A tiny skyway shop with big sparkle, this family-run Minneapolis jewelry store celebrates 34 years in business serving a colorful history of Minnesota clients.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN, August 02, 2019 /Neptune100/ — Gene Gittelson opened his store “Gittelson Jewelers” 34 years ago this month and has been operating with his son, Michael Gittelson, for many years. The father-son team has been accompanied for several years by their business manager, Molly Braun, who runs the day to day operations of the store. The trio represents a family-run operation that engages in meaningful, face-to-face relationships with their clients that have spanned across generations.

Since its grand opening on August 7th, 1985 Gene Gittelson and family have been focused on creating memorable experiences and personal relationships with their clients, specifically in the engagement ring market. On their 30th anniversary, CBS Local reminisced about Gene Gittelson’s relationship with Kirby Puckett. The Gittelson family places their value to their customers on face-to-face interactions, specifically when consulting about diamonds, diamond rings and engagement transactions. A mission-driven tradition of bringing their family, into your family – a tradition that can be handed down in generations just like your grandmother’s original diamond ring.

In today’s market, Gittelson Jewelers recognizes the shift in online shopping and millennial preferences. This tiny jeweler has watched newspaper ads and signs in the window transform into social media influence, digital footprints and targeted search engine marketing as more people are purchasing diamonds online and seeking better price points and custom made solutions. Offering the ability to shop online with the small, family-run jewelry shop is an initiative that is offering more options every day to extend beyond their local and loyal customer base.

The Gittelson’s have also niched themselves into custom jewelry design and custom-designed engagement rings. This offers their clients a (soon hard to find) in-person relationship interested in guiding and educating them about the dynamic choices involved with milestone fine jewelry purchases. Custom engagement ring design can help take their clients’ vision and transform it through CAD design to a finished representation of love from concept to “I do”.

Gittelson Jewelers is celebrating 34 years in business in downtown Minneapolis with a storewide sale. They encourage you to stop in, say hello, get your questions answered and your jewelry cleaned while you are waiting.
