Not your typical BYOB, Sethi Couture’s BYOB is about bringing your own bands to create your own stack story.

“For this event, we invite you to bring in your personal collection of rings and bands, and the Sethi Couture designers will mix, match, and help you style your very own stack,” Andrea said. “It will be lots of fun and light-hearted because Sethi Couture is all about celebrating and elevating the everyday with jewelry that is meant to be collected and enjoyed—not tucked away and only worn occasionally.”

While Forsythe Jewelers has always been a family business, the Braggs purchased the business from the original family in 2015. Andrea started working at the store in 2001 in sales, and Ray, who enjoyed a 30-year career on the island as a golf pro, recently joined the Forsythe team.

“I’m learning every aspect of the business, from shipping to sales to management,” Ray said, “but my favorite part is that like my golf career, I enjoy customer service and building relationships. It’s very fulfilling because everyone who comes in is happy and typically celebrating something special.”

Andrea shared that the one thing she can assuredly say about everyone who works at Forsythe Jewelers is, “We strive to provide five-star customer service for every client by helping them find the perfect item or gift to cherish for years to come.”
