The story of Spiegel and Son Jewelers began in 1947 when my late father, Martin Spiegel, a World War II refugee, immigrated to America from his native Czechoslovakia. In 1950 he opened a small jewelry shop in downtown Cleveland.

My father was talented, hard-working, and honest to a fault. He ran the business as a repair shop working primarily for local retail jewelry stores. A gifted goldsmith and accomplished diamond setter, my father quickly earned a sterling reputation as someone who got work done flawlessly, on time, and at a very fair price. He also started a modest, word-of-mouth retail business selling engagement rings, wedding bands, and other diamond and colored gem jewelry to the public. My father's retail clients enjoyed his European craftsmanship and honesty. They also appreciated his friendly, easy- going demeanor, which never pressured anyone into a purchase.

In 1993, shortly after graduating from The Ohio State University, I joined my father in business. Although time has marched on, and both the jewelry business and the world's business changing radically, our recipe for success has remained the same: exceptional jewelry, complete honesty, superior value.

As we look to the future our excitement is building. Launching a brand new Web site, opening a new showroom in Beachwood, and offering new lines of gorgeous jewelry are just some of our new and exciting endeavors. But as much as things change, our practices of integrity, ethics, personalized service, and treating every customer like a member of our family, will continue to stay the same.

Shopping at Spiegel and Son Jewelers is a different experience than going to a large, chain jewelry store. We are a family-owned business and committed to providing a personalized experience. With more than 60 years in the business serving Cleveland customers, we've built a strong reputation for providing exceptional customer service. We pride ourselves on being honest, transparent and sincere. And, it's our goal to educate every customer who walks through our door so they can make informed decisions. By staying true to our values, we continue to build lasting relationships with our customers.

In addition to specializing in unique, custom-designed pieces, we carry many lines of fine jewelry, including: Elma Gil, Epoque, Gregorio Fine Jewelry, Timeless Designs, Tom Kruskal, Designs by Vatche, Sara Blaine, Majestic, KC Designs, Benchmark and Zina. We stock diamond necklaces, earrings, bracelets and a wide selection of pearl and colored stone jewelry. Other services we offer include: jewelry repair, jewelry appraisals, and pearl stringing.
