Utilizing the proceeds from the sale of his wife’s diamond and the cash value of his life insurance policy, Roland Brinker founded  Brinker Manufacturing Jewelers in Evansville, Indiana in 1972.  Fifty-two years later, the Brinker family continues to run the business, upholding the highest standards in the jewelery industry and nurturing personal relationships with customers and suppliers.

A personalized customer experience led to a unique opportunity at The Silverleaf Club. Kyle Brinker created a customized sterling silver belt buckle for a customer, which caught the attention of Ben Harman, owner of The Silverleaf Club. Their meeting sparked a friendship that eventually turned into creation of a high-end boutique inside the prestigious country club, offering an exclusive jewelry experience for members and their guests.
