Our Story

Mitchell’s Jewelry is a family-owned jewelry store located at 218 East Main Street in historic downtown Norman. We are proud to be the 2008 Readers’ Choice selection for Norman’s Best Jewelry Store. We have been providing fine jewelry, custom design and quality repair work to our customers since 1981. It is all for you and because of you that we now serve you in our newly renovated store. Our goal was simple – a luxurious space to offer an expanded line of favorites and an opportunity to add fabulous new lines for you. Additionally we wanted to give you a space to get up close and personal with our Antwerp diamonds and our Diamond Rooms do just that. We welcome you to come in to see what you have inspired.

Our affiliation with Independent Jewelers Organization, Jewelers of America and Oklahoma Jewelers Association allows us to continually educate our employees and ourselves and in turn give you the benefit of that knowledge. Our dedication to serving you is one of the many things that separate us from the crowd of retailers vying for your business. Jewelry is more than elegant ornamentation; it can be an heirloom we pass down from generation to generation, a token of affection given to someone special or a reward for ourselves. Whatever the celebration, jewelry says it all.

Please feel free to contact any of our staff if you have any questions or would like to set up an appointment before or after our regular business hours. Thank you for visiting our website and for the opportunity to serve you.
