In their own words

“We are a big diamond store, a big bridal store—a great percentage of what we do is in those categories. We’re more of a comfortable, warm, fuzzy feel jewelry store. It’s not that mass-produced, get them in, put them in car-selling mode selling a commodity. It’s more about relationship-building, understanding what the client is after, and being good listeners. Guiding with experience, but getting a sense of who the person is and what they came in for. We’ve been around for a long time, and we want them to feel welcome. We treat everyone the same, they’re all going to get the Boudreaux’s touch.”

Jason’s Interview with Donny

Jason

Here we are from Meet the Jewelers talking to Donny from Boudreaux’s Jewelers. Can you tell us a little bit more about your history?

Donny

Boudreaux’s Jewelers was founded in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1933 by my grandfather. We've continued the family tradition now into our fourth generation. We've had our bumps and bruises along the way--nothing's easy in the business. When you're working with family, it's challenging, but there's a lot of benefits as well. Carrying on a family tradition and trying to serve our clients, we expect that tradition to continue into the next generation.
