A Herald Promotional Feature:
Retirement Sale with items reduced by up to 50%
Silvano and Luisa Quirici opened their first jewellery store over 47 years ago in a small shop on South Terrace, next to where Gino’s is now. Remaining true to their values of hard work and old fashioned customer service, the young couple built up a successful business. Silvano became known as the Fremantle jeweller who enjoyed a challenge and would never say a job was too difficult, while Luisa skilfully managed the business and established the first of many long lasting customer relationships.
Things went from strength to strength for the pair and 2 years later they were able to move to larger premises at 71 Market Street, where the business remained for 14 years. During this time, Silvano and Luisa raised their three children Laura, Michael and Nadia. It was the time of the America’s Cup and Fremantle was booming.
In fact business was so good for Silvano and Luisa that they opened a second store, located in the Fremantle Malls, employing up to 8 staff. The children have at various times all joined the family business, with son Michael working alongside his father as a jeweller. Sadly, Silvano passed away from cancer in 1999 and Luisa closed the Market Street premises to concentrate on the one store. Silvano is still remembered fondly by many of his customers.
But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. Luisa has decided it’s time to retire and enjoy her golden years, and with the children moving into other careers, it means Quirici Jewellers will close its doors at the end of this year. “It will be a bittersweet time for us. We will truly miss all the wonderful customers and fellow Freo businesses that have made the past 47 years so special,” said Luisa.
To mark this occasion, Quirici’s is holding a Closing Down Sale – all stock must go. This is a genuine sale, with items reduced by up to 50%! Come in, grab yourself a bargain and say farewell to this Freo success story.
