With one in every ten holiday shoppers buying jewelry as gifts this holiday season, many Texans will head to James Avery Craftsman, a family-owned jeweler based in the Texas Hill Country, to purchase the perfect gift according to three Texas-based newspapers.
James Avery was recently named the top jeweler of 2005 in Austin, Houston and San Antonio by readers of The Daily Texan, Houston Chronicle and the San Antonio Express-News.
James Avery differs from many other fine jewelers in that the company designs, creates, markets and sells its own jewelry line from its headquarters in Kerrville and five jewelry workshops located throughout Texas. With annual sales at approximately $85 million, the company employs more than 1,300 people nationally, 1,179 people in the state of Texas – and these numbers increase significantly during the busy holiday season. The company was also ranked as one of the nation's top 50 jewelers in 2004 by National Jeweler Magazine.
“We'd like to thank every one of our Texas customers for their wonderful support and patronage,” said Chris Avery, president and chief operating officer. “Since we first opened our doors in the Texas Hill Country more than half a century ago, our philosophy has always been to help each customer feel at home with warm hospitality and attentive personal service.”
Paul Avery, company vice president, said receiving the recognition in the three markets this year is a great compliment to James Avery. It is the first time that Houston has recognized the company as a top jewelry store.
