Legacy

Since 1932, generations of Portland families entrusted Margulis Jewelers with meaningful jewelry purchases—for engagements and weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and other milestone celebrations. Long known for original designs and custom jewelry, the store maintained an on-premise atelier where original and custom designs were created by gemologists, goldsmiths, model makers, and engravers employing old-world techniques. With its beautifully visible presence on Southwest Broadway in Downtown Portland, Margulis Jewelers attracted a clientele from all over the world.

Margulis Jewelers was the first in Oregon to offer vintage jewelry in an upscale setting.
