Trust is our objective: trust in the high quality of our gemstones and attention to detail, and trust with handling customers’ sentimental pieces of jewelry.
In 1966, Boone & Sons Jewelers founder French Boone opened his first store in Washington D.C. with the goal of creating a family business that offers fine jewelry at great prices and even better customer service. In the decades and generations that followed, Boone & Sons expanded to Chevy Chase and McLean, all the while maintaining the small business and family atmosphere that sets them apart. Today, each of the three locations has a family member on-site and almost every employee has been there for a decade or more.Â
“Trust is our objective: trust in the high quality of our gemstones and attention to detail, and trust with handling customers’ sentimental pieces of jewelry,” says Vice President and G.I.A. graduate gemologist Erik Boone, who manages the McLean store. “Whether it is an engagement ring you no longer wear or your grandmother’s jewelry that we are redesigning and repurposing, we treat every piece of jewelry as if it is our own.”
Boone and Sons is proud to handle every aspect of the jewelry business from on-site services, such as watch repair, jewelry repair and appraisals, to gifts ranging from several hundred dollars to several hundred thousand dollars.Â
“We want to be your personal jeweler, from A to Z,” says Erik, one of eight members of the third generation of Boones who are leading the company into the next 50 years of service in the D.C. area.
