Dear friends,
Thirty years ago, I opened the doors of James Gattas Jewelers with a simple goal: to take care of people the way my father taught me. By then, I had spent more than two decades in the jewelry department of the Fred P. Gattas Company, and I knew that what mattered most wasn't what was in the cases. It was the people who walked through the door.
Since then, you have trusted us with some of the most meaningful moments of your lives: engagements, anniversaries, birthdays, and the heirlooms you pass down. Some of you first came in with your parents, and now you're bringing in your own children. I've never taken a single one of those moments for granted.
Today, I'm sharing some personal news. After 30 years at James Gattas Jewelers and more than 50 years in this business, I'm retiring.
This is a time for reflection and the start of a new chapter. I'm looking forward to more time with my family and friends, and more time giving back to the causes that have meant so much to our family. I still love what I do, and that's exactly why I want to celebrate it the right way: with you.
Celebrating with you
To say thank you, we're holding the biggest sale in our history. The James Gattas Retirement Sale runs through Thursday, December 31. Everything in the store is included, at up to 70% off. A few things to know before you visit:
What I'll miss most is being energized every day by our customers, our staff, our jewelers, and the creative work of designing something that's truly yours. But I want you to know this: you're in good hands. You'll be taken care of just as well as if I were taking care of you myself. And if anyone needs a hand around the store, I'll be happy to help.
Thank you, Memphis, for 30 wonderful years. I hope to see you soon.
Cheers to 30 years,
James Gattas

- Many of our pieces are one of a kind, and we're not able to hold items. If you see something you love, don't wait.
- We'll continue to offer repairs and custom work during the sale to a limited extent. Turnaround may take a little longer, and we'll always let you know what to expect.
- As always, we'll honor the warranty and service on every piece purchased from our store.
- It's going to be a busy season, and we thank you in advance for your patience. Our whole team, including my family, will be here to take care of you.
