Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Fink’s Jewelers blog! Over there on the right sidebar is a brief history of Fink’s Jewelers. More information can be found on our website about our history, stores, vendors, events, jewelry care and quality and so much more! On top of that, many of our posts will give you an inside look at the jewelry industry from our corporate employees and a peek at our 14 stores through the eyes of our sales staff. You’ll also get the low down on Fink’s events and our publications via this site.

In addition to a blog, 2007 has brought a few other changes for Fink’s Jewelers. It all started in February with the grand opening of our second freestanding location in Forest, Virginia near Lynchburg. We refer to this location as Thomas Jefferson Crossings, or just Lynchburg. Per usual we gave away Fink's gift cards to the first customers there. And to celebrate further we even gave away a three stone Fink's diamond ring!

Then in May we moved our MacArthur Center location in Norfolk, Virginia within the mall. The new location is over 3,500 square feet!

This summer we closed our Crabtree Valley Mall location and chose to focus on the other three stores in the Raleigh, North Carolina area - Cary Towne Center, Triangle Town Center and The Streets at Southpoint. But we’re not done yet! Just this fall we opened a new store in Charlottesville, Virginia at Barracks Road!

In addition to stores opening, closing and moving, we've been busy with customer events in almost all our markets throughout the year and we’re just getting into the holiday season! Pictures and details will come soon, promise!
