Founded in 1948 by Anton Panowicz Sr., the local, family-owned jewelry store recently celebrated its 72nd anniversary serving the Thurston County community. After seven decades, Panowicz Jewelers still holds true to its founding: a legacy of quality, integrity and value — helping our customers commemorate the celebrations of life is our purpose, our reason for being.
“Twenty-twenty has been a year like no other,“ Leslie Panowicz laughs. “The silver lining is a renewed appreciation for family, home and the small joys in life. Most of us have slowed down in some way; enjoying more quiet moments with family, meaningful conversations with friends and thinking about how to celebrate those we love.”
“Throughout the years, we have helped many nervous individuals find that perfect engagement ring. Be it a proposal or another special moment, it is such an honor to help our customers find that special gift that is a tangible reminder of the love and appreciation they share.”
While many things have changed, there is much more that has remained constant at Panowicz. Their entire team has remained together, working both from home and in the store, helping customers through this time with continued commitment to outstanding service and care for their customers.
Leslie shared that customers will often recount a memory of when her grandfather or father helped them choose a special piece of jewelry. “These memories are so special and help us remember why we are here.” Leslie said. Panowicz Jewelers prides itself on helping create those memories.
