For those of you who may have noticed last fall, the Kaminski Jewelry store on Post Oak Tritt Road closed after around three decades in business. Just across the street, Jennifer Cortez, a former Kaminski manager, has opened her own store, Jennifer’s Jewelers.
Next Tuesday, April 23, she’s having a ribbon-cutting event with the Cobb Chamber of Commerce on hand. The ribbon-cutting takes place from 11-12 at her store, 2790 Sandy Plains Road.
She says she’s been in the business for 20 years, holds an accounting degree from Kennesaw State and is accredited by the Gemological Institute of America. Jennifer’s Jewelry provides bridal jewelry, precious metals, diamond jewelry, gemstone jewelry, loose stones, appraisal services, estate liquidation, watch services and jewelry repair:
“Being an independent jeweler is a very special business. I get joy out of knowing I had a big part of making life’s most memorable moments very special to so many people and I look forward to providing beautiful jewelry and great services for many many years to come.”
